A Compact Black Lamp Post for Paths and Borders
The Searchlight Acton Outdoor Post is a low, traditional style lamp post in black, designed to line a path or border rather than stand as a full height entrance light.
Materials and Finish
The lantern head and post are made from aluminium and finished in black, with clear bevelled glass panels around the lamp compartment.
How It Works
It takes a single E27 bulb, not included, and is not dimmable. As a Class I fitting it needs to be earthed, so it should be installed by a qualified electrician.
Where It Works Best
Standing 50cm tall on a 23cm wide base and rated IP44, this post light suits garden paths, borders and low walls where a series of shorter posts can mark out a route after dark.
