The Rails LED troffer light is a recessed luminaire engineered to integrate seamlessly into modern architecture with both visual elegance and high-performance illumination. Designed with architectural intention, Rails redefines what recessed lighting can be by balancing sophisticated form with advanced optical technology. It features twin linear Anidolic optics paired with translucent horizontal panels that create a luminous, floating appearance—effectively eliminating harsh LED point-source glare while enhancing ceiling aesthetics.
With its slim 3.5-inch profile, Rails minimizes intrusion into the ceiling plane, making it an ideal choice where plenum space is limited. The precision Anidolic optics deliver an optimized batwing light distribution, achieving excellent work plane uniformity with max/min ratios under 1.5 and spacing up to 10 by 12 feet. In a typical open office environment, Rails delivers over 40 footcandles while maintaining energy density below 0.4 W/ft², ensuring high energy efficiency and visual comfort. The result is an ideal solution for applications requiring human-centric, evenly distributed, low-glare lighting.
Available in three architectural sizes—2x2, 1x4, and 2x4—the luminaire allows for design flexibility across various layouts, including continuous runs and grouping configurations. All sizes share the same refined performance and technology platform, with the 2x2 option offering a particularly compact form factor without sacrificing performance. Rails can be installed in both T-Grid and drywall ceilings using optional Trim or Trimless flange kits, and its construction supports quick installation with features like integral seismic restraint tabs and prewired electrical connections.
Crafted from formed 22-gauge steel with a high-reflectance diffuse white powder-coated finish, the housing is built for durability and visual appeal. The light engine uses precision-molded, high-transmittance acrylic lenses, ensuring exceptional optical clarity. Available in color temperatures of 3000K, 3500K, and 4000K with CRI options of ≥80 or ≥90 and R9 values up to ≥50, the LEDs are binned to a color accuracy of ≤2 SDCM. The long-life LED system supports lumen maintenance of L90 at 54,000 hours, ensuring reliable performance over time.
Rails also includes robust electrical components: high-efficiency drivers compatible with 120–277V and optional 347V transformers, power factor above 0.90, and low total harmonic distortion under 20%. Dimming options range from a standard 3% down to an ultra-low 0.1%, and surge protection meets ANSI/IEEE standards. A 6-foot prewired flex whip is available for easier installation. Emergency options include a 10W battery pack that delivers 90 minutes of output and an optional GTD switch that overrides dimming in emergencies.
This luminaire is designed for dry or damp indoor locations and can operate within ambient temperatures of 0–30°C (32–86°F). It is not suitable for chemically aggressive or natatorium environments. For maintenance, it should be cleaned with only a soft, slightly damp cloth to avoid surface damage.
Rails is UL listed in the U.S. and Canada, IC rated, and Chicago Plenum certified. Many configurations are DLC-qualified and LBC Declared, making it suitable for sustainable and performance-driven projects. Whether used in commercial offices, education, healthcare, or institutional interiors, Rails LED troffer offers an elegant convergence of advanced optical performance, minimalist design, and long-term energy savings.
