If you had clicked on the link of the of the lights that we used you would have seen this in the description feature clips to secure the housing to the ceiling surface the remodeling recessed lights have clips that lock into the drywall as i explained and showed in step 6 of the post eliminating the need to attach them directly to.
Can you put recessed lights in a vaulted ceiling.
It might sound a bit odd to you but recessed lights on vaulted ceilings can work wonders.
These light canisters hide within the ceiling to illuminate the room from above.
I suggest you use a gimbal ring trim.
I mentioned the size of recessed light fixtures and the number of lumens they put out.
Housing trim style and bulb or lamp type.
Sometimes called can lights or downlights these fixtures have three main components that can define the type of recessed light.
However you must evaluate your lighting needs to determine the.
Recessed light fixtures are flush with the ceiling making them great for rooms with low ceilings.
If the ceiling is not accessible for example in the case of a drop ceiling installation you must use remodel housing.
As an alternative you can install recessed lights.
Because of the depth you have 8 inches this can is 5 1 2 inches.
Lights for a 10 foot ceiling would be spaced 5 feet apart etc etc.
You can evenly place recessed lights around the vaulted ceiling perimeter which will highlight the vaulted ceiling by shining dots and draw attention to it.
New construction housing should be used if the ceiling is accessible.
Unlike the typical way of installing recessed lights you need special housing cans also known as shovel cut cans that are angled to fit up to a 45 degree slope for fitting the lights.
There are special considerations for angled ceilings.
There are other factors that would have an impact on this.
I am not fully on board with that method but i am okay if you use it.
But there s a twist.
When attempting to plan lighting for any room including rooms with vaulted ceiling make sure to apply the concept of light layering and use more than one source of light.
Where i work some people use regular can lights and use adjustable trims.
It works like a eyeball but the lamp is recessed so you don t get that bug eye some people associate with eyeball trims.
You ll need to specifically use recessed lights for sloped ceilings to make sure the light beam of light shines in the correct direction.
