Abstract
A light fixture has a frame with an aperture and an enclosure having a driver compartment and a junction compartment. The enclosure is movable relative to the frame. In an operation position, the driver and junction compartments are laterally displaced from the aperture and a lighting module is mountable in the aperture from a room-facing side of the light fixture. In a service position, an opening of the driver compartment is laterally aligned with the aperture such that the lighting driver is removably mountable in the driver compartment through the aperture and the opening of the driver compartment, from the room-facing side of the light fixture. In an inspection position, an opening of the junction compartment is laterally aligned with the aperture, and an interior of the junction compartment is visible through the aperture and the opening of the junction compartment, from a room-facing side of the light fixture.
