Why use an arm bracket?Mounting a
linear LED fixture directly on a wall or a sign lights the first few inches brilliantly and leaves the rest in shadow. An
arm bracket moves the light source away from the surface so the light can spread over it more evenly, while keeping the fixture out of reach and out of the way of passers-by, doors and sign frames. The ARMKIT 18 is an aluminum bracket built around that idea: an 18-inch arm that positions your lighting in front of what you want to show. It is a simple, effective way to get more from every fixture you install.
Planning and installation tipsStart by deciding where the light should land, then work back to the wall: measure the sign or surface, choose the fixture length and plan the
number of arms needed to support it evenly. Locate studs, blocking or solid masonry before drilling, and use
anchors suited to the wall material, whether drywall, brick, concrete or cladding. Keep all arms at the same height with a level or a chalk line so the fixture runs perfectly straight. Plan the wiring path and the driver location before the final fastening, and have a qualified electrician make the permanent connections in line with local code.
CompatibilityThe LCPROFA-ARMKIT18 belongs to the same
aluminum profile accessory family as the
suspension kits offered for several LED aluminum profiles. Since no spec sheet is listed for this bracket, confirm that it suits the profile or fixture you plan to mount before installation. For suspended installations, the family includes the
suspension kit #14 (per unit) and the
suspension kit #49 #87, which let you hang a profile from the ceiling instead of projecting it from a wall.

ApplicationsPicture a row of arms lighting the lettering above a bakery in Trois-Rivières, a logo wall in a Calgary office lobby, a chalkboard menu in a Halifax café, or a large canvas in a Toronto condo living room. Wherever the light must reach a vertical surface from a short distance, an
18-inch aluminum arm gives you control over the result. For outdoor signs, make sure the fixture and every component of the installation are rated for the location, and choose
sign lighting that suits Canadian weather.
