MORO GU10 In-Ground Light IP67 Round Drive-Over Uplighter - Steel

The MORO is a recessed in-ground light that sits flush with the surface it is set into, so it can be walked over as part of a path, patio or driveway edge. It takes a single GU10 PAR16 lamp drawing up to 20W and runs straight from a 220-240V AC mains supply. American buyers will recognise this format as a well light or in-grade fitting, set into the ground rather than standing above it. The round body has a Ø110mm face and a 125mm depth below the surface, and the light is directed upward to graze a wall, tree trunk or building facade with a focused vertical wash.

Because the throw is aimed straight up rather than spread across a room, the MORO is best judged on the surface it lights rather than a floor area. A run of them along a boundary wall, set close to the base, produces a series of overlapping uplight pools that pick out texture in brick, render or timber cladding. It also suits framing a single specimen tree or marking the line of a driveway. With an IP67 rating the fitting handles fully exposed outdoor positions, standing water and burial, so it can be sited where rain collects or where the ground is regularly wet. Allow for drainage in the recess pocket so water does not pool around the housing.

The body is aluminium alloy with a stainless steel face ring, finished in steel for corrosion resistance underfoot. The IP67 seal keeps out dust and water during temporary submersion, while the IK08 rating gives the impact strength expected of a fitting that is stood and walked on. It recesses into the ground or decking and accepts a standard GU10 lamp, so the light source can be changed without replacing the fitting. The MORO weighs 458g and measures Ø110 × 125 mm overall.

Can the MORO be walked or driven over?

It is designed to recess flush with the surface so it can be walked over, and the IK08 impact rating supports foot traffic. For regular vehicle loads check the load requirement against the installation, as IK08 covers impact rather than a stated drive-over weight.

Is it suitable for wet and exposed outdoor locations?

Yes. The IP67 rating means it is dust-tight and protected against temporary submersion, so it can sit in fully exposed ground, areas where rain collects and damp soil. Provide drainage in the recess so water clears away from the housing rather than standing against it permanently.

Does it take a separate bulb and which type?

The MORO uses a single GU10 PAR16 lamp rated up to 20W, which is supplied separately so you can choose the beam angle and colour temperature to suit. It runs directly from a 220-240V AC mains supply with no additional transformer required.

How should the fitting be cleaned?

Wipe the steel face ring and lens with a damp cloth to clear soil, leaf debris and water marks, as ground-level fittings collect dirt quickly. Avoid harsh abrasives that could scratch the lens, and keep the surrounding recess clear so drainage is not blocked.
