Wall and ceiling bulkheads for circulation areas

Corridor LED lighting

Choose a robust general-lighting bulkhead for the corridor first, then identify whether the project also needs an integral emergency version or a separate emergency bulkhead. The right answer depends on the route, mounting, controls, maintenance access and emergency strategy.

A practical starting point

General corridor lighting and emergency lighting serve different jobs

General corridor fittings provide the normal day-to-day illumination. Emergency provision is selected for the emergency lighting scheme and its testing arrangement; it is not a substitute for the normal lighting design. Where an integral emergency option is suitable, it must be specified against the exact luminaire and project requirements.

Use this page to narrow the family. Final quantities, positions, spacing, emergency coverage and control operation need checking against the project drawings, installation conditions and the relevant design responsibilities.

Specification considerations

Corridor mounting, controls and emergency decisions

Start with the physical route and the normal lighting use, then document the emergency arrangement separately.

Mounting and service access

Confirm whether a wall or ceiling position is available, what the fixing surface allows, and how the fitting will be accessed for installation and maintenance. Titan is listed for wall or ceiling mounting; other arrangements should be checked against the selected product information.

Controls for the normal lighting

Where corridor lighting is controlled, select the control gear and wiring approach with the project controls design. Sentinel and Harbor list DALI, SwitchDIM, DSI and Casambi wireless options; Titan is listed as fixed output.

Emergency operation and testing

Choose emergency provision with the emergency lighting design and maintenance plan. Sentinel and Harbor list emergency options; Bright is a dedicated emergency bulkhead with maintained or non-maintained operation and DALI emergency or self-test options listed.

Emergency lighting strategy

When a dedicated emergency bulkhead is the clearer choice

A dedicated Bright Emergency Bulkhead gives the emergency scheme its own product record and maintenance route. This can make the distinction between normal corridor illumination and emergency provision clearer on a schedule.

Whether the emergency fitting is maintained, how it is tested and where it is positioned must follow the project’s emergency design. The product selector is a starting point only; confirm the exact model, supply arrangement and test method with the project team.

Corridor LED lighting FAQs

Questions about corridor bulkheads and emergency provision

Answers are a product-selection guide. Project design requirements remain the governing information.

What is the difference between normal corridor lighting and emergency lighting?

Normal lighting is the day-to-day illumination used in the route. Emergency lighting forms part of the emergency scheme and should be selected, positioned and tested to that scheme. A project may use a fitting with an integral emergency option, a dedicated emergency bulkhead, or both as appropriate.

Which LED bulkhead suits a general corridor?

Sentinel is the starting family here because it is listed as a corridor LED bulkhead with multiple output, control and emergency options. Select its model, output and options only after the corridor layout, operation and emergency requirements are known.

When is Harbor relevant in a corridor?

Harbor is listed for corridor, circulation, service and utility areas and carries IP65 and IK10 credentials. Those characteristics may be relevant where the installation environment or risk of impact calls for them; the site conditions and product information determine whether it is suitable.

Can Titan be used on a wall or ceiling?

Yes. Titan is listed for wall or ceiling mounting, with 180 degree distribution and 3-CCT switching between 3000K, 4000K and 5500K. It is listed as fixed output, so it should not be presented as a control-ready equivalent to Sentinel or Harbor.

Which control options are available for corridor bulkheads?

Sentinel and Harbor list DALI, SwitchDIM, DSI and Casambi wireless options. Each arrangement has implications for driver selection, wiring and commissioning, so the controls designer should confirm the intended system before a model is specified.

Does a corridor bulkhead include emergency operation?

Not automatically. Sentinel and Harbor list emergency options, while Bright Emergency Bulkhead is a dedicated emergency product with maintained or non-maintained operation listed. Confirm the exact model and the emergency design rather than assuming that any standard corridor bulkhead provides emergency operation.

How should corridor lighting quantities be set?

Quantities and positions depend on the geometry, mounting height, reflectances, obstructions, required lighting performance and the emergency scheme. Provide the drawings and operating brief so the selected luminaire can be assessed as part of the project lighting calculation.
