Product Lineup

CAN2432-BK (SATIN PLATINUM CLEAR GLASS)

This model combines an elegant satin platinum metallic finish with clear glass. The soft, diffused light lends a calm sense of luxury to entrance porches. It pairs well with wood doors and tiled entryways, making it ideal for homes aiming for a hotel-like atmosphere. Built for outdoor use and PSE-certified.

CAN2422-BK (MATTE BLACK CLEAR GLASS)

A lantern-shaped silhouette in matte black. The crisp black tone makes a great accent against white exterior walls or brick, working well across styles from modern to country. Lining up several fixtures at a rhythmic interval brings a sense of unity to the exterior.

CAN2421-BK (MATTE BLACK CLEAR GLASS)

A standard wall-mounted model. With a versatile design that keeps a traditional look without being overstated, it works well as the main light beside an entrance or as supplementary lighting under the eaves. Recommended for homes that value visual stability.

CAN2971-BK (MATTE BLACK CLEAR GLASS)

A model whose appeal lies in its decorative, classic form. The curves and detailed design add an accent to the exterior, and installing it around the garden or on a gatepost creates a dramatic effect. It also improves nighttime visibility.

CAN1161-BK (MATTE BLACK CLEAR GLASS)

A model with a slightly substantial, classic form that adds a calm sense of luxury to the whole house. Installed beside the porch or gate, it helps anchor the visual “center of gravity” of the exterior.

Key Points for Choosing Outdoor Bracket Lights

• Finish (Color):

Matte black suits a wide range of exteriors, while satin platinum lends an air of refinement.

• Weather Resistance and Materials:

In coastal areas or regions with heavy snowfall, pay close attention to rust-proofing and coatings. Check whether the product meets domestic standards such as PSE.

• IP Rating (Water Resistance):

Choose a fixture with an appropriate IP rating for locations exposed to direct rain. Requirements differ between a sheltered spot under the eaves and a spot fully exposed to rain.

• Bulb and Dimmer Compatibility:

Check the socket standard (such as E26), whether dimming is supported, and whether LED bulbs can be used. Be aware that bulb size or heat generation can sometimes prevent a bulb from fitting inside the shade.

• Mounting Strength:

For heavier fixtures, consider reinforcing the mounting surface.

Installation and Maintenance Tips

• Installation Height:

Beside the entrance door, aim for roughly 160-180cm from the ground. Matching it to eye level tends to look well balanced.

• Installation:

Always have electrical work performed by a licensed electrician. Wiring, grounding, and checking the strength of the support are all essential.

• Cleaning:

About once every six months, gently clean the glass with a neutral detergent. Use a dedicated cleaner on the metal parts to maintain the protective coating. In areas prone to salt damage, cleaning more frequently will help the fixture last longer.

• Parts Management:

Since imported products carry a risk of discontinuation or parts shortages, we recommend checking the availability of replacement glass and parts in advance.

Ideas from Real Installations

• Entrance Porch (CAN2432): Paired with white tile or a wood door, it creates a warm expression that gently welcomes visitors at night.

• Flanking the Entrance (CAN2422 / CAN2421): Arranged symmetrically on either side, they emphasize the approach and add a sense of rhythm to the exterior.

• Beside the Garage (CAN2971 / CAN1161): Their classic form anchors the composition, adding cohesion and a sense of luxury to the whole exterior.

Finally, outdoor lighting requires not just good design but also safety, weather resistance, and reliable installation.
