Project Location Greenville, SC
Entry DescriptionThe Wall Director is a modern take on the legacy best-seller from KIM Lighting, which has been completely redesigned exclusively for LED. The unique -5° to +10° lockable tilt adjustment allows for fine-tuning when up or down mounted to enhance textural lighting effects and photometric performance. With +10° adjustment, designers can increase forward light throw to maximize the illumination area when mounting in the down position, or to properly illuminate large overhangs in ceilings and canopies.
With an efficacy range of 95 to 145 Lumens per Watt, the Wall Director beats the competition – the next best product offers 80 to 115 Lumens per Watt – making it the spec-grade market leader. The standard clear lens provides up to 17K delivered lumens. A highly diffuse lens option provides mix of both great photometric performance and visual comfort. It is a Dark-Sky approved, full cut-off luminaire when in the down position. The luminaire integrates Strike Optics™ to maximize target zone illumination with minimal losses at the house-side. This increases luminaire spacing, lowers installation costs, and reduces energy consumption all while providing better uniformity.
Integral sensors, controls and battery ensure there is no compromise to the IP66 rated form factor. Drawing from a classic design, but with a smaller profile, this timeless sconce offers simple, flowing lines and architectural shape. The superior materials that make up the Wall Director give it an elegant ruggedness that ensures the luminaire will stand the test of time.
