Description
A neat, shallow fitting for ceilings where there is not much depth to play with. The trim is only 5mm thick, so what you see from below is a slim white ring and the lamp behind it, and the body sits within a 35mm drop. It takes a GU10 lamp, and we would put a reflector LED in it for a controlled cone of light rather than a wide wash. It is not dimmable, so a plain switch suits it best.
We reach for downlights of this size in kitchens, utility rooms, hallways and shower rooms, where protection against dust and splashes matters and a lower ceiling makes anything hanging a nuisance. Over a worktop run it picks out the surface neatly; a line of them along a corridor gives light with nothing to duck under. The narrow 60mm cut-out also helps in porches, alcoves and box rooms, where a wider aperture starts to dominate a small ceiling. It suits anyone lighting a whole floor to a budget, since the price per point stays low without the light looking cheap from below.
The visible ring is finished in white, which reads quietly against a painted ceiling and disappears when the lamp is off. Keeping it clean is a case of a dry cloth over the trim now and then, with the power off and the lamp cold; in a kitchen, where grease can dull the surface, a cloth barely dampened with warm water and then a dry one will bring it back. It is intended for indoor rooms on a household circuit. It carries a one year warranty. We also stock the same fitting in black, which we tend to choose for dark or timber ceilings. Lamps are sold separately.

Frequently Asked
What size aperture does it need?
The cut-out is 60mm. The outer trim measures 66mm across, so it covers the edge of the opening with a little to spare.
How deep is the fitting?
The body is 35mm deep, with a trim of just 5mm sitting proud of the ceiling line, which makes it one of the shallower downlights we stock.
Which lamp should I use?
It takes a GU10 lamp, and an LED reflector type is the one we would choose. Lamps are not included, so add them to your order.
Can I put it on a dimmer?
No, this one is non-dimmable. If you want dimming in the same room, run it from a separate switched circuit or choose a dimmable downlight instead.
Is it suitable for a bathroom or shower room?
It is rated IP54, so it is protected against dust and splashing water, which covers most bathroom and utility ceilings. Check the zone requirements for the position you have in mind.
Is it available in another finish?
Yes. The same downlight is offered in black as well as this white version.
