Marina Circular Bulkhead Replacement Frosted Glass

This is a smooth frosted replacement glass for our Marina Circular Bulkhead and our Marina Guard Circular Bulkhead. It is a circular, milky-white glass that forms the face of the light, and it is the part people see first, lit or unlit. Frosted glass scatters the light from the lamp behind it, so the glow spreads evenly across the whole disc instead of showing a bright point, and the lamp itself stays out of view.

It is the glass for anyone who already has one of these bulkheads in place and wants to put it right. Outdoor lights by doors, passages and yards take the occasional knock, and a cracked or chipped glass spoils the look of an otherwise sound fitting. A new glass returns the light to the way it looked on the day it was fitted, without the cost and trouble of replacing the whole bulkhead. It is made for these two Marina lights, so check the name of your light before you order.

The surface is smooth rather than ribbed or patterned, which keeps the face of the bulkhead plain and makes the glass easy to wipe clean when grime gathers outdoors. The same glass suits both the Marina Circular Bulkhead and the Marina Guard Circular Bulkhead, so if you have both lights, one kind of spare covers either of them. A spare glass is worth keeping in the shed if your bulkhead sits where a ladder, a bicycle or a football might catch it.

Which lights does this replacement glass fit?

It fits our Marina Circular Bulkhead and our Marina Guard Circular Bulkhead, and it is made specifically for those two lights.

Is this glass clear or frosted?

It is smooth frosted glass, milky white in colour, which softens the light and keeps the lamp out of direct view.

Will it fit the guarded version of the Marina bulkhead?

Yes. The same smooth frosted glass suits the Marina Guard Circular Bulkhead as well as the Marina Circular Bulkhead.

Why does a bulkhead use frosted glass?

Frosted glass spreads the light evenly across the whole disc and hides the lamp, so the bulkhead gives a soft glow rather than a glaring point.

Can I replace a cracked glass without buying a new light?

Yes. If the glass on your Marina Circular Bulkhead or Marina Guard Circular Bulkhead has cracked or chipped, this glass replaces it and the rest of the light stays as it is.
