Whether it’s kitchen knives or a door handle, good design always has the end user front and center. And light fixtures are no different.
If you’ve ever dealt with a light fixture that was a giant pain in the you-know-what to install, then you were probably dealing with a fixture designed by someone who hasn’t been within 10 miles of an actual installation.
Now, it might seem difficult to identify these products, because it’s not like you can see into the mind of the designer, right?
Fortunately, well-designed products are easier to spot than you might think. Look for thoughtful features that make your life easier. That’s a quick tell, demonstrating that the product was designed with plenty of input from folks who’ve spent hundreds of hours doing installs.
Here’s an example of some of these “only an installer would know to include this” features:
Our high bay fixtures have 10-foot power cords, so the installer can use the stock cord that comes on the fixture.
Our fixtures have multiple mounting options to fit the environment.
They’re designed for compact shipping.
Installation instructions are clear, simple, well-written, and with illustrations that are actually helpful. (So are our user guides.)
Smart features on our fixtures can be set up via app, making the process quick and easy.
