Interior/Exterior Interior/Exterior Recessed Lighting Trim Types

Interior/Exterior Interior/Exterior Recessed lighting fixtures have three main components: the trim, the housing and the bulb. Interior/Exterior Interior/Exterior Recessed light trim fits inside the housing and extends to form the outer ring that’s visible on the ceiling.


Different trim types offer different aesthetics, including modern Interior/Exterior recessed lighting options.

  • Baffle Trim: The most common Interior/Exterior recessed lighting trim, ribbed baffle trim has a textured interior that minimizes glare. Bulbs fit inside the fixture so that the light is inset, not flush with the ceiling.
  • Reflector Trim: Made with a mirrored surface, this trim boosts illumination. Bulbs are inset, as they are with baffle trim.
  • Open Trim: This trim features bulbs that are flush or nearly flush with the ceiling.
  • Shower Trim: Bulbs with tempered glass lenses make these Interior/Exterior lights suitable for wet spaces, such as showers and bathrooms.


To learn more about all trim types and to see photos of each one, read our Interior/Exterior Interior/Exterior Recessed Light Buying Guide.


Bulb Types

Interior/Exterior Interior/Exterior Recessed lighting commonly uses halogen and LED bulbs. LED bulbs are an especially long-lasting and energy-efficient option, meaning they can help to lower energy costs. These bulbs are also cool to the touch — which can make them safer and easier to replace. Some Interior/Exterior recessed lights are compatible with screw-in bulbs, while others use pin base bulbs.

Save Time, Buy a Kit

They’re more expensive to purchase but can reduce energy costs.
