Precision Art Lighting

Homeowners are always looking for a better way to show off their prized belongings, and precision art lighting may be the answer. These concealed light fixtures are perfect for intricate subjects that need to be well-lit for maximum visual effect.

If properly installed, they can create a powerful beam of illumination that contours perfectly to the subject, creating a unique look that is not available with other fixtures. Precision art lighting works because it has high-quality optics, LED technology and multiple masking attachments that refine the beam of light.

Phantom contour projectors, for example, use a powerful 3000K LED light engine and a unique lensing system that focuses the focused light precisely. As the light is emitted from the projector, a cut metal slide or a set of movable shutters pares the beam down so that it only radiates on the face of the subject.

This technology is compatible with anything on display, including unique sculptures, sets of paintings, models, or precious artifacts. The projector is safe to use, even with delicate or aged items.

Phantom lighting projector technology also stands out because it is easy for installers to handle. The problem with most projectors is that they require a high level of expertise from the installer. Phantom’s projectors are designed to be intuitive for an installer, so homeowners can rest assured that the placement of the projector is correct, resulting in a brilliantly lit subject from the precision art lighting.

Precision art framing projectors are also distinguished by their versatility, as they can be paired with one of several housing options. For example, some of Phantom’s projector housings include:

The Float Finish (FFL) Series – The FFL Series is designed to sit flush with the ceiling once installed, and this effect is made possible with a color matched float ring. This produces a zero sight line look that remains inconspicuous even while the projector is in operation, so it is ideal for ceilings where a visible cover plate would be undesirable.

The Remodeler Housing (RML) Series – The RML Series is made for installation between floors, and it is designed to accommodate shallow ceiling depths. It can be used with ceiling joists as tight as 10 inches deep, and it comes with a glare-shielded cover plate that ensures a streamlined look.

The New Construction Housing (NCL) Series – The NCL Series is intended for installation prior to sheetrock placement, so it can be integrated into the build early on. It comes with mounting bars that can accommodate joist spacing up to 10 inches high and 24 inches wide, and it comes with the same smooth cover plate that the RML Series does.

The Top Access (TAL) Series – The TAL Series is for projects where bottom access to the projector is impractical. It is also a good choice when ceiling penetration must be minimal, so it also makes for a smooth ceiling finish for your precision art lighting.

The Surface Mount (SML) Series – The SML Series is the easiest to install and the most economical, because it is mounted to a surface instead of installed inside the ceiling. Phantom’s SML projectors are available in a standard or low profile canopy design, and with clever placement, they can be partially or totally concealed.
