Distance between track and wall
TV background wall: The track is recommended to be 50-80cm away from the wall/TV cabinet, which will not affect normal viewing and also take into account the aisle lighting between the wall and the coffee table. It can be biased towards the coffee table or the TV wall
Sofa background wall:
(1) When there is no side hanging, the track is recommended to be 40-50cm away from the wall. When the sofa is sitting, the light is just behind the head and illuminates the sofa area to provide comfortable lighting
(2) When there is a side hanging, the side hanging thickness is within 30cm, and the track is recommended to be 60-70cm away from the wall. In front of the sofa, the light can cover the sofa area. At the same time, it is recommended to add spotlights to the side hanging and track Cross-lighting to reduce shadows
The distance between lights
Magnetic lights are easy to install and move, and can be DIY. There are floodlights, grille lights, folding grille lights, track spotlights, etc. It is recommended that the distance between the two lights be 50-80cm, so that the light is even and not overexposed. The lights can also be moved and increased or decreased according to the actual situation
Combination suggestions:
3-meter track wall washing: 2 floodlights + 2 folding grille lights
1.5-meter track lighting: 2 floodlights or 2 grille lights
Track installation method
Pre-embedded type: the board is pressed on the track (use wooden strips to make grooves when hanging the ceiling, put the track into the wooden grooves, and then seal the gypsum board with plaster).
A friend asked, what should I do if the ceiling has been hung? See below:
Plastering: The track is pressed on the board (after the ceiling is completed, grooves are cut according to the track, embedded in the track, and plastered after adding anti-crack nets. There is a construction process at the end of the article)
Ceiling: Applicable to no ceiling, the track is directly attached to the ceiling and fixed with expansion screws
Suspended: Applicable to no ceiling, fix the hanging wire to the ceiling with expansion screws, and then clamp the track on the hanging wire
Installation pit avoidance:
Before hanging the ceiling, you must first buy the track and compare it with the construction. It is inevitable that there will be errors when you reserve the size in advance and then buy the track.
Check whether the copper wire inside is complete after receiving the track to avoid rework due to missing copper wires.
