Grimstad LED Recessed Wall Light - Graphite

The Grimstad is a recessed LED wall light designed for flush mounting into exterior walls, with a graphite-finished louvered faceplate that sits 110mm proud of the mounting surface once installed. An integrated 7.4W LED behind the louvers casts 3000K warm white light downward, providing step illumination, path marking or low-level accent lighting on patios and driveways.

Built to IP65 standard, the fitting resists dust ingress and water jets from any direction, making it suitable for year-round outdoor installation in the UK. The recessed design keeps the body within the wall cavity, minimising projection and reducing the risk of impact damage on narrow pathways or beside gates. The louvers shield the LED from direct view at standing height, reducing glare while directing useful light onto the ground below.

The graphite powder-coated aluminium faceplate measures 271mm wide by 126mm high, sized to fit standard brick coursing on masonry walls or timber stud cavities on rendered facades. The 110mm recess depth requires a cavity behind the mounting surface — this can be cut into solid walls or built into stud framing during construction. The 7.4W output provides approximately 400 lumens, enough to mark a step edge or illuminate a 1.5-2m section of path without over-lighting the surrounding area.

What IP rating does the Grimstad carry and where can it be installed?

The fitting is rated IP65, providing full protection against dust and water jets from any direction. It can be installed on exterior walls exposed to rain, including coastal and high-humidity environments.

Can the LED be replaced?

The 7.4W LED is integrated into the fitting and non-replaceable. Norlys LED modules typically last 25,000-30,000 hours, which equates to approximately 10-15 years of typical outdoor use. The entire fitting is covered by a 5-year guarantee.

How much wall cavity depth is required for installation?

The fitting requires a minimum 110mm recess depth behind the mounting surface. On solid masonry walls this means cutting a chase; on timber stud walls the cavity can be built during framing. The faceplate dimensions are 271mm x 126mm.

What light output does the 7.4W LED provide?

The 7.4W LED delivers approximately 400 lumens at 3000K warm white. The louvered design directs light downward, making it suitable for marking step edges, illuminating 1.5-2m sections of path, or providing low-level accent lighting on patios without creating glare at eye level.
