INTERACTIVE COMPARISON LENS
Review one decision at a time.
Select a lens to see which product evidence to use and which questions belong in the shortlist.
BEGIN WITH THE SITE

Record the site type, area, mounting relationship and any height or dimensional limits before comparing product records.
- Installation environment
- Required fixture scale
- Known mounting limits

SHORTLIST WORKSHEET
Keep every model on the same basis.
Use two or three columns only. More options slow the decision without improving the brief.
THE COMPARISON BOUNDARY
Keep assumptions out of the shortlist.
Product images help identify form and application. The current specification record and quotation must confirm the values for each model and configuration.
