The Mighty Mac recessed wall mount light is a robust, specification-grade lighting solution designed for high-security and behavioral health environments that demand strength, durability, and reliability. Precision-engineered for recessed installation, this luminaire combines rugged construction with a clean, tamper-resistant appearance suitable for correctional facilities, dayrooms, restrooms, corridors, and sally ports. Its seamless design ensures long-term structural integrity and protection against impact, while delivering consistent light output and performance in demanding architectural settings.
Constructed from one-piece, die-formed 14-gauge prime-grade material, both the housing and door are TIG-welded with continuously smooth seams and no post-grinding, providing exceptional rigidity and a refined, monolithic finish. This meticulous welding technique enhances structural durability and resists tampering or vandalism. The door is fully recessed and secured using hardened security fasteners, ensuring maximum resistance to forced entry or abuse.
The luminaire’s surface is protected by a TGIC polyester powder coat finish, applied after a five-stage pretreatment process that ensures superior adhesion and longevity. This finish delivers a 92% reflectance for optimal light distribution and has been tested to withstand 1,000 hours of salt spray exposure, ensuring corrosion resistance in challenging environments. Internally, a full-length concealed piano hinge provides smooth, secure operation without exposed hardware, maintaining both aesthetics and safety.
Designed for versatility, the Mighty Mac recessed wall mount light accommodates multiple lens configurations depending on project requirements. Lens materials range from prismatic or textured acrylic and polycarbonate to clear or textured tempered glass, in thicknesses from .125 inches to .375 inches. Kenall recommends combining a prismatic inner lens with a clear outer lens for balanced diffusion and impact protection; however, two clear lenses in combination are not available. Lens retention is achieved using vertically adjustable continuous “L” brackets made from prime-grade material and secured directly to the housing with through-studs, ensuring stability and consistent alignment over time.
A polyurethane foam luminous seal is integrated between the housing and base to eliminate light leaks, preserving optical uniformity and preventing dust or moisture intrusion. Electrical performance is equally reliable, supporting 120V or 277V AC input with an efficient power consumption of only 0.50 watts. Each luminaire is photometrically tested in accordance with IESNA LM-79-08 standards by an ILAC/ISO 17025-accredited laboratory, ensuring accurate light output data and verified performance.
The Mighty Mac recessed wall mount light is UL and cUL listed for damp locations, confirming its suitability for spaces where humidity and moisture exposure are common. Its combination of TIG-welded construction, robust lens retention, tamper-resistant hardware, and precise engineering makes it a trusted solution for correctional, healthcare, and institutional applications. By integrating strength, safety, and optical control, the Mighty Mac sets a benchmark for secure architectural lighting in environments where reliability is non-negotiable.
