1 Inch Recessed Downlight

Model N45 · 3 trims

The 1 Inch Recessed Round Adjustable Downlight is built for interiors where the lighting needs to be intentional and adjustable without turning into visual clutter. The fixture uses a cold forged aluminum heat sink, which actually helps move heat away from the LED instead of trapping it the way die cast housings often do. That gives you steadier performance and longer life.

The adjustable light engine is the real advantage here. You can tilt and aim the beam to highlight art, shape the room, or correct odd architectural lines without relying on bulky surface fixtures. The integrated COB LED, paired with a precision reflector system, produces clean, consistent light with smooth edges and no harsh falloff. The small aperture keeps the environment visually calm, even when the beam is directed at a steep angle.

The split-body design keeps installation practical. The housing and light engine are separate, so electricians can place the housing first and finish the trim later without fighting tight ceilings or damaging the light.

This fixture suits modern residential work, boutiques, gallery installations, studios and any setting that needs a mix of minimalism and control. It gives you the flexibility of an adjustable spotlight while keeping the ceiling language simple and quiet.

Key points
• True 1 inch recessed profile with a clean, minimal aperture
• Adjustable light engine for accurate aiming
• Cold forged aluminum heat sink for solid thermal performance
• COB LED with smooth, uniform illumination
• Split-body system for easier installation and maintenance
• Ideal for accent lighting, art lighting, and flexible architectural interiors

Photometrics

See what the beam does before you cut the hole.

Pick an optic, a mounting height and a color temperature. One set of inputs drives all four views: the beam in section, the polar distribution, the spacing a run sets out at, and color rendition. Tested IES files for every build are in the downloads below.

The diameter is geometry from the rated beam angle and holds for any fixture at that angle. Illuminance in lux is not shown because it needs tested IES data for this optic, which we publish on the downloads below rather than estimate here. For a layout across a whole plan, send us the drawings.
