Built as a matched component, not a generic ring
The RT05 Screwless Window Trim is not a universal bezel forced to fit — it is machined to the exact footprint of the RT05 family, a fixture measuring L120 x W74 x H38 mm (L4 11/16 x W2 7/8 x H1 1/2") and installing into a 4-3/4" × 2-7/8" (121 × 73 mm) cutout. That tight tolerance is what prevents the wobble, light leak and crooked seams that give away a rushed recessed lighting job. The black finish gives a low-glare, architectural frame that recedes visually, letting the illuminated surface — a stair tread, a stone wall, a corridor floor — become the focal point instead of the hardware.
Light quality from the engine it finishes
The RT05HV and RT05LV light engines this trim completes put out 145 lumens from just 2W / 2.2W, which is exactly what low-level guidance lighting should be: enough to define an edge, never enough to blind someone walking toward it. Colour options include 3000K Warm White for residential warmth, 4000K Natural White for a cleaner commercial look, plus RGB and RGBW for accent and scene work. With a CRI >90, materials keep their true tone — an important detail when you are lighting natural stone, hardwood treads or coloured feature walls.

Installation and compatibility
Rough in the wall or riser to the published 4-3/4" × 2-7/8" (121 × 73 mm) cutout, run your feed to the engine's 12" (30 cm) lead, set the light engine, then clip the screwless window trim on last. No tools, no screw holes to conceal, no touch-up paint. Plan your supply around the engine's voltage — the RT05 runs on 100V AC or 12V AC/DC — and confirm which version you ordered (RT05HV or RT05LV) before wiring; this trim fits both. The engines are dimmable and IP67 rated with a -20°C to +45°C operating range, so the same detail can be repeated indoors and outdoors on one project.
Where it earns its keep, and what's documented
Think exterior entry steps and garden stairs that must survive a Canadian freeze-thaw cycle, condo and hotel corridors that need night-time guidance without overhead glare, restaurant stairwells, gym and spa change rooms, clinic hallways, theatre aisles and finished basements. Contractors like the black trim on dark porcelain, charcoal stucco and stained cedar, where a white frame would stand out. Because the RT05 line is c ETL us Listed and backed by a 3-year warranty, it specifies cleanly on both residential renovations and small commercial builds.

Order one LS-RT05-SW-BK trim per light engine to keep the whole run consistent.
