Linear lighting offers incredible design possibilities but presents unique challenges in ordering, staging, and installation. This session equips project managers and engineers with strategies to manage these high-risk components effectively. Topics include early coordination with millwork and general contractors, choosing between factory-assembled, raw, or hybrid approaches, and field-verifying dimensions before releasing orders.
 

Participants will also learn best practices for labeling, kit structuring, and phased delivery to avoid costly errors and reorders. By approaching linear lighting with the same rigor applied to automated shades, integrators can reduce risk, improve installation accuracy, and deliver flawless results on some of the most technically demanding aspects of residential lighting projects.
