Trimlight vs Gemstone Lights (2026)
Gemstone Lights is a strong national brand with dealers across Texas, and if you've searched for permanent lighting in Lubbock you've almost certainly seen their name. Here's how the two systems actually compare for a South Plains home.
| Trimlight | Gemstone Lights | |
|---|---|---|
| Track & channel | Low-profile color-matched aluminum channel under the eave | Track system mounted under the eave; comparable concept, different housing design |
| LEDs | Commercial-grade RGB diodes, individually programmable | RGB or RGBW diodes depending on package |
| Product warranty | Lifetime product warranty | Multi-year warranty (verify current terms with dealer) |
| App | Trimlight Edge — schedules, patterns, millions of colors | Gemstone HUB app — schedules, patterns, HomeKit/Google integrations on some setups |
| Local presence | Family-owned, Lubbock-based install and service crew | National brand; Lubbock coverage served through regional dealers |
| Financing | Up to 60-month terms available | Varies by dealer |
The bottom line
Gemstone makes a good product, and their marketing reach is enormous — but marketing reach doesn't climb a ladder when you need a repair. With Trimlight Lubbock you get a lifetime product warranty, a 2-year labor warranty, and a local family business answering the phone.
