Astro Lighting 1212007 Borgo Trimless 35 LED Matt White Marker Light

Astro Borgo Trimless 35 LED Recessed Marker Light – 1212007

Create discreet, low-level architectural lighting with the Astro Borgo Trimless 35 LED 1212007. Finished in Matt White, this plaster-in recessed marker light is designed to sit neatly within the wall, creating a clean trimless appearance with no conventional decorative frame surrounding the visible light opening.

The Borgo Trimless 35 is particularly suitable for illuminating hallways, stairways, corridors and internal circulation routes. Its compact vertical design provides subtle orientation and accent lighting without the visual bulk of a traditional surface-mounted wall light.

Trimless Plaster-In Wall Light

Unlike a standard recessed marker light with a visible bezel, the Borgo Trimless 35 is designed to be installed before the final plaster skim. Once the surrounding wall has been finished, the fitting creates a discreet architectural appearance that can blend naturally into contemporary interiors.

Astro advises that the product must be installed before the final plaster skim. A back box is not required when the fitting is installed into a suitable solid wall, although the correct installation method depends on the wall construction and should follow Astro’s trimless installation guide.

This trimless design is suitable for:

• Modern residential hallways
• Staircase and landing lighting
• Hotel corridors
• Apartment developments
• Guest-bedroom circulation areas
• Low-level night lighting
• Interior feature walls
• Minimalist architectural projects
• Restaurants and hospitality interiors
• Contemporary commercial spaces

Integrated 2W LED Light Source

The Astro 1212007 contains an integral 2W high-powered LED, so no separate lamp or bulb is required.

It produces approximately 70 lumens, providing controlled low-level illumination for orientation, marker and accent lighting. The output is intentionally lower than a general wall light because the Borgo is designed to guide movement and highlight architectural surfaces rather than illuminate an entire room.

Astro states an approximate LED lifetime of 51,000 hours, helping reduce routine maintenance and lamp replacement in residential, hospitality and commercial projects.

Warm-White 3000K Lighting

Product code 1212007 produces 3000K warm-white light. This colour temperature provides a clean yet comfortable appearance that works well in hallways, staircases, hotel corridors and modern residential interiors.

The warm-white output complements timber flooring, neutral walls, stone finishes, contemporary tiles and other architectural materials without creating the colder appearance associated with higher colour temperatures.

High CRI 90 Colour Rendering

The integrated LED has a high CRI 90 colour-rendering rating, helping nearby wall finishes, flooring, artwork and interior materials appear more natural under the light.

Astro also specifies three-step MacAdam colour consistency. This helps multiple Borgo fittings provide a more uniform light colour when installed together along a staircase, hallway or corridor.

Recessed Vertical Marker Light

The Borgo Trimless 35 is designed for vertical wall installation. Its narrow opening produces an understated architectural detail while keeping the main body concealed within the wall.

The product dimensions are approximately:

• Visible fitting height: 120mm
• Visible fitting width: 35mm
• Depth: 43mm
• Required cut-out length: 170mm
• Required cut-out width: 40mm
• Recess depth: 43mm
• Gross weight: approximately 0.42kg

The larger cut-out accommodates the concealed plaster-in installation structure around the smaller visible light opening. Dimensions may vary slightly because of normal manufacturing tolerances.

Requires a 700mA Constant-Current Driver

The Astro Borgo Trimless 35 is a Class III low-voltage fitting and requires a compatible 700mA constant-current LED driver.

The fitting must not be connected directly to a standard 230V mains supply. The correct driver should be selected according to the number of connected lights, the driver’s operating voltage range and the required dimming method.

Astro states a forward voltage of approximately 3.3V per fitting and provides an online driver calculator to help identify compatible control gear.

Dimmable with Compatible Control Gear

The Borgo Trimless 35 can be dimmed, but dimming performance depends on the selected LED driver and control system.

A compatible dimmable 700mA constant-current driver is required. This allows the marker lights to provide clearer illumination when needed or a softer glow for evening and overnight orientation lighting.

Suitable for Multiple-Light Installations

Several Borgo Trimless 35 fittings may be connected to one compatible constant-current driver, provided the driver supports the combined forward voltage and electrical load.

This makes the fitting suitable for repeated installations along:

• Staircases
• Long hallways
• Hotel corridors
• Apartment circulation spaces
• Interior walkways
• Landing areas
• Feature walls
• Low-level bedroom routes

The number of fittings supported must be confirmed using the specifications of the selected driver and Astro’s driver-calculation guidance.

IP20 Interior Marker Light

The Astro 1212007 has an IP20 rating and is designed for dry interior locations.

It is suitable for bedrooms, hallways, staircases, corridors and other indoor areas where it will not be exposed to splashing water or excessive moisture. It is not suitable for exterior installation or wet bathroom zones.

Suitable for Bathroom Zone 3

Astro lists the Borgo Trimless 35 as suitable for bathroom zone 3.

This refers to dry bathroom areas outside the main water-exposure zones. Because the fitting is only IP20 rated, it must be positioned away from baths, showers, washbasins and other locations where splashing water could reach it.

Matt White Mild-Steel Construction

Product code 1212007 is supplied in a Matt White finish. The concealed structure is manufactured primarily from mild steel, providing a robust internal mounting assembly for plaster-in installation.

The neutral finish and trimless construction allow the visible opening to blend naturally into white, neutral and minimalist wall designs.

Unswitched Architectural Light

The Borgo Trimless 35 does not include an integral switch. It must be controlled through an external wall switch, sensor, timer, smart-lighting system or compatible dimming control.

This makes it suitable for coordinated lighting circuits where several marker lights are controlled together.
