{"product_id":"arched-black-aluminium-ip65-outdoor-wall-light-27-cm","title":"Arched Black Aluminium IP65 Outdoor Wall Light 27 cm","description":"\u003cp\u003eThis arched outdoor wall light dresses a façade with an indirect beam that grazes the wall rather than shining out of it. Its thickened aluminium alloy body, in a matt black finish, carries an IP65 rating. An integrated 18 W LED module does the lighting, in warm, natural or cool white as you choose, and the whole outdoor wall light is compact enough to disappear into the architecture.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eAn arched outdoor wall light with an indirect beam\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eA clean curve, simple lines and a volume of \u003cstrong\u003e27 cm wide, 10 cm high and 6 cm deep\u003c\/strong\u003e: that is the whole of this outdoor wall light, and it is why it sits so easily on a contemporary elevation. The indirect beam is the point of it. Light slides across the wall, bringing out the texture of render, cladding or stone, and because nothing is aimed outward there is no glare for anyone walking past, which matters more on a narrow path than most specifications admit. Fitted beside a door, a garage, an external stair or a terrace, this outdoor wall light marks a threshold without taking it over, and the diffused result stays comfortable late in the evening. At only 6 cm deep it is the shallowest kind of outdoor wall light to live with, so a gate or a door that swings close to the wall is not a problem, and a pair either side of an opening reads as deliberate rather than decorative. Six centimetres is shallow enough that nobody notices the fitting until it is dark. Repeated along a boundary wall at even centres, the same fitting draws a quiet line of light at low level.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eIP65 protection and specifications of the outdoor wall light\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis outdoor wall light is rated \u003cstrong\u003eIP65\u003c\/strong\u003e, described as fully sealed against rain and dust, which is what qualifies it for external use rather than a sheltered porch alone, and it is the rating British buyers search for by name. An outdoor wall light without a published rating is a guess, and an exposed wall is the wrong place to guess. The source is a \u003cstrong\u003ehigh-performance integrated 18 W LED module\u003c\/strong\u003e, part of the fitting, so there is no lamp to buy and nothing to change at the top of a ladder in winter. That is a real argument for an integrated outdoor wall light on a first-floor wall. Colour rendering of \u003cstrong\u003eCRI 80\u003c\/strong\u003e keeps the colours of the façade honest: warm white at 3000 K, natural or cool white, according to what the wall is made of. This outdoor wall light is \u003cstrong\u003enot dimmable\u003c\/strong\u003e and is controlled by a standard wall switch, so decide the output at the start rather than planning to adjust it later. On supply, AC 110 V to 220 V and the European CE mark complete the specification. Thickened aluminium, IP65, 18 W and CRI 80 make a short and coherent list, and no part of it depends on a seal you have to maintain. A fitting that cannot be opened is also one nobody can leave open by mistake. No weight is published; aluminium at this size is light, but an outdoor wall light still wants fixings rated for an external wall and a cable gland made off properly.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eFitting an arched outdoor wall light on a façade\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eThink first about the surface you want to reveal, because an indirect outdoor wall light is really lighting the wall rather than the garden. An outdoor wall light of this kind rewards a textured surface and does very little for a flat one. Warm white at 3000 K suits timber, sand-coloured render and brick; natural white suits pale concrete; cool white suits metal and glass. Set the mounting height so the arc of light falls where you want it, usually lower than instinct suggests, since the beam opens as it travels. Try the position with a torch before the outdoor wall light is fixed, which takes a minute and saves an afternoon. Render and stone both reward a lower mounting than instinct suggests. Because the fitting is not dimmable, confirm before fitting that 18 W and an indirect beam will do the job you have in mind, then have it connected with fixed wiring to the regulations in force. Keep the lens clear of leaves and cobwebs, which is the only maintenance an outdoor wall light of this kind asks for. Nothing about it needs opening, and nothing inside it needs replacing.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eSealed to IP65, compact, indirect and plain, this arched outdoor wall light shows a façade at its best with light that never points at anyone. Choose the colour temperature for the material of the wall, and set the height for the sweep you want. One fitting lights one bay of a wall, so plan one for each.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Alborra","offers":[{"title":"Warm white (3000K)","offer_id":55266700820817,"sku":"APP-595-BLA-AP","price":94.8,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Neutral white (4000K)","offer_id":55266700853585,"sku":"APP-596-LUM-AP","price":94.8,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Cool white (6000K)","offer_id":55266700886353,"sku":"APP-597-BLA-AP","price":94.8,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1089\/9878\/7409\/files\/alborra-applique-murale-exterieure-blanc-etanche-1.png?v=1792238222","url":"https:\/\/alborra.com\/products\/arched-black-aluminium-ip65-outdoor-wall-light-27-cm","provider":"Alborra","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
