Troughlight brackets.
A range of troughlight brackets are available.
We offer you a range of troughlight brackets. As standard we supply straight brackets with a reach of 200mm. This distance is perfect for most trough light installations.
Some customers need longer brackets to overcome ledges, guttering or other obstructions. To cater for this we have a range of different bracket lengths which overcome most installation requirements. Non standard brackets are subject to a small additional cost- no more than a few pounds.
All brackets can be colour coded to match your tough light extrusion.
Trough light bracket diagram
This diagram shows you the standard 200mm bracket normally supplied. Next to it is a longer 300m version. Both these trough light brackets are the straight version with an L shape. The curved bracket shown allows you to "lift" the tough light casing which is useful if you need to overcome an obstruction. The curved brackets are also a little more elegant.
Trough lighting brackets- why they are important.
The brackets on any troughlighting system are one of the most
important components. With a well designed trough light bracket system
you should have the facility to tilt and "aim" your trough light casing.
The ability to "aim" your troughlight is crucial. Cheap, fixed angle troughlights do not allow you to alter the angle of the light generated. This means that once the troughlight is fixed to the wall the lighting effect you get cannot be changed.
With tilting brackets you are able to move the troughlight casing through an arc- this lets you fine tune how your trough light works in relation to your sign.
In our experience every trough light installation is slightly different and almost every light installation can be improved upon IF you have the ability to move the beam of light generated by a trough light.
The ability to "aim" your toughlight also allows you to experiment; getting the perfect light spread simply by adjusting a few nuts. Deeper signs generally need to be aimed at a shallower angle whilst narrow signs can be given a more acute angle.
