Mounting Fixture 

(Dry Location Mounting Channel)

Countersink hole

Lens overlapping

Two extrusions meet

Countersink screw

Extrusions aligned

Remove adhesive backing

Install lightstrip into extrusions

1

Measure area where luminaire will be installed. Use a laser line to create 

a reference line along installation area, ensuring consistent alignment of 

mounting channels. 

5

If applicable, connect disconnects between luminaires or solder connectors 

using the steps from Application Guidelines.

3

Screw extrusions to surface using countersink screws.

Note:

 Ensure extrusions are aligned. Misalignment will prevent lens from 

snapping in.

7

Perform a continuity test before connecting luminaire to power source.

2

Lay extrusions along chalk line and drill at least 3 countersink holes per 

extrusion. Drill additional holes as needed.

6

Install lens into extrusion, overlapping where two extrusions meet. Plan 

your cuts so that the lens will always overlap where two extrusions meet. 

Overlapping lenses helps keep extrusions aligned and prevents light leaks.

4

After all extrusions have been securely mounted, remove adhesive backing 

from lightstrip and adhere in place along extrusion channel, ensuring 

lightstrip is secure inside extrusion.

Note:

 Refer to Application Guidelines to ensure correct installation.
