An Open Frame Outdoor Post With a Clean, Architectural Look
The Searchlight Aubery is a 450mm outdoor post light in matt black with a clear diffuser, built as a low level marker light rather than a tall lamp post. Its open box frame lets the bulb show through on every side, so it reads as a lantern rather than a solid bollard.
Materials and Finish
The post is made from die cast aluminium with a polycarbonate diffuser, finished in matt black. The square top and base give it a more architectural, contemporary look than a traditional rounded post light.
How It Works
It takes a single E27 bulb, not included, and has a fixed head rather than an adjustable one. It is not dimmable. As a Class I fixture it needs to be earthed, so it should be installed and wired by a qualified electrician along with the rest of your outdoor lighting circuit.
Where It Works Best
Rated IP44, the Aubery is built to handle rain and splashing water, making it a practical low level marker for a driveway edge, path or garden border. Because it sits at 45cm high, it works well spaced out in a line rather than as a single statement light.

Questions People Ask
What bulb does the Aubery post light take?
A single E27 bulb, which is not included, so you can choose the brightness and colour temperature you prefer.
Is the Aubery light suitable for a driveway or path?
Yes. It is rated IP44 for outdoor use exposed to rain and splashing water, and its 45cm height makes it well suited to marking a driveway edge or path.
Can I dim this light?
No. The Aubery has a fixed, non dimmable fitting.
Does it need to be earthed?
Yes. It is a Class I fixture, so it must be earthed and should be wired by a qualified electrician.
How many Aubery posts do I need for a driveway?
That depends on the length of your driveway and how much spacing you want between posts, but most customers space low level post lights every few metres for even coverage.
