Turin Large 2 Light Twin Lamp Post - Black

The Turin Large is a 2 light twin lamp post standing 1910-2790mm tall, built from die-cast aluminium with a black powder-coated finish and two clear glass lantern heads. Each lantern houses an E27 socket rated for bulbs up to 60W (sold separately), and the twin-arm configuration spreads light across a 910mm width from a single post position.

Designed for front gardens, driveways, gate posts and pathway junctions where higher light output and wider coverage are needed than a single-head post can provide, the Turin Large suits properties with traditional or period architecture. The IP54 rating protects the internals from dust ingress and water splashing from any direction, making the post suitable for year-round outdoor installation in UK weather including coastal locations. The post height is adjustable between 1910mm and 2790mm depending on the ground installation method (surface-mounted or set into concrete).

The die-cast aluminium construction resists corrosion better than pressed steel or plastic alternatives, and the black powder coat finish provides a consistent low-sheen surface that weathers well without requiring annual repainting. Each clear glass panel is bevelled at the edges and held in a hinged frame, allowing bulb access without removing the entire lantern head. The tapered column and moulded base give the post visual weight without appearing overscaled in typical suburban front garden proportions.

What bulbs does it take?

The Turin Large takes two E27 (Edison screw) bulbs up to 60W each. Bulbs are sold separately. Most users pair this post with warm-white LED bulbs between 6-10W and 2700K for soft ambient lighting, or daylight LEDs around 4000K for security and task lighting on driveways.

How is the post installed?

The post can be surface-mounted onto a concrete base using the flange at the bottom, or set directly into a concrete footing for a seamless finish. The adjustable height range of 1910-2790mm accounts for different installation methods and ground levels.

Is it suitable for coastal locations?

Yes. Norlys specifies no coastal exclusion zone for the Turin range, meaning the die-cast aluminium and powder coat finish are robust enough for salt air exposure. Regular rinsing with fresh water during winter months will extend the finish life in coastal installations.

Can the glass panels be replaced if broken?

The glass panels are held in hinged frames that open for bulb access. If a panel is damaged, contact us for replacement glass availability. The bevelled clear glass is a standard profile used across the Turin range.
