Downlights

Downlights sit recessed into the ceiling, giving clean, even light without a fitting on show. They are the go-to for kitchens, bathrooms and hallways, with fixed and tilting designs, fire-rated options and bathroom-rated IP65 models.

Buying Downlights

How to Choose Downlights

Start with the cut-out. Downlights fit a hole in the ceiling, so check the cut-out diameter and the depth of the void above before you buy. Both are listed on each product page.

Check the ceiling. Where there is a room above, fire-rated downlights help keep the ceiling's fire resistance. In bathrooms, choose an IP rating that suits the zone. Your electrician will confirm both.

Plan the layout. A grid of downlights spaced about 1 to 1.2m apart gives even light in most rooms; closer spacing over worktops gives brighter task light.

Downlights Questions

Do I need fire-rated downlights?
Where the ceiling has a room above, fire-rated downlights are generally needed to maintain the ceiling's fire resistance. Your electrician can confirm what your ceiling needs.
What IP rating do bathroom downlights need?
It depends on the zone. Directly above a bath or shower, IP65 is the usual choice, and IP44 is common further away. Confirm the zone with your electrician.
How far apart should downlights be?
About 1 to 1.2m apart suits most rooms, and about half that distance from the walls. Go closer over kitchen worktops for brighter task light.
