Troughlight is an extruded aluminium overhead lighting system specially designed for the lighting of advertising hoardings, building signs & shop fronts & is Local Authority planning friendly.

This type of unit allows a method of constant shadow-free illumination without the bright spots normally associated with spotlights and provides highly effective illumination.

Weatherproof and available up to 6.1m continuous length or longer lengths supplied for coupling together with a joining pin. Our Troughlights are simple to install and can even be joined back to back by a double bracket for illuminating two sides of a hanging sign.

The unit is very simple to install offering different fixing bracket arrangements to enable the trough to be fitted directly to the wall or at a set distance from it. Complete with screw fixed metal end caps the unit is easily maintained by removing an end cap and sliding out the clear prismatic diffuser. Although the Troughlight system can be produced to match the exact length of your sign, it is always best to take into consideration the size of fluorescent tubes especially on smaller units. For example an 1100mm long unit will contain one 917mm (3ft) lamp. The best way round this would be to increase the length to 1250mm,allowing a 1222mm (4ft) lamp to be fitted. By sizing the length of your unit to suit the size of the fluorescent tubes will improve the level of illumination and prevent shadow gaps occurring.
