What are linear LED lights?

Linear LED lights are a common lighting solution in homes and industrial spaces. The shape and style of these lamps are quite simple, but this is often a great advantage, helping them to easily fit into the overall image of the space and create an effortless aesthetic image. It doesn't matter what style varies in your home, thanks to its non-committal design, linear LED lights can adapt to both modern minimalist and clean Scandinavian design. Such lamps can be customized by choosing different types, dimensions, designs and colors.

Linear LED lamps are suitable for indoor spaces, as they have a low resistance class index (IP), which indicates the lamp's resistance to moisture, temperature differences and dust. Apart from that, the body of such lamps is often made of high-quality aluminum and powder-coated, so it is very durable and resistant to environmental stimuli, such as dust or vibration. It is also great that the installation of these lamps is simpler than it seems, so you will be able to enjoy high-quality lighting in your spaces without much knowledge and effort.

 

What are the types of linear luminaires?

• Ceiling linear LED lights – these are lamps that are fixed right next to the ceiling, without leaving a gap between the ceiling and the upper part of the lamp body. ceiling lights it probably blends in with the ceiling, so it won't take up a lot of space in rooms with low ceilings and thus won't visually reduce the overall feeling of the size of the space. These lamps will also become a lifesaver when you want a sense of uniformity and cleanliness in the space and to keep the lighting details inconspicuous - a linear LED lamp installed at the ceiling will not stand out and will not overshadow other important details. In terms of maintenance, such a lamp will appeal to those who love cleanliness or save time in housework, because the surface of the lamp blends smoothly with the ceiling, thus not collecting dust and valuing your precious time.
• Hanging linear LED lights – it is attached to the ceiling with wires hanging lamp. Unlike a ceiling light that depends on the level of the ceiling, the height level of this light can be changed by adjusting the length of the wires, thus adapting to different situations and fulfilling various lighting ideas. Hanging light especially suitable for spaces with high ceilings, when you want to get brighter light on certain objects - for example, a low hanging lamp above a dining table, bar or desk. You can also play with different lamp levels when you want to emphasize their beauty - hanging lamps in tall rooms can form a whole solid line or triangle, and hanging lamps at different height levels can give meaning to the grandeur of the space and create a unique design detail.

 

Where can linear LED lights be used?

Linear LED luminaires have an elongated and narrow rectangular shape, so their parameters and the longitudinal LED lamp provide bright and even light, allowing you to illuminate long and wide spaces. In addition, the hanging level of the suspended linear lights can be adjusted and easily adapted to the height of your ceiling. With these benefits in mind, it's easy to see why these lights are the ideal choice for large, narrow and wide spaces such as:

• Factories, corridors or warehouses of industrial buildings, shopping centers and shops, office premises, closed parking lots, etc.

How to choose a linear LED light?

Although linear LED lamps usually remain close to the traditional original in their shape, dimensions and design, there are other important factors in the choice of lamp, the understanding and evaluation of which can lead to an easier and faster shopping process.

• Tipas. Before choosing a linear LED light, evaluate the space for which you are looking for the most suitable lighting solution. As we mentioned earlier, linear lights can be divided into two types: suspended and ceiling. If the rooms have higher ceilings, hanging lamps will probably be more suitable, as you will be able to adjust their height level and make proper use of the emitted light. If you want not to lose the space above the pendant lamp, choose a lamp that emits light not only downwards, but also upwards, thus emphasizing the effect of the size of the space. Meanwhile, in rooms with standard or lower ceilings, in most cases, ceiling lights will save visual space and not interfere with movement.
• Illuminated area. After assessing the size of the premises, calculate how many lamps you will need to achieve high-quality lighting and how they can be arranged without creating the image of a "congested" space. Here, the illuminated area indicator indicated on the lamp will be especially helpful, with the help of which you will be able to ensure that all corners of the room will receive enough light. As a rule, linear luminaires are characterized by an extremely large illumination area.
• Design and color. Although linear lamps do not stray far from the traditional version in their appearance, their manufacturing materials and color give the lamps a gentle uniqueness, which is of great importance in interior design.
• Gaul. Consider the power indicator (W), which indicates the amount of electricity used. As you know, LED bulbs will surprise you with much better light quality and lower electricity consumption than conventional incandescent bulbs.
• Light flux. The luminous flux of the light bulb will have a significant influence on the brightness and intensity of the lighting. The higher the lumen (lm) number, the brighter the light will be. Extremely bright light is recommended in industrial premises, so for domestic premises we advise you to choose lamps with a medium or lower luminous flux. However, there is an exception to this condition: in the case of ceilings higher than 3 meters or the installation height of the luminaire, the light flux should be correspondingly higher.
• Color of light. Choose the color of the light taking into account the room where the lamp will be placed. The color of the light can contribute to your mood and mood, so rest areas such as the bedroom or living room should be lit in a warmer shade, while the kitchen and bathroom should be lit in neutral white. Cold white light is perfect for production and commercial premises.
• Dimerization. If you want to change the mood and atmosphere in the spaces, use the dimming function, which allows you to adjust the light flow according to your needs. Such control will add more color to the rooms, as the work space can instantly become a peaceful rest area. You can control such lights with the help of the Switch Dimmer system integrated in the product or with the help of external controls. Please note that only luminaires marked with the dimming function must have it.
