Turin Large Outdoor 1 Light Up Wall Lantern - Black

The Turin is a large outdoor wall lantern with a black die-cast aluminium frame, clear glass panels and an upward-facing E27 bulb fitting. The lantern measures 670mm high by 300mm wide with a 460mm projection from the wall, giving it substantial presence on entrance porches, garage walls and front elevations. The IP54 rating confirms protection against dust ingress and water spray from any direction, making it suitable for year-round UK exterior use including exposed positions.

Designed for entrances, doorways and patio walls, the upward light orientation casts illumination onto overhead soffits and wall surfaces above the fitting, creating indirect ambient light rather than direct downward task light. This suits applications where architectural features above the lantern benefit from accent lighting, or where a softer wash of light is preferred to a direct beam. The clear glass panels allow maximum light output from the bulb while the pyramidal roof cap prevents rain from entering the chamber.

The die-cast aluminium construction gives the fitting rigidity and weather resistance without the weight of solid brass or bronze, and the powder-coated black finish resists corrosion in coastal and urban environments. Norlys backs the Turin with a five-year warranty with no coastal exclusions, meaning the finish and structural integrity are covered even in salt-air locations. The E27 socket accepts any standard Edison screw bulb up to 60W, giving flexibility to choose between warm filament styles, cool LED outputs, or decorative cage bulbs depending on the setting.

What does the IP54 rating mean for outdoor use?

IP54 confirms the lantern is protected against dust ingress and water spray from any direction. This makes it suitable for all UK exterior applications including exposed walls, coastal locations and areas subject to driving rain. It is not submersible and should not be installed where it will be submerged or directly hosed down.

What bulb does it take?

The lantern takes a standard E27 Edison screw bulb up to 60W. Bulbs are sold separately. Most installations pair this with a warm-white LED filament bulb between 6-10W and 2200K-2700K to replicate traditional gas lantern aesthetics, or a decorative cage bulb where the bulb itself is visible through the clear glass.

Does the upward light direction provide enough illumination for a doorway?

The upward orientation casts light onto the soffit and wall above the fitting, creating indirect ambient light rather than direct illumination of the ground or door threshold. For doorways needing direct light on steps or the door itself, consider pairing with a downward-facing lantern or adding a second fitting mounted lower on the wall.

Is the five-year warranty valid in coastal areas?

Yes. Norlys explicitly confirms no coastal restrictions on the warranty for the Turin range, meaning the finish and construction are covered even in salt-air environments.
