Trimless recessed lights

Trimless recessed lights are a type of lighting recessed into the ceiling or wall, but unlike conventional spotlights, they don't have a visible frame around the light. This gives them a cleaner, more minimalist, and modern look, creating a more subtle finish that blends more discreetly into the decor, achieving a striking appearance.

Trimless spotlights also stand out for providing a smoother transition between the surface and the light, creating a more elegant visual effect.

Installing trimless recessed spotlights is relatively simple, but it's important to follow certain steps to ensure proper installation. Below are the most important ones:

1. Measuring and Marking: Accurately mark the location where you want to install the spotlight. Use a template (if included), a ruler, or a compass to ensure the hole is the right size for the recessed spotlight.
2. Cutting the Hole: Use a suitable saw or circle cutter to cut the hole in the ceiling or wall. Follow the manufacturer's instructions at all times.
3. Connecting: Connect the spotlight's electrical wires to the existing electrical system. These spotlights generally have simple connections, but if you're unsure, it's recommended to have a professional electrician do this.
4. Installing the Spotlight: Insert the recessed spotlight into the pre-cut hole. Most spotlights have a perforated grid to securely attach the spotlight to the ceiling.
5. Finishing: Once the spotlight is attached to the ceiling, it's time to cover the exterior (grid) with plaster or filler. Then, wait for it to dry, sand carefully, and finally, paint.

The lifespan of a trimless recessed spotlight depends on the type of technology it uses, especially whether it's an integrated LED or an LED bulb. In both cases, they offer a significantly longer lifespan than traditional spotlights.
