LONG LASTING LIFE – One of the biggest draws of LED bulbs is their long lifespan. Whereas you can only expect traditional bulbs to burn for 1,000 or so hours, LED bulbs have a minimum of 20,000 hours of use. This will not only spare you the costs of constantly replacing the lights, but it will also save you the energy and effort of constantly going outside to maintain them.

When it comes to installing up and down wall lights, outdoor design matters. The height at which you choose to mount your light will come down to personal preference and how it fits into the existing design scheme of your outdoor living area. Get a classic and classy look in your outdoor living area with the LWA370 6 Watt Brass Up and Down Outdoor Wall Light. This brass wall light features a beautiful finish that catches the up and down illumination and reflects it. It outputs a total of 600 lumens of 3000k warm white light that shines at a 20-degree beam angle. Thanks to its IP65 rating, you can enjoy peace of mind that the fixture won’t corrode or otherwise wear down in the elements. COLOUR RANGES – LEDs have the unique benefit of coming in a huge range of warm and cool lights. You can select the one that best suits your taste or needs and customise the appearance in a way you can’t with traditional halogen bulbs. WATER RESISTANCE –By choosing wall lights with an IP rating of IP44 or better, you can fortify your up and down exterior lights against moisture, both from rain and from the ocean spray. SAFE IN COLD TEMPERATURES – LED lights actually tend to work better in colder environments, as they thrive on low-voltage operation.Coastal areas present their own challenges when it comes to outdoor lighting. Elements are present here, such as sand and salty air that you won’t find further inland. When choosing your exterior wall lights, this should be kept in mind.

LED up and down wall lights are considered to be the best option when it comes to your lighting. LED bulbs pose many benefits that make them the prime choice, both in terms of interior and exterior lighting. A few of the perks of LED lighting include: With LED wall lights, the illumination is the star. If you are framing a window or door, you could use a fitting that throws light both up and down such as the WL170. Other products offer effects within effects. Use the WL060 or WL160 for a broad spread of light downwards with a diffused glow above, or the MC040 or MC050 for a broad beam downwards and a narrow ascending flare. If you have sufficient ceiling height, equal columns of concentrated bi-directional light look tremendously striking - and work brilliantly when flanking a mirror. Ultimately, it is up to you, but the light should at least be high enough that they shine on the steps near the door and the immediate porch area.That said, there is a general rule of thumb for mounting lights: install the light around eye level to avoid glare. This usually means installing the up down wall light around 1.6 to 1.7 meters. It is generally agreed that when installing a porch up and down wall light, you do so just above eye level, as you would anywhere else. This typically means putting the up and down outside lights between 3/4 and 7/8 of the door’s height. In so doing, those approaching the door won’t have light glaring in their eyes. Porch lights offer a chance to accomplish this, especially if you like the look of a symmetrical design. One of the most common ways people install their porch wall lights is by placing one on either side of the door.

LOW ENERGY – LED lights saw their popularity rise initially due to their energy efficiency. They leave behind a low carbon footprint and consume less energy to generate light. This can translate into savings on your energy bill over time, while also lessening your environmental impact. Up and down lights are a unique way to bring visual appeal to your space. Outdoor up and down lights especially can take your living area to the next level by adding gorgeous external wall lights to your garden. In this article, we’ll explore exterior up and down lights and how to make the most out of them. An up and down wall light does precisely what the name suggests: shines illumination above and below the fixture. A bulb sits at the top and the bottom of the fixture, outputting light both upward and downward on the wall. This creates a beautiful glow that is commonly used for accent lighting.
