Direct light exactly where you want it, with a soft metallic touch, using the 4-inch brushed nickel gimbal trim (SKU HV4-TH4018-BN). A gimbal trim holds the bulb in a pivoting ring that tilts and rotates, so you can highlight a painting, wash a fireplace wall, light a kitchen island or showcase store merchandise. The brushed nickel finish is warm yet understated and matches the nickel faucets, door handles and cabinet hardware found in so many Canadian homes. It completes a 4-inch recessed light and suits living rooms, kitchens, hallways, galleries, showrooms and restaurants.

The trim is made for a P20 bulb with a 50W rating; pair it with an LED P20 bulb for a cooler, longer-lasting and far more efficient accent light than halogen. Adjustable aiming lets you fix awkward layouts, light a sloped ceiling properly or follow a new furniture arrangement without cutting a new hole. Installation is the final step: once the compatible 4-inch housing is mounted and wired, the trim fits from below and the gimbal can then be tilted by hand. Want a warmer gold tone instead? The same trim exists as the 4-inch gimbal trim in brushed brass.

From a family room in Ottawa to a kitchen renovation in Laval or a furniture showroom in Winnipeg, this brushed nickel adjustable recessed trim brings a refined, flexible finish to Canadian homes and businesses. Use a row of them to light a wall of photos or a long counter evenly. Add it to your project today and make your favourite features shine.

A flexible accent trim
The HV4-TH4018-BN is a gimbal trim for 4-inch recessed lighting, finished in brushed nickel. Its pivoting ring holds the bulb and lets you tilt and rotate the light, so a single pot light can serve as general lighting or as a targeted accent. It is ideal for artwork, family photos, fireplaces, built-in shelving, retail displays and islands that are not perfectly centred under the ceiling housing.

Bulb and light quality
This trim is intended for a P20 bulb with a 50W rating. An LED P20 bulb is the recommended pairing: it runs cooler, which is easier on artwork and fabrics, lasts much longer than halogen and uses much less energy. Choose warm white for cozy living spaces and dining areas, and neutral white for kitchens, workspaces and merchandise that must look true to colour.

Installation and aiming
A qualified person should first mount and wire the 4-inch recessed housing. With the power off at the panel, check that the housing is compatible with this trim series, install the bulb and push the trim up until it rests flat against the ceiling. Restore power, then tilt the gimbal gently by hand to aim the light. Replacing fixed trims with gimbal trims is also a quick upgrade for existing recessed lights that no longer match your furniture layout.

Brushed nickel, black or brass?
Brushed nickel is the versatile middle ground: softer than chrome, lighter than black, and easy to coordinate with transitional and contemporary décors. For a bold modern contrast, a black version of the same gimbal trim exists; for a warmer, decorative accent, choose the 4-inch gimbal trim in brushed brass. Fixed baffle or reflector trims of the same size can handle the general lighting elsewhere in the room.

Care
With the power off and the bulb cool, dust the trim with a soft, dry microfibre cloth, following the direction of the brushed grain. Avoid abrasive cleaners and polishes that could alter the brushed finish, and never force the gimbal past its natural movement. With an LED bulb, upkeep is minimal for years.
