Detailing guides.
Every detailing guide on linear-led.com, in one place.
The finish of linear LED lighting depends on detailing: how fittings meet plasterboard, timber, concrete and joinery, how lines turn corners and stop, and how drivers and access are handled. These guides set out the detailing decisions to resolve at design stage so that the installed result matches the render.
What these guides cover
- Ceiling and wall build-ups and cut-outs
- Junctions, corners, ends and alignment
- Driver location, access and maintenance
