Uplights

Uplights and up-downlights create visual interest and add depth to your outdoor décor by projecting light upwards.

Downlights

Downlights only project light downwards and are ideal for providing adequate lighting for pathways, stairs or entrances.

Spotlights

Spotlights are especially effective at highlighting specific features such as architecture or sculptures and keeping areas well-lit all year round.

Up and down lights

Up down lights are mounted directly to the wall, providing both upward and downward illumination.

FAQs

What is a PIR wall light?

PIR stands for Passive Infrared and works by detecting movement and turning the light on for a period of time. They can be used for security purposes, temporarily lighting up dark areas to deter people or to provide extra lighting for CCTV.

PIR motion sensor lights are an excellent choice for those seeking a reliable and energy-efficient outdoor lighting solution. They emit light only when triggered by movement, making them a cost-effective option when compared to traditional continuous lighting.

What brands of outdoor wall lights do you supply?

Our fantastic range of wall outdoor is made up of trusted, industry-leading lighting brands such as Knightsbridge, Lutec, Saxby, Searchlight and Eterna. The brands we work with are chosen for quality to ensure extensive and long-lasting products for our customers.

Where is the best position for outdoor wall lights?

Outdoor wall lights are perfect for illuminating entrances, pathways, steps and paths to prevent accidents and guide the way in the dark. They can also be used as accent lights to highlight trees, plants or architecture. Outdoor wall lights can be placed in corners, above doorways and along building walls. Adding solar lights to highlight walkways and seating areas can be an excellent addition to wall lighting.

How many lumens should an outdoor wall light be?

The greater the number of lumens outdoor lights have, the brighter the light they will emit. Our lights range from 30 to 1455 lumens so it's easy to find the right kind of lighting for you, from ambient lighting to high intensity lights for larger outdoor areas. Typical outdoor lighting is between 100 and 300 lumens.

What is an IP rating and which IP rating do I need?

All of our outdoor wall lights are IP rated and designed to withstand the elements for reliable lighting in the unpredictable British weather. IP stands for 'Ingress Protection' and it refers to the level of protection a fixture has against solid objects and moisture. The higher the IP rating, the more protection the product offers from environmental factors which is important to keep in mind when choosing your outside wall lights. For example, a light rated IP44 is the recommended minimum for general outdoor use and is better suited to sheltered areas, while a light with a rating of IP65 or above can withstand the equivalent of a low-pressure water jet from any direction, and is dust tight.
