Asten 12W LED Bulkhead 600x110 Cool White - Chrome

The Asten is a slim rectangular LED bulkhead that draws 12W and puts out 1010 lumens of crisp 4000K cool white light. Across the US this style of fitting is more often called an outdoor wall sconce or wall pack, and the Asten follows the same wall-mounted format. The integrated LED is fixed at a single cool white tone, with a wide asymmetric spread of 125° × 110° pushing light evenly along the surface it sits on rather than throwing a tight beam. At 600 × 110 × 42 mm it stays low against the wall, with light efficiency rated at 84 lm/W.

Its 1010-lumen output and broad beam make the Asten a practical choice for marking and washing a wall surface rather than lighting a whole room, so think of it as targeted illumination for entrances, corridors and circulation areas. The IP44 rating means it copes with splashes and damp, which suits bathroom zones away from direct water and covered outdoor positions such as a porch or carport. Keep it clear of fully exposed locations, direct water jets and anything submerged, as the rating does not extend that far. Mounted at head height or above, the wide spread helps light feel smooth across the wall and minimises harsh shadows.

The body is aluminium alloy in a chrome finish, giving a solid feel and a reflective face that ties in with bathroom and hallway fittings. The LED is built in, so there is no separate bulb to replace, and the fitting is not dimmable, running directly from a 220-240V AC mains supply. It fixes flat to the wall as a surface-mounted unit, with a rated lifespan of around 25,000 hours. The Asten range carries further wall fittings in matching finishes if you want a consistent look across several rooms.

Can the Asten be used in a bathroom or outdoors?

Its IP44 rating means it resists splashes and damp, so it suits bathroom zones away from direct water and sheltered outdoor spots such as a porch or carport. It is not rated for fully exposed positions, direct water jets or submersion, so keep it under cover when used outside.

Does it take a replaceable bulb?

No, the Asten uses an integrated LED rather than a separate lamp, so there is no bulb to fit or change. The 12W array delivers 1010 lumens at a fixed 4000K cool white tone, with a rated lifespan of around 25,000 hours.

Where does this bulkhead work best?

The wide 125° × 110° beam spreads light evenly across a wall, making it well suited to entrances, hallways, stairwells and bathroom walls. Mounting it at head height or above gives the smoothest spread and the fewest harsh shadows.

How do I clean the fitting?

Wipe the chrome face and aluminium body with a soft, dry or slightly damp cloth once the fitting is switched off and cool. Avoid abrasive pads or solvents, which can dull the chrome finish over time.
