exterior slopped soffit lighting
 

Hello,

Has anyone installed recessed lighting in a sloped soffit?. I want to add 2 lights in my gable end but normal cans will shine down on a 45 degree. I want them to shine straight down. Any ideas on slopped cans?

Halo has #76 Adjustable Gimbal Trim that will adjust up to 50°. NOT rated for Gabels though, best bet would be low voltage

The make an "eyeball" trim kit so you can adjust the light direction.

You may not have enough space/clearance above the fixture. This could be a problem. If you find one that fits, make sure you can meet the clearance described in the fixture literature.

This also may be considered a wet location. Should this be the case, you would need special weather tight fixtures.

Thanks for the replys guys. Ya eyeball trim won't look good for downlight since it can't be placed deep in the can. All i could find was some sloped cans by halo but require 7 1/2" clearance, I got 2x6 Fascia so i'm looking at 5.5"

Found some 4" Low Voltage that require 5 5/8" which will be fine, but then i already got 6 other 4" Line voltage cans for the rest of the soffits. Pretty pricey to switch to all Low Voltage but i might have no choice ..
