Loft Lid Downlight Covers are fire retardant and allow for the safe, energy efficient installation of downlights in an attic or loft.

The Loft Lid creates a safe, airtight cover over downlights and reduces the amount of heat lost through the ceiling.

They create a protective barrier or cover over downlights ensuring loft insulation does not directly contact the light fitting and that there is sufficient ventilation around the light for heat dissipation.

The Loft Lid also eliminates heat loss and air leakage into the loft space and allows for a continuous layer of insulation to be laid over the top of the lid to comply with current building regulations. 

The unique shape enables the product to be easily installed even when downlights are located close to roof joists or trusses and provides sufficient volume for all major brands of downlighters up to a maximum power rating of 50W*.

They create an effective dust, acoustic and pest/insect seal and is extremely easy to install.

Manufactured in the UK and made from fire retardant material they have been tested and approved to British Standards by the UK Lighting Industry Association.

What Sealant Should be Used With Loft Lid?

Loft Lids can be sealed with any general/all purpose silicone sealant
