Garden Path Bollard Light, 30 60 or 80 cm High, Die-Cast Aluminum IP65, 7W Warm White, Base Ø 16 cm, Black Bronze | CASA SOREA

Light along the path, not in your eyes

The difference between useful and obtrusive garden lighting lies in the direction of the light. A spherical lamp shines in your face and leaves the path dark; this bollard light has a layered cylindrical shape that directs the light downward, where you walk. Choose the height that suits your garden path: 30, 60 or 80 cm, with a width of 20 or 23 cm and a base diameter of 16 cm. Each lamp illuminates 3 to 5 m², so space them along the path. The housing is made of cast aluminum with polycarbonate and has an IP65 protection rating.

Why it works along a garden path

• Three heights: 30, 60 and 80 cm: 30 cm for a flower bed, 60 cm along a path and 80 cm by a driveway or entrance.
• Downward-directed light: the layered cylinder keeps you from looking into the light source as you walk along the path.
• Illuminates 3 to 5 m² per lamp: use this to calculate how many lamps you need for the length of your path.
• Base diameter 16 cm, mounting hole 12 cm: precise measurements to prepare for installation on tile or concrete.
• IP65: protected against dust and water jets, so it can withstand rain and a garden hose.
• Operating temperature -25 to 65 °C: stays outdoors year-round, even in freezing weather.
• 7W warm white with CRI above 85: plant and paving colors remain natural.
• Black or brushed bronze: two finishes in cast aluminum, 3 to 4 kg each.

Installing along a path

Allow 3 to 5 m² of illuminated area per lamp: for a ten-meter path, you would typically place three or four, alternating between the left and right sides rather than directly opposite each other. This lets the pools of light overlap, so there are no dark patches between the lamps. For a path, 60 cm is usually the right height, as the light spreads wide enough without the lamp itself standing out; for a driveway or house entrance, 80 cm works better because you need to see where the edge is from farther away. The wired version is surface-mounted on a hard, flat surface, so make sure there is a tile or concrete base at each chosen spot. The wired version operates on 110-240 V and is controlled with a wall switch; a solar-powered version is also available.
