Description
The Paris is a 280mm-wide half-dome outdoor wall light made from galvanised steel with a silver powder-coated finish. A single E27 bulb socket (bulb sold separately) sits inside the dome, directing light downward and outward through the 140mm-high aperture. The IP43 rating protects against solid objects larger than 1mm and water spray at angles up to 60° from vertical, making the fitting suitable for covered porches, canopies, and recessed doorways where it won't face direct weather exposure.
Designed for wall mounting on exterior surfaces, the Paris projects 160mm from the wall and fixes via a circular back plate concealed behind the dome. The downward-facing light pattern works for illuminating steps, pathways and doorways without creating upward light spill, and the half-dome shape shields the bulb from direct view at eye level. The fitting suits front doors, side entrances, garage entries, and sheltered outdoor seating areas in residential, hospitality and commercial settings.
The galvanised steel construction resists corrosion in damp outdoor conditions, and the silver finish is a mid-tone neutral that sits between bright chrome and darker graphite. The E27 socket accepts standard Edison-screw LED, halogen or filament bulbs up to 60W, giving control over light temperature and brightness depending on the chosen bulb. Norlys back the Paris with an 8-year guarantee covering manufacturing defects and finish deterioration under normal outdoor use.

Frequently Asked
What does the IP43 rating mean for outdoor use?
IP43 protects against solid objects larger than 1mm and water spray at angles up to 60° from vertical. The Paris is suitable for covered outdoor locations like porches, canopies and recessed doorways, but should not be installed in fully exposed positions where it would face driving rain or direct hose spray.
What bulb should I use?
The fitting takes a standard E27 Edison-screw bulb up to 60W. Most users pair this with a warm-white LED between 6-10W and 2700K-3000K for exterior ambient lighting. Bulbs are sold separately.
How far does it stick out from the wall?
The Paris projects 160mm from the wall surface. This shallow projection suits locations where door clearance or pathway width is limited.
Can it be used on rendered or brick walls?
Yes. The circular back plate fixes to any solid exterior wall surface using appropriate wall plugs and screws for the substrate. The galvanised steel construction tolerates damp masonry substrates without rusting.
