Glintis Outdoor LED Bollard Light - Grey, 4000K, 9.5W

The Glintis is a 600mm outdoor LED bollard light with a cylindrical frosted diffuser mounted on a powder-coated grey aluminium post. The integrated 9.5W LED emits neutral white 4000K light through the frosted cylinder, providing functional pathway illumination without glare. The IP44 rating protects against splashing water and dust ingress, making the fitting suitable for UK gardens, patios, driveways and pathways.

Designed for garden path edging, driveway runs and patio perimeters, the Glintis provides consistent ground-level illumination at approximately 1.2m spacing intervals along typical residential pathways. The 120mm diameter base plate fixes directly to concrete, paving slabs or gravel surfaces via the supplied mounting hardware. The grey powder-coat finish resists UV degradation and weathering across UK seasonal temperature ranges.

The frosted polycarbonate diffuser surrounds the entire LED module, creating 360-degree light distribution rather than a directional beam. This makes the Glintis particularly effective for pathway marking where visibility from multiple approach angles matters. The neutral 4000K colour temperature sits between warm domestic lighting and cool commercial floodlights, providing clear visibility of pathway edges and surface textures without creating stark shadows or colour distortion.

The aluminium construction keeps the overall weight to approximately 1.2kg while maintaining structural rigidity against wind loading and incidental contact. The grey finish pairs comfortably with contemporary render finishes, natural stone paving and modern composite decking without creating visual contrast against warmer material palettes.

What does the IP44 rating cover?

IP44 protects against solid objects larger than 1mm and splashing water from any direction. The Glintis is suitable for exposed UK garden and patio installation but should not be installed in areas subject to direct water jets, flooding or full submersion.

What spacing is recommended for pathway lighting?

For typical 1-1.2m wide residential pathways, spacing the Glintis bollards at 1.2-1.5m intervals provides continuous illumination without dark gaps. For wider driveways or paths, stagger bollards on alternating sides rather than increasing individual spacing.

Can the LED module be replaced?

The LED is integrated into the fitting and is not user-replaceable. Ideal Lux rate the LED module at approximately 25,000 hours of operation, which translates to roughly 8-10 years of typical evening-use in a residential garden setting.

What surface types can it be mounted to?

The 120mm diameter base plate can be fixed to concrete, paving slabs, compacted gravel or timber decking using appropriate fixings. On loose gravel or soft ground, pour a small concrete pad beneath the base to prevent settlement and tilting over time.
