What is the Forest DSXL and DSXL LED Design System XL?
The Forest DSXL Design System XL is a larger version of the DS track, rated for 3 lb per foot, and DSXL LED adds a dimmable 3000 K light strip that washes the drapery or the track. Both are white and can be drawn by hand or motorized. A 6 ft Forest DSXL track (DSXL) costs $459.14; a 12 ft one costs $757.58.

DSXL keeps the shaped front of DS in a bigger section.

The assembled price includes the lighting parts when specified.

Where the Forest DSXL track fits
The LED version is a lighting decision as much as a drapery one, so we bring it up with the lighting designer or electrician early: it needs a power supply near the track. It works well on feature walls in Brickell and Edgewater apartments where the drapery is the backdrop to the living room. If the track will be motorized too, see DSXL LED Motorized.
