FIVETRACK 5 mm 48V Magnetic Tracks & Luminaires

What Sets FIVETRACK 5 mm Tracks Apart?

The FIVETRACK 5 mm system was developed for projects in which lighting should be perceived primarily as light itself—not as heavy technical infrastructure. Thanks to its very narrow 5 mm installation slot, the system integrates seamlessly into contemporary residential, office, and commercial interiors.

Key advantages of this solution:

• a subtle, ultra-minimal track profile,
• convenient luminaire installation in a magnetic system,
• the ability to route lighting lines across both ceilings and walls,
• easy system expansion over time (without changing the overall concept),
• a consistent FIVETRACK system standard across components.

This solution performs particularly well wherever lighting needs to serve both a functional and an aesthetic role—such as living rooms, kitchens with islands, corridors, boutiques, showrooms, and hotel zones.

48V System – Practical Benefits

FIVETRACK operates on the 48V standard, which is widely chosen for modern interior track lighting systems. From the user’s perspective, this means more convenient planning of zoned lighting and easier system expansion within a single, consistent platform.

An additional advantage is the wide range of LED luminaires compatible with FIVETRACK. Depending on the model, available options include 3000K and 4000K colour temperatures, and selected luminaires also specify parameters such as CRI >90 (e.g. linear models and selected system modules).

This makes it easier to match the lighting to the function of the space:

• 3000K – a warmer, more inviting atmosphere (relaxation zones),
• 4000K – a more neutral character (kitchen, work areas, circulation zones).

Recessed and Surface-Mounted Installation – Choose the Effect You Need

FIVETRACK 5 mm gives you the freedom to choose the installation method already at the design or refurbishment stage. This category includes both recessed tracks and surface-mounted tracks.

5 mm Recessed Track

Choose this option if you want the most discreet possible effect and maximum integration of the system into the architecture. It is an excellent choice for new projects and renovations where a “clean” ceiling line and minimalist finish are a priority.

5 mm Surface-Mounted Track

This option is ideal where simpler installation and easier retrofitting are the priority. You still retain the system’s modern, lightweight appearance, while gaining greater installation flexibility.

Curves, Ceiling-to-Wall Transitions and Spatial Compositions

One of the strongest advantages of the FIVETRACK 5 mm system is its ability to create layouts that go beyond conventional straight runs. The system allows you to create:

• smooth transitions from ceiling to wall,
• curved and oval forms,
• more dynamic lighting compositions in contemporary interiors.

The system range also includes ARC elements (curves) that support this type of installation. This solution is particularly valued in premium projects, boutiques, reception areas, restaurants, and any space where lighting is intended to define the character of the interior.

Magnetic Luminaire Mounting – Flexibility Without Renovation

FIVETRACK 5 mm uses magnetic technology, allowing luminaires to be installed and repositioned conveniently within the system. From the user’s perspective, this makes it easier to adapt the lighting layout to changing interior needs, such as:

• changes in furniture arrangement,
• a new display layout,
• a different zoning concept,
• seasonal reconfiguration of the space.

This is a major advantage both in residential interiors and in commercial spaces, where the functional layout often changes over time.

How to Build a FIVETRACK 5 mm System – Step by Step

To avoid mismatched components and create a coherent system, it is worth following a simple sequence:

1. Choose the Track Type

Start by determining whether you need:

• a 5 mm recessed track – if your priority is an effect fully integrated with the architecture,

• a 5 mm surface-mounted track – if simpler installation and easier retrofitting are more important.

2. Plan the Track Layout

Decide whether the layout will be straight, corner-based, or include transitions and curves. At this stage, you select:

• mechanical connectors,
• electrical connectors,
• corner connectors,
• ARC elements (if required by the design),
• a power feed end or a plug-in power supply.

FIVETRACK product pages include, among others, mechanical and electrical connectors, a corner connector, and a power feed end for 5 mm tracks.

3. Select the 48V Power Supply

The power supply should be selected based on the total wattage of the luminaires in the planned layout. The FIVETRACK system includes, among others, a plug-in power supply for 5 mm tracks (available in different wattage options), and some system components also indicate when a power feed end is required (e.g. when using a compatible external 48V power supply).

4. Choose Luminaires and the Lighting Scene

Finally, select luminaires according to the function of the room:

• reflectors / spotlights – accent and directional lighting,
• linear luminaires – more even, functional lighting,
• decorative modules – creating mood and defining the character of the interior.

The best result is usually achieved by combining several luminaire types within one system, e.g. a linear light element plus an accent spotlight.

Practical System Planning – What to Know Before Purchase

When planning a FIVETRACK layout, it is worth thinking about future expansion from the outset:

• leave space for additional luminaires in the future,
• anticipate possible changes to the lighting scene,
• select a power supply with a reasonable reserve capacity (with a recommended reserve of around 20%).

FIVETRACK track product information also includes a practical tip for the simplest starter set: track + luminaire + power feed end + 48V power supply (or a version with a plug-in power supply, where a power feed end is not required). For selected system components, the product descriptions also specify the maximum track length on a single circuit and the maximum load (e.g. 15 m / 150 W, according to the product descriptions).

FIVETRACK 5 mm Applications – Residential and Commercial Spaces

In Homes and Apartments

The FIVETRACK 5 mm system performs particularly well in spaces where a single central light fitting does not provide sufficient visual comfort, such as:

• living room,

• kitchen (especially above the island and worktop),

• dining room,

• bedroom,

• corridor and circulation areas,

• walk-in wardrobe / dressing area.

The ability to reconfigure luminaire layouts makes it easier to adapt the lighting to everyday use patterns—from work and activity to evening ambient lighting scenes.

In Offices, Retail and Hotels

In commercial environments, a 48V magnetic system offers a major advantage thanks to its flexibility:

• boutique / showroom – fast display changes,

• office – lighting adapted to a new workstation layout,

• hotel / restaurant – atmosphere building and zoning,

• reception / consulting room – a combination of aesthetics and function.
