The bracket creates a protective void around the downlight fitting, preventing direct contact between insulation material and the heat-generating components of the lamp.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDesigned for loft and ceiling installations where thermal insulation is laid directly above plasterboard ceilings, the bracket ensures compliance with Building Regulations thermal barrier requirements without requiring insulation to be cut away around each downlight. The steel construction withstands typical loft temperatures and supports downlights fitted with LED lamps up to 7W output. The 120mm minimum void depth requirement means the bracket suits most residential ceiling constructions with joist depths of 150mm or greater.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe bracket measures 77mm in length, 62.5mm in height and 22mm in width, fitting snugly around the downlight body without adding significant bulk to the ceiling void. The open frame design allows airflow around the fitting while preventing insulation from collapsing into the lamp zone. Installation involves clipping the bracket onto the downlight body before pushing the assembly up into the ceiling cutout.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch5\u003eSpecification\u003c\/h5\u003e\n\u003ctable class=\"spec_table\"\u003e\n\u003ctbody\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eLength\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e77mm\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eHeight\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e62.5mm\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eWidth\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e22mm\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eMinimum Void\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e120mm\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eConstruction\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eSteel\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eWarranty\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e1 Year Guarantee\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/tbody\u003e\n\u003c\/table\u003e\n\u003ch5\u003eDownloads\u003c\/h5\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003ca href=\"https:\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0729\/8993\/3835\/files\/datasheet-FRNIC.pdf\" target=\"_blank\"\u003eProduct Specification Sheet\u003c\/a\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch5\u003eFrequently Asked\u003c\/h5\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhich downlights is this bracket compatible with?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe bracket is designed specifically for Knightsbridge FireNova fixed and tilt downlights.
