What Are Fire-Rated Downlights?

Using either your own tools or calling a professional, you will have the ability to cut a hole through your ceiling in which the light can be placed. For the most effective job, you will need to leave a small amount of space between the hole and light - should you have issues with the bulb, it can be easily taken out and fixed.

With these lights being a recessed option, they will slide nicely into your home’s decor without any fuss or mess. These downlights are only mandatory if they’re recessed (or semi-recessed). If they were surface-mounted lights or lamps, they wouldn’t need a hole in the ceiling for installation.

You may be wondering why they are called ‘fire-rated’ downlights. If you’re unfortunate enough to be in the vicinity or forefront of a fire and you have these lights installed - a fire-rated LED downlight will seal off the hole in your ceiling which will slow down the process of the emergency fire spreading.

Not only that but if you have wooden ceiling joints, this will act as structural protection. However, if you have traditional lighting or conventional recessed lights - the fire could potentially easily collapse your household or commercial building.

Fire-rated downlights compared to conventional recessed downlights will seal that hole when fitted with an intumescent pad - whereas, normal recessed lights do not cover up the hole which will cause the fire to spread at the normal rate.

Therefore, in the case of a fire, the fire-rated downlights will give a lot more protection for your household or commercial property. Not only will they present this benefit, but they will offer a seamless and sleek look to add to your lighting display.

Colour Temperature Chart For Fire-Rated Downlights

Whether you’re looking suggestively for indoor or in a few cases, outdoor fire-rated downlights - electrical panels will be needed to control the temperature and power of your LED lighting display.

High and low ceilings are applicable, but this may change the outcome of the brightness you want or need for specific daily tasks. Consequently, thorough research through our options below is a vital duty to act upon before purchasing randomly.

Being a visitor or an owner of a household requires you to provide the right lighting for each setting and environment. Anywhere from a warm orange-like colour to a cool blue/ white colour is what you’ll find when purchasing your LED fire-rated lights.

Consequently, when you’re picking a location for these lights to go - you need to consider the aesthetic and ambience it is going to present. Will an LED fixed fire-rated downlight (white) be too bright in a certain scenario and will you need more natural lighting in that area?

If you’re unsure, you can either have a detailed session looking through our options below, matching up your downlights (fire-rated) to the ambience you’re trying to set. Or, you can invest in a CCT switch - by purchasing one of these tools, it will permit users to flick between opposing colour temperatures.

Thus, you will have the capability to complement the room’s setting with the colour temperature whenever needed. Although this feature will cost more, it may be worth investing in if you want to switch up the vibe of your room every so often.
