Our Aluminum Profile "DT1," is a sleek and narrow 1⁄2" wide, plaster-in, recessed LED housing that evenly diffuses light when used with our DOTLESS, high-density, LED strips. The compact design allows for installation inside 1⁄2" or 5⁄8" drywall without having to modify framing. Integrated plaster-bead allows plaster finishing up to the lens, so when finished, only lines of light are visible. No Trim!

Mounting Instructions

• Apply a single layer of contractors tape over light opening
• Apply drywall tape over integrated plaster-bead
• Apply plaster, smooth with compound knife.

To cut your aluminum profiles to custom lengths, simply snap the lens onto the profile, and place the channel onto a miter saw with the lens facing down. By doing this you can easily cut both the channel and lens to your desired length at the same time.
