{"product_id":"bulkhead-outdoor-light","title":"Anthracite Oval Bulkhead Outdoor Light, Ribbed Glass, IP54","description":"\u003cp\u003eThis bulkhead light for outdoor walls takes the shape of ship-hold and workshop lamps: an oval ribbed glass diffuser, capped by a hood, held in an anthracite aluminum body. It gives a diffuse, glare-free light and handles moisture thanks to its IP54 rating. On a facade, under a porch, in a garage or a basement, it brings reliable lighting with real character. It will appeal to fans of industrial and nautical style, or to anyone who simply wants a solid outdoor light that never dates.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eDesign and materials of this oval bulkhead outdoor light\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe body is aluminum, a metal that does not rust and stays light on the wall. The ribbed glass spreads the light evenly and protects the bulb. The anthracite finish underlines the oval silhouette and pairs with gray or black window frames, a metal garage door, brick or wood siding. It is a useful object first, but its simple, honest shape also makes it a facade detail. For a coherent look, repeat the same bulkhead wall light along a whole wall.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eSize and installation\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMounting\u003c\/strong\u003e: wall.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eIngress protection\u003c\/strong\u003e: IP54, protected against dust and splashing water.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePackage weight\u003c\/strong\u003e: about 3.3 lb (1.5 kg).\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003cp\u003eMount the light on a junction box, about 71 to 79 in (1.80 to 2 m) from the ground beside a door. IP54 protects against splashing water from all directions, but not against immersion: avoid spots where water pools or runs constantly. Turn off the power at the breaker before any work and have the fixture connected by an electrician, especially outdoors. Use anchors suited to the surface, hollow brick or concrete.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eThe light\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe light takes an E27 bulb, not included. Choose a compact LED that fits under the diffuser. Outdoors, a 2700 to 3000 K warm white stays welcoming and attracts fewer insects. In a garage, basement or workshop, a 4000 K neutral white helps you work and find things. The ribbed glass softens the source and spreads the light across the whole bulkhead, with no blinding spot.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eWhere to put a bulkhead outdoor wall light\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eAt the entrance, mount one on each side of the door to frame the doorstep. In a garage, line up two or three above the workbench, about every 5 ft (1.5 m), for even light. In a basement or a storage room, it handles the ambient humidity better than an indoor light. On a garden shed or an outbuilding, it makes the path safer at night and lights the lock.
