Lighting of the underpass at the Ústí nad Orlicí (CZ) train station


The railway station in Ústí nad Orlicí is one of the oldest in the Czech Republic and, together with the clearly visible track, a paradise for any railway enthusiast. The station building, dating from 1874 and located in the middle of the tracks, was declared a cultural monument in 2010. Since the overall condition of the station, the underpass, and especially the lighting were unsatisfactory, the railway administration decided to undertake a comprehensive modernization.

In 2021, the underpass, which serves as the main connection between the platforms, was redesigned. The requirement was for high-quality, energy-efficient lighting that would blend seamlessly into the surrounding architecture with a simple and clear design and be vandal-resistant. The NauticProfil® I2 surface-mounted profile from FLASHAARwas selected for this purpose.

The profile is mounted on ceilings and walls using a suitable mounting bracket, into which it is inserted without tools. Equipped with the LED-Line Navigator, the indirect light of the NP I2 creates a soft and bright room, and together with wall paintings, a pleasant atmosphere. Thanks to its design and the "plug & play" system, maintenance is very simple and quick.
