Comparison

Surface-mounted grazer vs recessed (in-ground) grazer

Reviewed under Eng. Abdullah Al Balushi

“Want to light your courtyard wall? Do you buy the one set into the ground or the one fixed with screws?”

The problem

Choosing the wrong mounting method, which spoils the flooring.

Technical explanation

Recessed fittings set into the screed are ideal for villas under construction and give a clean look. Surface fittings with clips are excellent for finished villas because they don't require breaking the tiles.

The result

Making the right decision at the shell (structural) stage saves you the cost of reworking tiles later.
