Most commercial buildings still have a ceiling full of 2x4 and 2x2 lay-in troffers with sound housings. Some still run fluorescent lamps. Others got an early LED retrofit that is already showing its age. Owners and facility managers are now hearing about tunable white from tenants, from designers on renovation work, and from wellness programs. What they are not getting is budget for ceiling demo, new grid, or plenum work in an occupied building. MaxLite's TRK Troffer Retrofit Kit Control Ready S …

Most high bay retrofits start with a fixture count, not a photometric plan. Someone walks the floor, counts the 400W and 1000W metal halides still hanging, and needs a replacement that lands close on light level without paying to redesign the building. EiKO's HBX3 and BAYE3 round LED high bays are built for that job: one fixture, several wattage settings, and on some models, field-selectable color temperature. RelightDepot has limited stock of four of these SKUs on promotion now, first come, fir …

MaxLite's DSKL Series Disk Light ships in two sizes on one platform: a 4 inch, 10W model and a 6 inch, 15W model, both selectable across the same five color temperatures, 2700K, 3000K, 3500K, 4000K, and 5000K, and both TRIAC dimmable with a CRI of 90 or higher. The CCT selection happens at the driver, not by ordering a different part number, so switching sizes on a job doesn't mean switching how CCT gets set. Order the wrong CCT off a fixed-CCT SKU and it is a return authorization; hold either D …

A two-tone ceiling cylinder shows up on a bid set for a reason. The designer wanted a decorative downlight detail instead of a plain black baffle, usually in a lobby, corridor, hospitality dining room, or a multifamily amenity space where the ceiling itself is part of the design story. Westgate's new CMC-2Tone Series gives an electrical contractor one platform to bid across that whole scope instead of three or four disconnected part numbers, and it is worth knowing the range before it shows up a …

Undercabinet lighting on a commercial job usually comes down to one call made early in the rough-in: run low-voltage tape or pucks that need a remote driver location and a home run back to it, or specify a line-voltage fixture that carries its own driver and lands on a standard branch circuit. The new Westgate's UCLB series is built for the second path. It's a 120V direct-wire linear light bar with the driver built into the fixture body, CRI90 optics, and CCT that gets set at the fixture instead …

The FDLO Series ships as a 32.5-inch oval double-ring flush mount with a field-select switch that sets 2700K, 3000K, 3500K, 4000K, or 5000K on install day. Every finish shares the same 48W DOB driver, IP44 damp-location housing, and 120-degree beam. Miss the CCT call before the corridor ceiling closes up, and the fix is a flip of a switch on install day, not a return authorization. Two kinds of orders keep this series moving: a property management team standardizing corridor lighting across a mu …

MaxLite's FlatMax G6 turns three separate flat panel SKUs into one line item on a takeoff: 1x4, 2x2, and 2x4, all on the same controls-ready platform, all with CCT and wattage set in the field instead of locked at the factory. That matters on a real relamp job, where a building running corridor troffers, office grids, and open-area panels usually means three part numbers to track instead of one. The line carries DLC Premium efficacy up to 150 LPW, 0-10V dimming standard, and a 10-year warranty b …

Lotus LED's 5CCT COB tape line ships as two SKUs on one driver platform: a dry-location strip and a sealed, wet-rated strip, both selectable across the same five color temperatures, 2700K, 3000K, 3500K, 4000K, and 5000K. That selection happens at the driver, not the tape, and both models run COB construction with a CRI of 90 or higher, so neither shows a hotspot whether it lands in a finished channel or bare against a cedar wall. Pair the wrong driver, one without the 5CCT switch, and the field …

The SLE-EL step light ships as five fixtures in one box. Set the field-select switch to 2700K, 3000K, 3500K, 4000K, or 5000K on install day, on the same 3W integrated LED module, IP65 wet-location polycarbonate housing, and 120-degree beam that every SKU in the line shares. Get the CCT wrong on a building, and fixing it is a two-second flip of a switch, not a return authorization. Two kinds of orders keep this series moving: a facility team standardizing stair lighting across a multifamily portf …

The SCR series is Westgate's architectural round suspended pendant platform built for commercial and hospitality interiors where the architect or engineer specifies a single pendant family across multiple zones, ceiling heights, and output levels without a separate submittal for each configuration. The conventional approach to this problem is a different fixed-wattage, fixed-CCT catalog number for every zone, which means a new purchase order every time the photometric gets revised. The MCTP5 mod …
