How to Get Even Backlighting for Retail Signage and Display Graphics: A Design and Inspection Checklist from Structure to Power
A brand sign can look like a clean, even field of light in a rendering, and then look quite different once it’s installed in a store. The edges of the graphic are bright while the middle is dim. LED dots are visible in some spots. One display panel glows brightly while the one next to […]...

When Does a Jewelry Showcase Need Combined Linear and Accent Lighting? Two Approaches from the CAI Series
A single showcase might hold a full row of watches and one hero piece worth putting on a pedestal. Continuous linear light keeps the whole row easy to see, but it doesn’t necessarily draw attention to the featured position. A single spotlight creates that focal point, but the surrounding pieces and price tags can slip […]...

How to Light Shoe Display Shelves: Under-Shelf Linear Lighting, Reflections and Uneven Rows
A shoe wall usually has several shelves stacked on top of each other. Linear light hidden under a shelf can form a neat line of light along the display face and illuminate the row of shoes on the shelf below. But seeing one continuous bright line from the front doesn’t mean the upper, the vamp, […]...

How Does the SP-17233 Gantry Light Integrate into a Jewelry or Watch Showcase?
For jewelry or watch showcases built mainly around a glass display face, a fixture can stand directly inside the cabinet, bringing light in from above the product. A gantry light forms a frame with two side posts and a horizontal section on top; both the light itself and the fixture body become part of what’s […]...

Lighting Thin Display Shelves with the JING Series SP-18046
Jewelry and watch display shelves need to illuminate small products without giving too much space to the lighting hardware. As shelves become thinner, finding room for the fixture, mounting components and cables becomes more difficult. Choosing a light solely by the size of its visible head can lead to changes later, when the cabinet maker […]...

Bag Display Lighting: Reducing Shadows with Linear Lights
A backpack may stand much taller than the smaller bag beside it. Handles, straps and front pockets can block light from reaching parts of either product. A linear light at the top of the cabinet creates a continuous line of light, yet the lower front, pocket or side of a taller bag may still be […]...

Black, Gold or Silver? Choosing a Finish for Jewelry Showcase Lights
The color of a showcase light can be more noticeable when the light is off. This is especially true of a gantry-style light that stands inside the display case: its housing is visible alongside the glass edges, metal trim, and product trays. Choosing a color means deciding whether the fixture should blend into the case […]...

Custom Stem Lights for Jewelry Showcases: Height, Head Count and Spacing
Two jewelry showcases of the same width may call for very different lighting arrangements. One might display a single featured piece; the other might hold several groups of jewelry. If the light heads are spaced evenly based only on the cabinet dimensions, one product may be left in shadow while another head lights an empty […]...

Rotatable Linear Lights for Glass Showcases: The Only Series
Linear lights are often mounted along the top of a glass showcase. Once the fixture is in place, however, the merchandise, display stands, or viewing angles may change. If the direction of the light is fixed as well, it may no longer serve the products you want to highlight. A bright line may also appear […]...

Custom Retail Lighting RFQ Checklist: From Drawings to Sample Approval
“We need high-CRI lighting for a display case. Please quote as soon as possible.” That message can start a conversation, but it leaves too much open to interpretation. One quotation may include drivers and mounting accessories; another may cover the fixtures alone. Both may appear to meet the brief, even though the proposed systems and […]...
