A Low Level LED Post for Paths and Borders
The Melrose is a low level LED post light standing 50cm tall in a dark grey finish, giving a modern, understated way to light paths, borders and driveways.
Materials and Finish
Made from die cast aluminium, finished in dark grey with silver tones, with a slatted design that lets light spill out to the sides.
How It Works
The LED light source is integrated and cannot be replaced, producing around 185 lumens at a cool 4000K, and it is not dimmable. This fitting is wired to Class I and needs to be earthed as part of installation. We always recommend having any outdoor lighting like this fitted by a qualified electrician.
Where It Works Best
With an IP54 rating and a compact 50cm height, the Melrose suits garden paths, driveways and borders where low level lighting is needed rather than a taller feature light.
