20th Jun 2023
At Octo Lights, we specialize in providing high-quality fluorescent light covers to enhance your lighting experience. We are excited to introduce our newest addition to the product line: Magnetic Ceiling Light Covers. In this blog post, we will guide you through the features and differences between our Magnetic Ceiling Light Covers and Fluorescent Light Covers, helping you make an informed decision when selecting the most compatible option for your light fixtures.
Understanding Magnetic Ceiling Light Covers
Our Magnetic Ceiling Light Covers offer a range of unique features and benefits that set them apart:
- Full Magnetic Strip Attachment: The magnetic strip ensures a secure and hassle-free installation on metal ceiling grids. No more drooping or sagging like with other fabric magnet light covers.
- Non-Sagging Backlight Film: Our magnetic light covers feature a non-sagging backlight film, providing a clean and professional appearance that stays in place.
- High-Resolution Images: Enjoy stunning high-resolution images that are beautifully illuminated by the lights, adding a touch of style and ambiance to any space.
- Compatibility with Various Fixture Types: Whether you have traditional fluorescent fixtures or newer LED fixtures, our Magnetic Ceiling Light Covers are designed to fit any type of fixture, making them highly versatile.
Magnet Light Covers: Design Options and Versatility
With over 100+ design options available, you can choose from a wide range of styles to suit your preferences. If you want a more personalized touch, we also offer the option to upload your own custom designs, allowing you to create a truly unique lighting experience.
Specifications and Installation
Our Magnetic Ceiling Light Covers are available in standard sizes of 2x4 and 2x2, and each cover weighs less than 1 pound, making them lightweight and easy to handle. To install your magnetic light cover, follow these simple steps:
- Prepare the work area by laying the light cover down on a clean, dry, and smooth surface to secure the magnets.
- Apply the long magnet strip by peeling back 2 inches of the adhesive strip at a time and applying it to the long side of the cover.
- Apply the short magnet strip in the same manner, peeling back 2 inches at a time and attaching it to the short side of the cover.
- Finally, line up the long side of the cover to your ceiling grid and attach the rest of the cover to the metal ceiling grid, adjusting as necessary.
Exploring Fluorescent Light Covers
While Magnetic Ceiling Light Covers offer their own set of benefits, our Fluorescent Light Covers provide an excellent alternative:
- Functionality and Installation: Fluorescent Light Covers are designed to be inserted inside standard fluorescent light fixtures, with the image side facing down on the clear plastic diffuser. They are easy to install and offer a quick way to transform your lighting.
Compatibility and Limitations of Fluorescent Ceiling Light Covers
It's important to note that Fluorescent Ceiling Light Covers are compatible only with standard traditional fluorescent light fixtures. To ensure compatibility, the fixture needs to open up and have a clear flat diffuser to support the light cover effectively.
Choosing the Right Light Cover for Your Fixture
When selecting the ideal light cover for your fixture, consider the following:
- Magnet Covers for LED Fixtures: If you have newer LED fixtures, our Magnetic Ceiling Light Covers are the perfect choice. These covers feature a full magnetic strip that easily attaches to the metal ceiling grid, providing a universal fit for any style of LED fixture. With their high-resolution images and non-sagging backlight film, Magnetic Ceiling Light Covers add style and ambiance to your LED lighting while reducing glare and improving the overall lighting quality.
- Fluorescent Covers for Traditional Fixtures: If you have traditional fluorescent light fixtures, our Fluorescent Light Covers are the ideal solution. Designed to be inserted inside standard fluorescent fixtures, these covers offer a quick and easy way to transform your lighting. By placing the image side facing down on the clear plastic diffuser, Fluorescent Light Covers soften harsh glare, reduce eye strain, and create a more comfortable environment for work or study.
By considering the specific type of fixture you have, whether it's an LED fixture or a traditional fluorescent fixture, you can choose the light cover that is best suited to enhance your lighting experience.
