FAQ

WHAT ARE THE ADVANTAGES AND PURPOSE OF TRACK HEADS? 

 

The track head serves as the primary fixture in a track lighting system. Its purpose is to hold and direct the light source (typically a bulb) and provide adjustability to control the direction of light. Here are the main purposes of the track head in a track lighting system:

 

Light Direction and Flexibility: The track head's adjustable design allows you to direct light precisely where it's needed. You can rotate and tilt the head along the track to illuminate specific areas, objects, or architectural features. This flexibility makes track head lighting ideal for accentuating artwork, highlighting focal points, or providing task lighting. 

 

Task and Ambient Lighting: Depending on the type of bulbs used and the angle of the track heads, track lighting can serve various lighting purposes. It can provide focused task lighting for activities such as cooking, reading, or working. Alternatively, it can contribute to general ambient lighting by evenly distributing light across a room.

 

Accent Lighting: Track head lighting is often used to create dramatic lighting effects or highlight specific elements in a space, such as sculptures, decorative pieces, or architectural details. The adjustability of the track heads makes it easy to achieve the desired angle and intensity of light for accent lighting.

 

Versatility in Design: Track head fixtures come in a wide range of styles, finishes, and shapes, allowing you to choose fixtures that match your interior design aesthetic. This versatility ensures that track lighting can complement various decor themes and architectural styles.

 

Spatial Adaptability: The ability to move and adjust track heads along the track makes track lighting adaptable to changing room layouts or design preferences. As your needs evolve, you can easily reposition the track heads to suit the new arrangement.

 

Highlighting Retail and Commercial Spaces: Track head lighting is commonly used in retail stores, galleries, and commercial spaces to create appealing displays and enhance product visibility. The directional nature of track heads enables retailers to draw attention to specific merchandise or areas.

 

Ease of Installation: Installing track head lighting is generally simpler compared to traditional ceiling-mounted fixtures. This makes it an attractive option for homeowners and designers who want a customizable lighting solution without extensive installation work.

 

HOW FAR APART SHOULD I SPACE MY TRACK HEADS?

 

The arrangement of your track heads should be tailored to your specific lighting requirements. As a general guideline, about 30 cm of spacing per head is often recommended. Nonetheless, this arrangement may be adjusted based on the nature of your project. For instance, in settings like an art gallery, track heads might be positioned more closely to effectively illuminate larger artworks. As a rule of thumb, you can consider using up to 3 track heads for every meter of space.

 

ARE TRACK HEADS DIMMABLE?

 

Yes, certain track heads offer dimmable capabilities. You can find this information on our website product pages. Enabling dimming functionality for your track heads empowers you to regulate the intensity of illumination in your area. Lowering the dimness of the light contributes to a subdued and atmospheric ambiance, while maximizing brightness proves most effective for task-oriented lighting.
