The LUMENSTARLED RD32 Concrete Pour Mounting Box and Top Plate is precision-engineered to provide a secure, stable housing for in-concrete LED light installations. Constructed from robust, corrosion-resistant materials, the box is designed to withstand the pressure and weight of a concrete pour while maintaining exact positioning for the luminaire. This ensures the final recessed LED fixture aligns perfectly with the finished surface, delivering a professional-grade result every time.
When paired with compatible LUMENSTARLED in-ground fixtures, this system supports luminaires that feature high CRI ratings for true-to-life colour rendering and efficient LED driver technology for reliable, long-term performance. The fixtures designed for this housing are typically IP-rated for wet locations and direct burial applications, making them suitable for pool surrounds, driveways, courtyards, and other demanding outdoor environments exposed to moisture, freeze-thaw cycles, and heavy foot or vehicle traffic.
Thermal management is a critical factor in any concrete-embedded lighting application, and the RD32 mounting box is designed to allow adequate heat dissipation so that the installed LED luminaire maintains optimal operating temperatures. Proper thermal regulation extends the lifespan of the LED driver and light engine, reducing maintenance needs and ensuring consistent light output over thousands of hours of operation. This translates to significant energy savings compared to traditional halogen or incandescent in-ground fixtures.
This product is cUL/CSA approved and designed to meet Canadian electrical standards, giving you confidence that your installation complies with local building codes. The straightforward design simplifies the installation process — the mounting box is set and secured before the concrete pour, and the top plate protects the interior cavity until the LED fixture and trim are ready to be installed. For best results, we recommend working with a licensed electrician familiar with in-grade lighting installations to ensure proper wiring, drainage, and sealing.
