Description
The Asten is an 8W LED bulkhead that fixes flat to the wall and throws a soft, wide spread of warm white 3000K light across the surface in front of it. With a wide 120 x 105 degree beam and an integrated LED rated at 84 lm/W, it washes the area evenly rather than picking out a single point, giving steady illumination beside a door, along a corridor or above a basin. Bulkhead fittings like this one are known in the US as a wall pack or outdoor wall sconce, a familiar shape for sheltered entry points and utility walls.
The slim rectangular profile, 600mm long and just 42mm deep, sits close to the wall so it suits tight passageways, porches and stairwell walls where a deeper fitting would feel intrusive. Its wide beam makes it a good choice for marking a sheltered doorway or grazing a hallway wall, and the warm 3000K tone keeps the light inviting rather than clinical. The IP44 rating means it copes with splashes and damp, so it works in bathroom zones away from direct spray and in covered outdoor spots such as a porch or carport. Keep it clear of fully exposed positions, direct water jets or anywhere it could be submerged.
The body is aluminium alloy in a chrome finish, a robust shell that stands up to knocks in busy thoroughfares. It is a fixed colour temperature, non-dimmable fitting running on 220 to 240V AC mains with no separate transformer to specify, and the integrated LED is rated for around 25,000 hours so there is no bulb to replace over its working life. The Asten wall mounts directly to the surface and weighs only 290g, keeping installation straightforward. Other wattage and finish options sit alongside this model in the Asten range.

Frequently Asked
Can the Asten be used outdoors?
Yes, in sheltered positions. Its IP44 rating means it resists splashes and damp, so it is suited to covered outdoor spots such as a porch or carport. Avoid fully exposed locations or anywhere exposed to direct water jets.
Is a bulb included with this fitting?
No separate bulb is needed. The Asten uses an integrated 8W LED rated for around 25,000 hours, so there is nothing to fit or replace during its working life. It runs straight from 220 to 240V mains.
Where is this bulkhead typically used?
It works well beside doors, along hallways and corridors, on stairwell walls and in bathroom zones away from direct spray. The slim 600mm rectangular body sits close to the wall, making it a tidy choice for tighter passageways and sheltered entrances.
How do I clean the Asten?
Switch it off and let it cool, then wipe the chrome body and diffuser with a soft, slightly damp cloth. Avoid abrasive pads or harsh solvents, which can mark the finish. A gentle wipe now and then keeps the light output looking even.
