How to install Trimless linear light to Drywall?

09 May

In some ways, Trimless is the perfectionist's choice, and in this era of minimalist design, it is becoming very popular. The seamless exterior has a clean and elegant look that captures the imagination of designers, architects and clients.

Essentially, Trimless is a way to hide a fixture or accessory and allow the light itself to play a dominant role. While Trimless downlights have garnered attention, wall light, stand light, and wall wash lights are now becoming more popular. Quite simply, LEDs are once again playing a major role. The long life of the solid-state light source allows us to integrate the light anywhere in the space, making future maintenance much easier. The lower operating temperature also allows the fitting to be enclosed in all areas as well.

What is Trimless lighting?

Recessed solutions for Trimless linear lighting make light an integral element in architecture by omitting the visible front panel. The Trimless version of the aluminum profile is designed to be completely Trimless once installed into a plaster ceiling or Drywall, with no aluminum frame showing. Combined with strip lights and LED drivers, this creates a continuous lighting effect in any room without shadows or overlap. At the same time, these extrusions prevent wall edges from cracking and chipping, eliminate the need for caulking, and provide an easy transition between wall-to-wall, floor-to-wall or ceiling-to-wall. It should be noted that the location of the light fixture must be determined before install and cannot be moved in the future.

1. With a cleaner architectural lighting design appearance. A Trimless design (also known as invisible trim or frameless) makes the installation look neater and seamless (as if embedded in the ceiling).
