Pick Different Recessed Lighting Trims for Your Decoration

This is the second part of our write-up on Recessed Lighting fixtures.

The trim is usually most visible.  It covers the point where the ceiling joins the downlight to create a smooth and stylish transition between surface and light.  The color and material should match or complement the room.  The simplest measure is to choose the same color as the ceiling.  A thin trim that matches the ceiling can easily hide your lighting and keep the focus on what your lights are illuminating instead of emphasizing the ceiling.  Trims can even help to emphasize and direct the light depending on the purpose of your light.

For Example:
Wall wash trims will direct the downlight to the side and illuminate a wall.
Adjustable trims give you the option of aiming the downlight and improve flexibility if you need to change spotlighting or have installed the downlight in a sloped ceiling.
Pinhole trims help to prevent light spill and keep illumination focused downward.

What lighting effect do you want?

Ambient Lighting:

Ambient lighting provides overall general light for work, play, socializing, security and everyday tasks. These recessed downlights should produce a wide beam of light on lower ceilings. A narrow beam of light does a better job of delivering light if on a high ceiling.

Task Lighting:

Downlighting can provide effective task lighting in kitchens, bathrooms, offices, over and peninsulas and utility work spaces. Outdoor Recessed Lighting fixtures use a special sealed trim. Use the correct outdoor Recessed Lighting trim to avoid water damage when installing next to wet or damp areas. Try to avoid creating shadows with fixture placement. Using outdoor light fixtures with your recessed fixtures that mount to the wall of the ceiling can create a shadow free lighting experience. 3 inch Recessed Lighting is the most standard for task lighting applications. With an aperture size of 3" on the 3 Recessed Lighting a light beam can be concentrated in one area.
