A Classic Coach Lantern With Built In Motion Security
The Acton in black is a traditional coach style outdoor wall lantern, its die cast aluminium frame and glass panels suited to entrances and porches that call for a classic look, with a built in PIR sensor adding automatic security lighting after dark.
Materials and Finish
Made from die cast aluminium finished in black, with clear glass panels around the light source.
How It Works
It takes one E27 GLS bulb (not supplied). A PIR sensor switches the light on when it detects movement nearby, and the fitting isn't dimmable or adjustable. It's wired to Class I, so it needs to be properly earthed during installation.
Where It Works Best
Rated IP44, this black Acton lantern suits front doors, porches and other covered exterior walls, providing traditional outdoor wall lighting with a PIR sensor for entrances and driveways.

Questions People Ask
Does the Acton wall light come with a bulb?
No, it takes one E27 GLS bulb which is not included, so you will need to buy one separately.
How does the PIR sensor work?
The built in PIR sensor detects movement nearby and switches the light on automatically after dark, then switches off again once no movement is detected.
Is the Acton wall light dimmable?
No, this fitting is not dimmable and its PIR sensor function cannot be adjusted.
Can I fit the Acton somewhere fully exposed to the weather?
It is rated IP44, which protects against splashing water, so it suits covered exterior walls such as porches and entrances rather than fully exposed, unsheltered spots.
Does the Acton need to be installed by an electrician?
It is wired to Class I and needs to be properly earthed, so installation by a registered NICEIC electrician is recommended.
