The trimless housing eliminates the flange for a visually clean ceiling aesthetic that is embraced by the latest architectural styles.
Unlike standard flanged downlights that are mechanically retained with torsion springs or retention clips, this product installs into the ceiling during the plastering stage and is secured Trimless Downlight with a removable plastic film which is to be removed post-installation. This method of installation allows the drywall to be fixed around the fixture for a smooth finish.

It can even be installed in the void space of an existing ceiling. This feature is popular with hotel and restaurant owners as it gives them total control over the atmosphere, enabling them to impress their clientele. The trimless downlight comes with a dimmer compatible GU10 spot LED and is a highly effective way to introduce ambient, accent and task lighting into any environment.

Applications
Trimless downlights are the designer’s and perfectionist’s choice for a clean ceiling aesthetic. They remove the flange from the luminaire to achieve an architecturally integrated lighting solution and are especially popular in modern retail spaces, contemporary offices, upscale residential buildings, luxury hospitality spaces and galleries and museums where the design of the space is more important than the individual light fixtures themselves.
A recessed downlight that is considered trimless does not have a flange or exposed trim and instead relies on a plaster plate that is attached to the housing aperture in the ceiling to finish the hole and create a smooth surface. This method is more time consuming and difficult than the drywall method but produces an extremely clean finish.
Our GR-DL-Y LED trimless downlight is a perfect example of this type of downlight as it has no visible flange and installs into any ceiling thickness, provided that you open a hole larger than the diameter of the fixture body. This allows for a flush mount with a variety of ceiling types and finishes.
The GU10 spot that is included with this fixture is dimmable so you can set the right mood for any situation without having to swap out your fixtures. This is a feature that has become increasingly important for restaurants and hotels where the atmosphere can decide whether or not customers return.
