Exterior Pillar Lighting
Pagoda-inspired geometry with clear 360° illumination
This outdoor pillar light combines a pagoda-inspired silhouette with an octagonal die-cast aluminium frame and clear glass shade, creating a defined architectural feature for courtyards, gardens, lawns, yards and entrance areas. The 360° glass enclosure keeps the light visually open from multiple directions, while the structured frame gives the fixture a strong presence when mounted on posts or pillars.
Measuring W 7″ × D 6″ × H 19″ (W 17.8 × D 15.2 × H 48.3 cm), the fixture is offered in Straight Octagonal and Curved Octagonal styles, with separate solar and hardwired configurations. Lighting can be switched between 3000K Warm White, 4500K Neutral White and 6000K Cool White, while the solar configuration adds remote control, a 2W polycrystalline solar panel and 2200mAh rechargeable battery.
Design & Material
Octagonal structure with a layered pagoda profile
The faceted lantern body creates a more dimensional silhouette than a conventional square post light, while the pagoda-inspired roofline gives the fixture a distinctive upper profile. Straight and curved versions retain the same octagonal language while offering two different interpretations of the form.
A die-cast aluminium frame with baked painted finish forms the exterior structure, while clear glass surrounds the light source for high transmission and visibility from multiple directions. The contrast between solid frame and transparent glazing keeps the lantern visually defined without making the enclosure feel overly heavy.
Dimensions
Tall proportions for posts and exterior pillars
The fixture measures 7″ (17.8 cm) wide, 6″ (15.2 cm) deep and 19″ (48.3 cm) high. Its taller vertical proportion gives the lantern clear architectural presence while maintaining a relatively compact mounting footprint.

Product specifications
Style Options
Two interpretations of the octagonal lantern
Both configurations retain the same pagoda-inspired architectural character while changing the contour of the lantern body.
A more linear interpretation of the octagonal form, with straighter edges that emphasise the fixture's geometric structure.
A softer variation of the same octagonal language, introducing curved lines for a more decorative exterior profile.
Power Options
Solar convenience or a dedicated hardwired connection
The solar version incorporates a 2W polycrystalline solar panel, 2200mAh rechargeable battery and remote control operation for convenient exterior lighting.
The hardwired configuration operates at 110–240V and provides a dedicated AC-powered lighting arrangement for fixed installations.
Lighting Character
Three selectable tones behind clear glass
Three-step colour-temperature switching allows selection between 3000K Warm White, 4500K Neutral White and 6000K Cool White, giving the fixture a different visual character according to the surrounding exterior setting.
The 360° clear glass shade supports light transmission in multiple directions, allowing the illuminated lantern to remain visible around the perimeter of the post or pillar rather than presenting light from only one face.
Placement
Architectural lighting for gardens, courtyards and entrances
Outdoor Performance
IP54-rated protection for suitable exterior settings
The fixture carries an IP54 rating and is intended for appropriate outdoor installations. Its die-cast aluminium body and clear glass shade form a substantial exterior enclosure for courtyards, gardens, lawns, yards, posts, pillars and entry areas.
Installation
Base-mounted installation with solar or hardwired configurations
The fixture is designed for base-mounted placement on a suitable horizontal post, pillar or exterior structure. Select the solar or hardwired configuration according to the intended installation and available power arrangement.
Professional installation recommended for the hardwired configuration. Electrical installation should be completed by a suitably qualified electrician and in accordance with applicable local electrical requirements.
Warranty
Two-year warranty
The fixture is supplied with a 2-year warranty.
Care
Simple care for aluminium and clear glass
Clean the aluminium frame and glass surfaces with a soft, dry or lightly dampened cloth. Avoid abrasive pads and harsh chemical cleaners. For hardwired installations, isolate electrical power before cleaning.

Pillar Lights
Common Questions
Pillar lights are fixtures designed to mount on top of or onto the face of brick, stone, or rendered pillars, posts, and gate columns. They're commonly used at driveway entrances, garden gates, fence posts, and courtyard columns — providing both functional lighting and a strong architectural statement at entry points.
Yes. Pillar lights are built for permanent outdoor exposure. Check for an IP44 rating minimum for covered or sheltered pillars, and IP65 or higher for fully exposed installations. The IP rating for each fixture is listed on the product page.
Most pillar lights are hardwired into a 120V (US) or 240V (AU) outdoor circuit, with the cable routed through or along the pillar. Some post-top models sit over a hollow post with wiring fed through the centre. We recommend a licensed electrician for all hardwired outdoor installations.
Most of our pillar lights use integrated LED, so no bulb changes are ever needed. Integrated LEDs are rated for 50,000+ hours. Where a fixture takes a replaceable bulb, the compatible type and fitting size are listed on the product page.
As a general rule, the fixture should be no wider than the pillar face it sits on. Post-top models list the compatible post diameter in their specs. For gate pillars and columns, taller lantern-style fixtures tend to be the most proportionate. Full dimensions are listed on every product page.
A good starting point is matching the finish to your front door hardware — black, brushed nickel, bronze, or brass. Clean geometric profiles suit contemporary homes; lantern shapes suit federation, colonial, or classic brick builds. Coastal and hamptons-style homes generally suit white or brushed nickel with a simple silhouette.
Some models support dimming, some do not — this is listed on each product page. Dimmable fixtures require a compatible outdoor dimmer and may not work with all dimmer brands or smart home systems.
Yes. As long as the fixture is hardwired, it can be controlled by any compatible timer switch, smart switch, or home automation system wired into the same circuit. If you also want brightness control, ensure the fixture is dimmable and paired with a compatible dimmer.
