Description
The Turin is an upward-facing outdoor wall lantern with a black powder-coated die-cast aluminium frame, clear glass panels, and a single E27 socket rated to 60W. The four-sided tapered lantern head sits on a curved wall bracket with a decorative backplate, projecting 330mm from the wall when mounted. The IP54 rating provides dust and splash protection for UK exterior installation.
Designed for wall-mounting beside front doors, on porch walls, garage sides, and garden perimeters, the upward-facing configuration directs light onto the wall above and the underside of eaves or overhangs rather than straight out into the space. This makes the Turin well-suited to highlighting architectural features, soffit details, or creating wash light up a rendered or brick wall. The clear glass allows full visibility of the chosen E27 bulb — decorative filament styles or warm-white LED bulbs work equally well.
The die-cast aluminium construction withstands year-round exposure without the warping or UV degradation associated with polymer lanterns. The black powder coat is applied after casting, giving consistent coverage across the frame, bracket and roof cap. At 520mm tall and 200mm wide, the lantern suits typical single-storey entrance heights and garden wall installations without overwhelming the mounting surface. Norlys backs the Turin with a 5-year warranty that includes coastal installations, confirming the corrosion resistance of the aluminium and coating.

Frequently Asked
What bulb does the Turin take?
The lantern takes a standard E27 (Edison screw) bulb up to 60W. Bulbs are sold separately. Most installations use a warm-white LED bulb between 6-10W and 2700K for outdoor ambience, or a decorative filament-style LED if the bulb will be visible from street level.
Is it suitable for coastal locations?
Yes. The 5-year Norlys warranty explicitly includes coastal installations, confirming the die-cast aluminium and powder coat can withstand salt air exposure without voiding the guarantee.
Does the light shine upwards only?
The lantern is configured as an upward-facing fitting, directing most light onto the wall above and under eaves or overhangs. Some ambient light spills out through the clear glass sides, but the primary beam direction is upward rather than outward.
What wall fixing is required?
The backplate has pre-drilled mounting holes for wall plugs and screws into masonry, brick or rendered walls. The 330mm projection means the bracket extends quite far from the wall, so secure fixing into solid substrate is essential — mounting into hollow render or thin cladding is not recommended.
