As a specialist distributor in recessed lighting, our expert sales team can help you choose the right down lights for your home or business. We've put together this useful guide to help you along your journey... How To Choose The Right Downlights For You You’ve either got a brand new room or you’re replacing a single light fixture with recessed downlights. This gives you a fresh canvas and the option to install anything you want. But what if you opted for brighter LED downlights with wider beam angles of 60 degrees instead of the traditional 40? This combination spreads the light out further allowing you to install fewer downlights and potentially saving you a few hundred pounds on installation costs.

Not only can these type of bathroom lights be used to illuminate the whole room, you can also have lights in specific areas such as sink alcoves and above the shower to offer extra illumination to these zones. Buy fire rated; they're safer and can protect your home in the event of a fire. There are instances were a fire rating is not required but for 95% of domestic installations, downlights should be fire rated. Many of the higher priced, premium downlights have longer life expectancies of around 70,000, that’s a lifetime of up to 68 years if you only use them for 3 hours per day! Premium rated downlights also have longer guarantee periods, these are the key reasons why some downlights cost considerably more than others - you get what you pay for. 3 Typical Rooms Where You Can Install Downlights

Recessed downlights

While maintaining a competitive pricing point, these manufacturers are able to offer something more, something better than the rest. Choose from a range of spotlights, including standard recessed models that fit flush to the ceiling for a space-saving solution, as well as retractable swivel downlights designed to angle the light exactly where you need it. Many of our models also come as doubles or triples for greater light coverage. By assisting customers on the trade counter I developed a great understanding for downlights; so one day I asked myself...What if I used my knowledge of downlights and shared it with the world? We now offer over 2,000 different types of downlights from the UK's leading brands. They have many additional features, no longer are you restricted to switching and dimming, you can now change colours or colour temperatures to meet the demands of your lighting environment at any point of the day.

The market continues to be flooded by a deluge of countless downlighting options. At Downlights Direct we try hard to narrow down the options available and only offer the very best downlights on the market. Even with this strategy we still have thousands of different variations to choose from, with more being added by the day. Trim-less downlights, which are plastered directly into your ceiling, are becoming increasingly popular. They are able to produce the brightest light output with the most minimalist appearance possible. Scottish Highlands, areas which we class as zone 1 are post codes: AB30-38, AB44-56, FK17-99, G83, IV1-28, IV30-32, IV33-39, IV52-54, IV63, KW1-14, PA21-33, PA34-40, PH18-26, PH30, PH31-41, PH49-50 As mentioned in our guide, one of five golden rules is about connectivity which should be a key decision when making your choice. Cheap, older downlights have very basic screw terminal connectors that take longer to wire. While new modern downlights such as the Aurora MPRO, Collingwood H2 Pro and JCC V50 come with a high quality wiring connector. You wire one part of the connector into your ceiling by looping cables in and out when you're doing the 'first fix'. Then plug the corresponding connector in when your ready for the 'second fix'. The corresponding connector is wired into the downlight allowing for a plug & play system. Recessed downlights – also known as ceiling spotlights – are a popular option for every room in the home, due to the range of styles, colours and sizes available. They are especially suited to low ceilings and are commonly found in kitchens, where they can be used as both general ambient lighting or task lighting for cooking and food preparation areas.If your kitchen is 9 metres by 9 metres you’re going to lose a lot of that area with cupboards and worktops. Depending on the heights of these, they may need to be considered as part of walls especially if the cupboards go right to the ceiling. This reduces the floor spaces and the area of the room that needs to be illuminated. A kitchen is always the most time consuming when you’re doing lighting designs for homes. This is because it contains cupboard spaces, appliances and worktops which need to be considered as part of the design and each one has to be individually drawn. Consider integrated downlights over GU10, they're more reliable and last longer. The price of integrated versions has reduced a lot recently and some don’t cost too much more. A downlight or downlighter is a luminaire (light fitting) that emits light in a downward direction with an accurate but relatively narrow beam angle. The beam of light is focused and intense, providing an unparalleled, clear, bright lighting effect to the area or objects directly beneath them. Downlights have undoubtedly come a very long way since their inception, which is earlier than 1940. Although nobody knows who invented the recessed downlight, it’s certainly a great invention and something that is used in almost every home and business around the world.
