Product Information

While energy efficiency and eco-friendliness are some of the attention-grabbing perks of an LED, the one that seals the deal are their low maintenance quality and extended lifespan. They are most commonly recessed into the ceiling, so you only see a small part of the fitting below the ceiling. You need to ensure that you are using the right IP rated light in the zone you are planning to have the lights fitted. This means that you no longer have to make your big decisions about lighting levels and colour tone prior to installation.

Collingwood’s downlight collection all look good and are easy to install, offering a slim profile, push-fit terminal and Easy-Fit connectors. You don’t want him or her turning up and stating that you have the wrong type for the area they are to be fitted in. Feed a 14/2 cable through the wall using a wire tape so it lines up with the area where you’re placing the light. However if it’s already finished, try to limit any markings and use a pencil so that you can rub out afterwards.Aside form the typical single downlight, square downlights are also available in double, triple and quadruple variants, with 2, 3 or 4 bulbs in the same unit. Often there is a template to mark out the size of the circle you need to cut out, however if not you can either draw the right size with a pair of compasses and pencil or use the correct sized hole saw guided by the pilot drill bit at the centre. What's more, they are all dimmable too, and most are IP65 rated so that you can use the same fittings throughout your home, even in the bathroom. We offer dim to warm technology too, where the colour temperature changes from a day-bright 2800/3000 Kelvin at 100% to a beautifully warm 1800/2000 Kelvin when dimmed down to 25%.

evenly spaced so once you know the spacing you can predict where they will be, meaning that you can avoid putting your holes for the downlighters within around 6 inches of a joist, ideally.It offers a style of lighting that is especially popular amongst contemporary interiors - this is attributed to the lights being positioned within the ceiling itself. Although, the most appropriate methods are fairly self-explanatory without understanding expertise or special tools. If your downlight has a junction (or connection) box, line up the wires from the 14/2 cable so they’re directly across from the matching wires inside the box. We even have a downlight that is totally watertight, being rated IP65 from the back as well as the front.
