aperture trim question

18 years ago

OK - I'm not asking for opinions on whether or not you like recessed lighting!

I asked my electrical contractor for aperture trims on most of my lights. I gave him a printed picture of the Halo one, and he said he was familiar with it.

So he installed lights - (total gut remodel) - the ceilings have been sheetrocked and painted. I called and asked him to deliver the trim, so the painter could paint them. The trim he brought by is just plastic cones -

So now, as I'm looking for trim specs to give him AGAIN, I'm seeing that all the aperture trims I'm seeing are for low-voltage lights - the small-size bulbs. The lightbulbs hanging from the recessed lights right now (just for work lighting) are regular bulbs or regular flourescent bulbs.

So I'm worried. Am I not, after all, going to be able to get aperture trims for my lights???? Do they make them for regular size lightbulbs?
