Amerlux Launches 1” Designer Collection of Cylinders and Downlights

Amerlux is now taking orders for its latest engineering marvel: a designer’s collection of 1″ interior and exterior cylinders, each offering easy light engine replacement and up to 1500 lumens, with the launch of an interior square and round downlight expansion soon to follow.

The FINCH lighting collection offers exceptional output in several configurations, resulting in soft, discreet quality illumination as a fixed downlight, wall mount, exterior ground mount or adjustable with a patent-pending adjustable mechanism featuring a 50-degree aiming angle. 

Whether installed on ceilings, walls, mullions or the ground, FINCH is a versatile design tool, acting as a subtle enhancer that harmonizes with any high-end residential, retail, commercial and hospitality environment or as a distinctive decorative element for striking visual effects.

“The new FINCH collection provides a harmonious range of architectural lighting solutions, eliminating the need for designers to rely on different product families and sizes to light a design cohesively,” said Bill Plageman, VP of Marketing at Amerlux. “Mixing and matching FINCH fixtures easily creates a uniform design in both indoor and outdoor applications. This gives designers something they didn’t have before—full artistic control over the lighting in their projects. They can now choose fixtures that best suit their vision, whether it’s highlighting specific architectural features or creating a specific ambiance.”

FINCH promotes comfort, sustainability and architectural aesthetics in several ways:

  • Slim 1″ Design: Featuring a discreet 1″ aperture, FINCH provides subtle yet powerful illumination with solite lens and hexcell louver accessories.
  • Powerful output: FINCH provides accent or general illumination up to 1500 lumens, depending on the fixture and application, ensuring every corner is efficiently lit with low-flare optics.
  • Weather-resistant: Wet-rated and fully sealed, FINCH exterior cylinders employ stormproof technology to remain dry and illuminated season after season.
  • Field-replaceable LED: A field-replaceable LED engine and varying optics ensures easy maintenance, adaptability and long-lasting sustainable product.
  • Diverse Mounting Design Options: Trimless and millwork flush options with reduced or no-canopy designs offer sleek, seamless aesthetics for a modern look.
  • Various Lengths: FINCH cylinders come in lengths of 3″, 6″, 9″, 12″, and 18″, offering flexibility and variety to suit distinctive design needs.
  • Sophisticated Finishes: FINCH cylinders provide a two-tone design with elegant and elevated finishes, enhancing the overall look of a space with a refined appearance.
