Description
The Solden is a horizontal outdoor LED wall light with an angled white powder-coated aluminium housing that projects 75mm from the wall. The integrated 9W LED sits behind a frosted polycarbonate diffuser, casting 773 lumens of warm 3000K light through a 118° beam angle. The top edge of the housing angles outward to deflect rainwater away from the diffuser panel.
Designed for exterior wall mounting on residential entrances, garage sides, patio walls and garden pathways, the Solden delivers both functional illumination and visual definition at doorways and transitions. The 180mm width and low 90mm height suit standard brick coursing and vertical timber cladding installations. The IP65 rating means the fitting is sealed against dust ingress and protected against water jets from any direction, making it suitable for exposed positions including coastal environments.
The white finish blends cleanly with rendered facades, UPVC trim and light-painted weatherboard while maintaining visibility during daylight hours. The 118° beam spread produces a wide wash of downward light rather than a narrow spotlight effect, reducing harsh shadows on steps and threshold areas. The non-dimmable 9W LED consumes approximately 78.8kWh per year if run for 24 hours per day, though most outdoor fittings operate on motion sensors or timers that reduce actual consumption significantly.
The 3 year warranty covers the integrated LED module, rated for around 25,000 hours of use. The 0.7kg weight keeps fixing simple, needing only standard rear anchors into brick or timber, while the low 90mm height and 75mm projection sit the fitting flat against the wall in passing spaces.

Frequently Asked
What does IP65 mean for outdoor use?
IP65 means the fitting is fully dust-sealed and protected against water jets from any direction. It can handle rain, coastal spray and pressure washing without water entering the housing. This makes it suitable for exposed wall positions including near gutters and downpipes.
Can this be mounted vertically instead of horizontally?
The Solden is designed for horizontal mounting with the angled top edge facing upward to deflect rain. Mounting it vertically would direct the light sideways rather than downward and may reduce the rain-shedding effectiveness of the angled housing.
Is the LED replaceable?
No. The LED is integrated into the fitting and rated for approximately 25,000 hours of operation. At typical outdoor usage of 4-6 hours per day, this equates to 11-17 years before noticeable brightness degradation. The entire fitting would need replacing at end of life.
What wall surface is needed for installation?
The fitting mounts to any solid outdoor wall surface including brick, blockwork, rendered masonry and exterior-grade plywood. The 0.7kg weight is light enough for standard exterior wall plugs and screws. The backplate covers the cable entry point and fixing points once installed.
