Description

A ground spike is the quiet part of any garden lighting scheme, and this is one of the black iron ground fixings we keep for outdoor spots and small floodlights. It stands 26cm, tapering to a point, with a flat top to carry the fitting above it. There is nothing electrical about it and no lamp involved: it is a support, and that is the whole of it. Aluminium keeps the weight down, so it presses into soft ground easily and adds almost nothing to the fitting it holds.

It comes into its own where a light needs to stand in planting rather than on a hard surface: through a border, in gravel, among low shrubs, or at the foot of a tree so the beam can travel up into the branches. Since the spike sits in the earth, the light can be lifted and repositioned as beds fill out over the summer or as you rethink a corner of the garden. We suggest it to anyone building up a garden scheme in stages, and to gardeners who like to move their lighting with the planting.

Aluminium suits a component that lives half buried, since it will not rust the way steel does, and the black finish disappears into dark soil and bark mulch. Cleaning is a garden job rather than a household one: knock the earth off, run it under an outside tap if it has been in clay, and let it dry before it goes back in the shed for winter. It carries a one year warranty. The same range includes a flat black aluminium ground plate for lights that need to sit on paving or decking, so a run of matching spots can move between planting and hard landscaping without looking mismatched. Fittings are bought separately.

Frequently Asked

How long is the spike?

It measures 260mm along its length, with a 60mm head, so the point sits well down into the soil while the top stays clear of the surface.

Is there any wiring in it?

No. It is a non-electrical component, so it carries no lamp, no socket and no cable of its own. The light fitting it supports handles all of that.

What is it made from?

Iron, finished in black. It weighs only 45g, which is part of the appeal: it holds a garden spot steady without loading it down.

Will it cope with wet ground?

Yes. It is made for outdoor use and is unaffected by damp soil, standing water in a border or a winter left in the ground.

What if I want the light on paving instead?

We also stock the matching black aluminium ground plate from the same range, which gives a flat base for hard surfaces where a spike cannot go in.

How should I clean it?

Lift it, brush or rinse the soil away, then dry it off. Nothing abrasive is needed on the black finish.
