Recessed downlights – also known as ceiling spotlights – are a popular option for every room in the home, due to the range of styles, colours and sizes available. They are especially suited to low ceilings and are commonly found in kitchens, where they can be used as both general ambient lighting or task lighting for cooking and food preparation areas. To fit recessed downlights, holes will have to be cut into the ceiling for the spotlight to fit into. They are spring loaded which keeps them in place securely once installed. The lights are also normally wired in via a loop system or connected to a junction box to be controlled by a 1 or 2-gang switch, or a dimmer switch.
