LedMaxx In-ground luminaires are built for “set it and forget it” outdoor use – recessed ground spots that sit flush with paving, gravel or terraces while delivering controlled light for paths, façades, trees and architectural details. Instead of visible poles or bulkheads, you get clean surfaces and precise beams coming directly from the ground, using proven GU10 lamp technology and high IP protection for long-term reliability. On exterior projects, planners usually split in-ground fittings by role instead of using one brand everywhere. Compact residential paths, driveways and small gardens are often lit with nordlux in ground luminaires, while architectural hotel, plaza and façade concepts use higher-spec leds c4 in ground luminaires. Budget-driven housing estates and basic commercial routes are commonly standardised on kanlux in ground luminaires, smart-controlled or scene-based schemes integrate ilight in ground luminaires, and design-focused residential or hospitality entrances are finished with ideal lux in ground luminaires to match decorative façade lighting.

Construction and materials of LedMaxx In-ground luminaires

The durability of LedMaxx In-ground luminaires comes from a very simple but robust construction concept:

Stainless-steel top plate
- Visible surfaces are stainless steel, designed to handle outdoor exposure, de-icing salt and occasional mechanical impact.
Pressure-resistant body
- The housing combines metal and engineering plastics to carry the load from foot traffic and occasional light vehicle crossings (depending on installation and foundation).
High ingress protection
- IP67-rated recessed ground spotlights are sealed against dust and temporary immersion, making them suitable for patios, garden paths and open weathered zones when correctly installed with drainage.
GU10 lamp interface
- Instead of a fixed LED board, the optical cavity is sized for standard 50 mm GU10 lamps, up to 50 W in many models, so you can choose dimmable, colour-tunable or high-output retrofit lamps as needed.

This combination means LedMaxx In-ground luminaires are closer to small architectural uplights than to decorative plastic garden spikes – they’re built to integrate with proper outdoor construction.

Assortment overview of LedMaxx In-ground luminaires

The LedMaxx In-ground luminaires range is deliberately compact and focused on the shapes actually used on site:

Round recessed ground spotlights
- Small, circular fittings sized around a 170 mm installation length and ~Ø125 mm top, using GU10 lamps and IP67 sealing.
- Ideal as path markers, tree uplights and terrace accents where a classic round form fits the paving pattern.
Square / rectangular recessed ground spotlights
- Larger square formats (e.g. approx. 215 × 180 mm) with adjustable internal lamp holders for tilting the beam.
- Useful when you need to “aim” light at façades, columns or feature trees but still keep the luminaire flush with the ground.
Round / square variants in the same cut-out family
- Bank-of-Lamps’ LedMaxx In-ground luminaires assortment typically includes both round and square GU10 fittings in the same wattage and IP class, so designers can mix forms without changing installation logic.

Because they all share GU10 and similar mounting principles, wholesalers and contractors can cover most small exterior projects with just a few SKUs.

Light behaviour of LedMaxx In-ground luminaires

With GU10 as the light source, LedMaxx In-ground luminaires are as flexible as the lamp you choose:

Beam control via GU10 choice
- Narrow beams (e.g. 24°) for tree trunks, sculptures and façade details.
- Medium beams for low walls, small trees and planting.
- Wide beams where gentle orientation light is more important than tight accent.
Colour temperature and CRI
- Warm-white lamps (2700–3000 K) are typical for residential gardens and hospitality terraces.
- Neutral-white lamps (4000 K) suit more functional paths, driveways and commercial exteriors.
- High-CRI GU10 options let you keep timber, stone and greenery looking natural at night.
Dimming and scenes
- Pairing LedMaxx In-ground luminaires with dimmable GU10 lamps gives simple phase-cut dimming from standard outdoor circuits, so you can run “full output” at arrival times and softer light later in the evening.

In practice, one family of fittings plus a thoughtful GU10 lamp selection is enough to create a full palette of outdoor moods.

