- Measure the void depth first - this is the whole reason to pick a slim fixture. Lift a tile, look through an existing opening, or check from the floor above.
- Plan tighter spacing - the 110 degree beam is narrower than a wide-angle fixture, so reduce the usual spacing by about a foot.
- Cut the openings - mark the full grid before cutting so the layout stays square to the room.
- Set the colour temperature - adjust on the fixture before seating it, same setting throughout the room.
- Connect the supply - a licensed electrician should make the connections.
- Seat each fixture - push in until the clips hold it flush against the ceiling.
Built for ceilings with almost no room above
Standard recessed lights need a deep void to sit in. That is fine in new construction and a problem in an older house, a converted loft or a concrete ceiling. This one has a slim body that fits where a full-depth fixture cannot.
Despite the thin profile it runs at 12W and puts out 1,300 lumens, more than most standard 6 inch downlights. The 110 degree beam is a little tighter than a wide-angle fixture, which keeps the light on the floor and the worktops rather than up the walls.

When the slim body is the deciding factor
- Concrete or joisted ceilings with no void to speak of.
- Loft conversions where the ceiling follows the roof line.
- Apartments where you cannot cut into the structure above.
- Retrofits where a deep housing will not clear the pipework.
- Low ceilings where every inch of headroom counts.
Measure the void before you order. Lift a ceiling tile, look through an existing fixture opening, or check from the floor above. Guessing here is what turns a two hour job into a two day one.
A tighter beam changes the spacing
At 110 degrees this throws a narrower pool than a 180 degree fixture, so place them a little closer together for even coverage. As a rule, take the usual spacing of half the ceiling height and reduce it by about a foot. On an 8 foot ceiling, that means a light roughly every 3 feet rather than every 4.
Colour temperature
Adjustable at the fixture, so you set it once at install. Use a warmer setting in living spaces and a neutral one in kitchens and hallways. Keep every fixture in a room on the same setting.
Installation
Hardwired and recessed, fitted by a licensed electrician. Confirm the void depth and whether insulation will sit against the housing before any cutting starts.
