Ceiling fittings for TILLUME 24V LED spots
Choose the visible fitting for your interior style, ceiling height and installation conditions: a clean recessed frame, a surface-mounted housing, a pendant fitting or a bathroom-rated option.
Pair it with a compatible TILLUME 24V LED spot module to create the actual spotlight. The modular design keeps the housing and light source separate, so the LED module can be installed or replaced from the front without changing the whole fitting.
Why this modular setup helps
Controller and power supply are selected later on the system side.
For suspended ceilings, plasterboard ceilings and flush installations with enough depth above the ceiling.
For concrete ceilings, renovations or rooms where recessed installation is not practical.
For dining tables, kitchen islands and accent lighting where the spot should hang lower in the room.
For selected bathroom or damp-room positions. Check IP rating, installation zone and local electrical rules.
Simple selection guide
A TILLUME 24V LED spotlight consists of two visible parts: the fitting and the LED spot module. The housing or frame defines whether the spotlight is recessed, surface-mounted or suspended. The LED spot module defines the light output, colour temperature or colour function. Controller, actuator and power supply are selected separately when the project needs dimming, Tunable White, RGBW or smart-home control.
Select the mounting frame, surface-mounted housing, pendant fitting or bathroom-rated housing that suits the room design and installation conditions.
Combine the fitting with a compatible TILLUME 24V LED spot module to create the actual recessed, surface-mounted or pendant spotlight.
Start with the room, not the product category. Check the ceiling height, ceiling colour, furniture finishes and the role of the light. A white recessed frame can blend into a white ceiling. A black frame can work as a visible accent. Surface-mounted housings are useful when recessed installation is not possible or when the housing should remain visible. Pendant fittings bring the light lower over a table or counter.
| Decision point | What to look at | Fitting direction | Check before ordering |
|---|---|---|---|
| Interior style | Minimalist, classic, industrial, warm residential, hotel-style or technical look | Flush recessed frames for a quiet ceiling; visible surface-mounted or pendant housings when the fixture should become part of the design | Shape, trim width, visible depth, tilt function and whether the fitting should blend in or stand out |
| Colour and material palette | Ceiling colour, wall colour, switches, door handles, furniture, black or white accents, metal finishes | White fittings usually blend into white ceilings; black or metal finishes can match other visible hardware in the room | Finish colour, glare impression, visible contrast and consistency with other hardware in the room |
| Ceiling height and visual weight | Low ceilings, high ceilings, sloped ceilings, open spaces, dining areas, kitchen islands | Low rooms often need discreet or shallow solutions; higher rooms can carry deeper housings or pendant fittings that bring the light closer to the surface below | Room height, housing height, suspension length, beam direction and whether the fixture feels too heavy for the room |
| Lighting effect | General lighting, accent lighting, wall washing, kitchen task light, dining atmosphere or low-glare comfort | Adjustable frames help aim light; recessed fittings keep the ceiling calm; pendant fittings create a stronger visual focus over tables and counters | Tilt angle, beam direction, module brightness, glare control and spot position |
| Installation limits | Available ceiling void, cut-out size, cable route, thermal space, bathroom zone or renovation constraints | After the design direction is clear, confirm whether a recessed, surface-mounted, pendant or IP-rated housing can actually be installed | Cut-out size, installation depth, IP rating, wiring route, heat space and local electrical rules |
If you already know the installation type, go directly to the recessed or surface-mounted fitting collection.
The light source may need to be replaced before the housing does. With the TILLUME modular setup, the visible fitting, MR16 holder and LED spot module remain separate parts that are assembled into one spotlight.
Later, the housing can stay in place while the LED module is replaced or upgraded. Before ordering, check module size, MR16 holder compatibility, installation depth, heat space and fitting type.
Compare the real customer installation on the left with the matching TILLUME fitting on the right. Each example links directly to the product used for that installation style.
If you are planning several spots, check the fittings, LED spot modules, controllers and power supplies together. This matters most for dimming, Tunable White, RGBW/RGBWW and wired smart-home installations.
If you are not sure how to combine the fitting, LED spot module, controller and power supply, these guides explain the system decisions before you order.
Use this checklist before ordering. It covers the details that usually decide whether the fitting, LED module and 24V control system will work well together on site.
In a TILLUME modular setup, the 24V LED spot module sits in the MR16 holder and can be accessed from the front side in suitable fittings. This makes later replacement or light-quality upgrades easier than with a fixed one-piece downlight.
Check the cut-out size, installation depth, available heat space, ceiling material and whether the selected MR16 holder and LED module fit the frame. Shallow ceiling voids may need a low-height recessed fitting rather than a standard deep frame.
Surface-mounted housings are useful when the ceiling cannot be cut, when the ceiling void is too shallow, or when the housing should become a visible design element. Some surface-mounted fittings also use a fixing plate to make ceiling installation easier.
No. The housing only holds the LED spot module. KNX, DALI or Loxone compatibility depends on the 24V PWM controller or actuator, the LED module type, channel count, power supply and system configuration.
Yes, TILLUME 24V LED spot modules are designed to fit the matching TILLUME housings and frames. Standard GU10 or MR16-format modules may also fit in principle, but the module size, holder, heat space and installation depth should still be checked before ordering.
A complete system usually includes the fitting or housing, the 24V LED spot module, a suitable 24V PWM controller or actuator, and a stable 24V DC power supply. Load, channel count, cable length and voltage drop should be checked before ordering.
For KNX, DALI, Loxone or larger 24V LED spot projects, check the fitting, LED spot module, PWM controller, power supply, cable length and voltage drop before ordering. If you are unsure, contact us with the room type, number of spots and control system.
