Downlights

Q: Can you change the intensity of downlights?

Yes, some do allow for adjustment. Dimmable LEDs can increase or reduce the brightness and can even change the tone from cool to warm.

Q: Can the same downlights be used in the kitchen, bedroom, and bathroom?

Yes, there’s no rule against using the same downlights in each room in the house. However, many people like to use different types for each setting. For example in Australia, kitchen lighting tends to be cooler toned and brighter, while living room lighting is often dimmer and warmer colour temperature.

Q: Do downlights use a lot of electricity?

This will depend on the type of light bulbs you use. LED light downlights are typically very energy-efficient making them a popular choice in Australia. You can also arrange them in a more efficient way than for some other systems, which might have lights configured in one central point.

Types of downlights

Fixed downlights

Fixed downlights are similar to spotlights, as they focus and point the light directly downward. These recessed downlights have the smallest diameter, so they are more suitable for smaller rooms like bathrooms.

Adjustable downlights

These can be adjusted and manoeuvred to highlight a specific area in the house or a statement piece of art.

Square downlights

These can be fixed or adjustable, and they will come in a square shape. This kind of light can either be fixed to the ceiling or it can be three-dimensional.

The advantages of high quality downlights

As with most types of ceiling lights, the highest quality downlights will give you the best illumination. They are safer for your family and your home, will provide constant and consistent lighting and reduce the risk of electrical failure.

How to choose downlights that are right for you

Downlights are a very practical lighting option, so if you’re looking for a more decorative lighting option, pendant lights and flush mount lights could be worth looking into.

First, look at the area of your house that you want to illuminate with downlights to figure out what type you will need. Do you want to highlight a statement piece of furniture or art? Or are you just looking for a simple and no-fuss lighting system? Picking the right light for the right purpose is always the best method to follow.

What is the main difference between spotlights and downlights?

As the name suggests, downlights project the concentrated light beam downwards — so they’re installed on ceilings. Spotlights highlight a specific area in the room, like a painting or unique feature, and they’re often installed on walls.
