Exterior Pillar Lighting
Ribbed glass and low architectural proportions for layered outdoor light
This modern outdoor pillar light combines a black die-cast aluminium body with transparent ribbed glass, creating a broad, low-set fixture for pathways, garden entrances, courtyards, terraces and exterior pillars. The horizontal glass texture introduces visual depth across the illuminated face, while the restrained square proportions keep the design closely connected to the surrounding architecture.
Five sizes range from L 9.8″ × W 9.8″ × H 7.1″ (24.9 × 24.9 × H 18 cm) through to L 23.6″ × W 23.6″ × H 13.8″ (59.9 × 59.9 × H 35.1 cm). Separate solar and hardwired configurations are available, providing flexibility for different exterior installation requirements.
Design & Material
A grounded square form defined by horizontal glass texture
The fixture uses a broad square footprint with a relatively restrained height, creating a substantial but grounded relationship with the supporting pillar or post. As the sizes increase, the design gains visual weight while retaining the same clean horizontal language.
Die-cast aluminium forms the black exterior body, while transparent ribbed glass creates the illuminated side panels. The horizontal texture breaks the light into subtle layers, adding depth to the otherwise minimal geometric form.
Dimensions
Five square proportions from compact to substantial
The collection begins with a 9.8″ (24.9 cm) square footprint and extends to 23.6″ (59.9 cm) square. The first three sizes share a 7.1″ (18 cm) height, with the two larger formats increasing to 9.8″ (24.9 cm) and 13.8″ (35.1 cm) respectively.
| Variant | Imperial | Metric |
|---|---|---|
| Size 1 | L 9.8″ × W 9.8″ × H 7.1″ | L 24.9 × W 24.9 × H 18 cm |
| Size 2 | L 11.8″ × W 11.8″ × H 7.1″ | L 30 × W 30 × H 18 cm |
| Size 3 | L 15.7″ × W 15.7″ × H 7.1″ | L 39.9 × W 39.9 × H 18 cm |
| Size 4 | L 19.7″ × W 19.7″ × H 9.8″ | L 50 × W 50 × H 24.9 cm |
| Size 5 | L 23.6″ × W 23.6″ × H 13.8″ | L 59.9 × W 59.9 × H 35.1 cm |

Product specifications
Size Options
Five scales for pathways, posts and substantial pillars
24.9 × 24.9 × H 18 cm. The most compact configuration for smaller posts and landscape structures.
30 × 30 × H 18 cm. A broader low-profile format while retaining the same overall height.
39.9 × 39.9 × H 18 cm. A substantial footprint with a restrained vertical proportion.
50 × 50 × H 24.9 cm. A larger architectural scale with increased height and visual weight.
59.9 × 59.9 × H 35.1 cm. The largest configuration for prominent exterior pillars and substantial landscape settings.
Power Options
Solar flexibility or fixed hardwired illumination
The solar configuration provides a 4W option for suitable outdoor positions where installation without an AC power connection is preferred.
The hardwired configuration operates at 110–240V with a stated 24W power rating and requires connection to an AC power supply.
Lighting Character
Layered illumination through horizontally ribbed glass
The transparent ribbed glass breaks the illuminated surface into fine horizontal bands, creating texture across the light without obscuring the fixture's geometric form.
The low, broad proportions allow the illuminated glass to read as part of the supporting architecture, particularly across larger pillar and landscape installations.
Placement
Designed for pathways, courtyards and architectural pillars
Installation
Base-mounted installation with solar or hardwired configurations
The fixture is designed for base-mounted installation on a suitable horizontal exterior surface. The solar configuration does not require hardwiring, while the hardwired version requires connection to an AC power supply.
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
Care for aluminium and ribbed glass surfaces
Wipe the fixture with a soft, dry 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.
