4. Distinctive styling
l\,4any times fixtures must be located in areas where they will
be visible by pedestrian traffic. Therefore, a primary design
consideration for the Kim 5000 serles was io have a simple
elegant shape that would enhance today's architecture. The
rectangular shape is another Kim iirst in direct burial
fixture design.
7. Functional accessories
Recognizing the tremendous range of applications for the Kim
5000 series, a complete Iine of accessories has been
designed lor glare control, vandal protection, and insiallation
ease. Each accessory has been designed to solve the most
common application problems ihat we have encountered
during 40 years of building direct burial lighting flxtures;
anoiher reason why Concept 5000 is the on ly Iog ical choice.
