Northbrook, IL, May 15, 2025 – Birchwood Lighting, a Leviton company, announced today the expansion of its BW165 Recessed product family with the new Wall Grazer. This innovative lighting solution creates dramatic lighting effects, enhancing wall textures and creating striking visuals in both commercial and residential spaces.
The new Wall Grazer optic is available in two BW165 Recessed configuration options: the Perimeter Flush, which offers seamless installation and an integrated look, and the Perimeter 3-inch Regressed which creates a defined architectural edge with a subtle reveal. Both options maintain BW165’s compact 1.65” profile, delivering high quality illumination while remaining discreetly tucked away.
“The BW165 Recessed Wall Grazer offers a new level of design flexibility for architects and designers,” said Tom Leonard, Vice President of lighting and controls at Leviton. “Its compact size, powerful performance, and precise beam control allow for seamless integration into spaces. Whether highlighting artwork on the walls or architectural details, the Wall Grazer adds a layer of sophistication and elegance to any environment.
The innovative optical system of the BW165 Recessed Wall Grazer delivers a consistent, uniform beam of light that illuminates walls from ceiling to floor, showcasing textures within a space—from subtle details to bold, dramatic effects. Whether used in linear, rectangular or custom-shaped installations, the BW165 Recessed brings precision and consistency to every application.
Compatible with all ceiling and wall types, it offers maximum versatility for architects and designers. As part of the highly customizable BW165 Recessed family, the wall grazer configuration is simple to specify and easy to install.
