Outdoor Lights

Finding Your Way Around Our Outdoor Lighting

Lighting the outside of your home covers far more ground than a single porch fitting. You might be marking a boundary, guiding feet along a path, washing a wall with warm light or picking out a favourite tree after dark. Our outdoor lighting brings together separate ranges, each built around a particular job, so you can go straight to the fittings that suit your project. This page is here to orient you. Below we group the related ranges together and explain who should open each one, so you spend less time scrolling and more time planning. Whether you are dressing a front door, working through a full garden scheme or fitting out a commercial site, there is a starting point here for you.

Lighting Walls and Entrances

The walls of your home are usually the first place people add light, and we have three ranges dedicated to them. Outdoor Wall Lights is the broadest starting point, spanning modern and traditional shapes suitable for gardens and exterior walls, with most fittings rated IP44 or above and holding a single lamp. If you want a more classic look built around glazed panels and a hanging form, Outdoor Wall Lanterns focuses on that traditional lantern style, again largely IP44 rated for exterior use. For lights set into the fabric of the wall itself, Brick Lights offers small fittings with integrated LEDs and low wattage, many of them recessed, ideal for a discreet glow along a wall face or beside a doorway. Start with Outdoor Wall Lights if you want the widest choice, move to Outdoor Wall Lanterns for a period feel, and open Brick Lights when you want light without a projecting fixture.

Overhead and Hanging Light

When you need light from above, several ranges cover porches, canopies and covered outdoor rooms. Outdoor Ceiling Lights holds mainly ambient, modern ceiling fittings in metal, many in a small width band and many rated to IP44, suitable for a sheltered ceiling or a porch. Outdoor Pendant Lights suspends light lower, mixing traditional hanging lanterns with pendant shapes, largely using E27 lamps for a familiar warm glow. For something more decorative overhead, Outdoor Chandeliers gathers larger multi-arm fittings in a traditional style, rated to IP44 and sitting in the larger size bands, so they suit a generous covered space. Choose Outdoor Ceiling Lights for a flush or close-mounted fitting, Outdoor Pendant Lights when you want the light to drop down, and Outdoor Chandeliers where you have the height and width for a centrepiece.

Recessed and Downward Light

For light built into ceilings, decking, walls and the ground, our recessed ranges keep the source tucked away. Outdoor Downlights is a large range of fittings in metal and aluminium, many of them recessed and many with integrated LEDs, suited to soffits and covered ceilings. Outdoor Ground Lights covers decking and ground fittings for accent lighting, many recessed and driven by integrated LEDs, ideal for uplighting from below. Recessed Ground Lights narrows this to flush in-ground fittings, with many rated to IP67 for full weather exposure underfoot. Outdoor Step Lights provides small integrated LED accent fittings designed to mark treads and level changes, non-dimmable and low wattage. Open Outdoor Downlights for overhead recessed light, Outdoor Ground Lights or Recessed Ground Lights for uplighting set into the ground, and Outdoor Step Lights to make steps safer after dark.

Accent, Spot and Feature Lighting

To pick out planting, textures and features, our directional ranges let you aim light where you want it. Outdoor Spotlights combines many adjustable spotlights with some wall-mounted and downlight forms, many of them modern or industrial in feel, for accent lighting across a garden. Spike Lights push into soil or beds, mostly decking and ground fittings supplied on a spike, many of them low wattage and often rated to IP65, so you can move them as planting grows. Both suit uplighting trees, shrubs and walls. Choose Outdoor Spotlights when you want a fixed, aimable fitting on a wall or surface, and Spike Lights when you want a ground-set light you can reposition through the seasons.

Paths, Posts and Freestanding Light

Guiding people through the garden calls for light at a lower level, and several ranges handle this. Bollard & Pathway Lights is the main choice here, spanning bollards, post fittings and some lanterns, mostly single-lamp and ambient, many using E27 lamps to line paths and drives. Lamp Posts raises light higher on post and pillar fittings, largely aluminium, for a traditional lamp-post look at an entrance or along a driveway. For portable and standalone light, Outdoor Floor Lamps offers freestanding fittings, most of them outdoor rated and many of them warm white, while Outdoor Table Lamps brings many smaller warm white lamps, many with integrated LEDs, to tables and seating areas. Start with Bollard & Pathway Lights for path edges, Lamp Posts for taller entrance lighting, and the floor and table lamps when you want moveable light around a patio.

Decorative and Party Lighting

For softer, festive light across a garden or seating space, our string ranges add atmosphere rather than task light. Outdoor String Lights runs festoon and string fittings, mostly with integrated LEDs and low wattage, many rated to IP44, ideal for draping across a patio, pergola or fence. Outdoor Net Lights offers a mesh format of festoon and string lights, all with integrated LEDs in a white finish and rated to IP44, useful for laying over a hedge, shrub or wall for an even wash of tiny points of light. Choose Outdoor String Lights when you want to hang lines of light overhead, and Outdoor Net Lights when you want to cover a surface with a spread of light.

Security and Larger-Scale Lighting

Some outdoor lighting is about coverage, brightness and safety rather than mood. Floodlights deliver wide-beam light for large areas of a garden or the side of a building. Security Lights adds motion detection to the mix, with many fittings including PIR sensors, daylight colour temperature and polycarbonate bodies, so light comes on when movement is detected. For commercial and larger sites, Street & Car Park Lights provides wide-beam, cool white integrated LED fittings rated to IP66, built for task lighting across car parks and access routes. Open Floodlights for bright general coverage, Security Lights when you want a sensor to trigger the light, and Street & Car Park Lights for larger commercial spaces.