Typical applications for LedMaxx In-ground luminaires

Because of their stainless-steel surfaces, compact build and GU10 flexibility, LedMaxx In-ground luminaires are particularly effective in:

Garden paths and terrace edges
- Low-level markers that guide movement without throwing harsh light into windows or neighbouring plots.
Tree and shrub accents
- A few tiltable square or round luminaires aimed into canopies can structure a garden at night far better than a single pole flood.
Façade bases and plinths
- Placing adjustable models close to the wall allows vertical grazing on stone, brick or plaster while keeping the luminaire invisible during the day.
Private driveways and parking bays
- IP67 stainless-steel heads can mark the outline of driveways or parking positions, especially when combined with bollards or wall luminaires for the main light level.

Used sparingly and thoughtfully, LedMaxx In-ground luminaires can transform a flat exterior into a layered, readable night-time environment.

How to select LedMaxx In-ground luminaires for a project

When specifying LedMaxx In-ground luminaires, work through a short technical checklist instead of choosing purely by shape:

Define the job of each fitting
- Marker, path guidance, façade uplight, tree accent or driveway edge?
- The role drives the required lumen output and beam angle.
Choose round vs square / rectangular
- Round: matches circular paving elements, compact terraces and organic garden layouts.
- Square/rectangular: aligns with stone slabs, façade lines and structured modern designs, and often offers adjustable tilt.
Confirm IP rating and environment
- For fully recessed outdoor mounting, aim for IP67 as provided by LedMaxx ground spotlights, especially where water or snow may sit temporarily on the surface.
Select GU10 lamp type
- Fixed CCT vs. tunable white or RGBW, depending on whether you want static, hospitality-style light or dynamic effects.
- Dimmable versions if you intend to connect to phase-cut dimmers or smart control modules.
Check dimensions and installation depth
- Verify cut-out size, overall height and minimum installation depth against your paving or decking build-up so the housing doesn’t clash with drainage pipes, insulation or sub-base.

This approach ensures the chosen LedMaxx In-ground luminaires fit mechanically, meet the IP requirements and deliver the intended visual result.

Installation and maintenance of LedMaxx In-ground luminaires

Correct installation is what really makes LedMaxx In-ground luminaires last:

Drainage layer
- Always bed recessed housings on compacted gravel or drainage aggregate so water drains away; never leave the can sitting in a concrete “bathtub”.
Flush finish
- Adjust sleeves so the stainless-steel frame ends perfectly flush with the final surface, avoiding both trip hazards and water rings.
Protected cabling
- Use outdoor-rated cable in conduit, with junctions in accessible IP-rated boxes rather than loose connections buried in soil.

For upkeep:

Periodically clean the stainless-steel tops and glass lenses to remove dirt, moss and de-icing residues that can reduce light output and stain surfaces.
During seasonal garden or façade maintenance, inspect for cracked glass, loose frames or subsidence around the fittings and correct early.
When upgrading, you can often keep the LedMaxx housing in place and simply replace the GU10 lamp with a newer, more efficient or smarter model.

Wholesale and project procurement of LedMaxx In-ground luminaires

For wholesalers, installers and project buyers, LedMaxx In-ground luminaires are easiest to manage when you standardise a compact core range:

Build a small family
- One round IP67 GU10 in-ground luminaire for paths and terraces.
- One larger square/rectangular adjustable version for façades and trees.
- Optional additional SKU for heavier vehicle-adjacent areas if your projects require it.
Standardise product data in your systems
- Store for each item: shape (round/square), material (stainless top), IP rating, maximum lamp wattage (often 50 W GU10), cut-out and overall height, plus finish colour.
Align lamp strategy
- Offer matched GU10 LED lamps (beam angles, CCT and dimming types) as part of the same line, so contractors get a complete package from one supplier.

With that structure in place, LedMaxx In-ground luminaires become a reliable, low-complexity component of your outdoor portfolio – giving you robust, stainless-steel ground lighting that can adapt to new lamp technologies without changing the basic hardware.
