Styles and Mounting Options for Post Lighting

The outdoor post lights category encompasses both traditional pole-mounted fixtures and specialized base mounts, ensuring solutions for every landscape design.

  • Classic Lamp Post Lights: These fixtures, often referred to as lamp post lights or post lanterns, are designed to mount atop a standard post or pole (typically 3 inches in diameter). They provide a traditional, elevated presence, acting as prominent exterior post lights for front yards and entrances.
  • Pier Mount Lights: These adapters allow an outdoor post light fixture to be mounted securely onto flat, horizontal surfaces, such as stone pillars, brick columns, deck posts, or wall caps. Pier mount lights are perfect for adding stylish illumination where a full-height pole is unnecessary.
  • Traditional Post Lanterns: The most popular style, featuring multi-sided glass panels reminiscent of classic coach lanterns, providing a warm, welcoming glow.
  • Modern Post Lighting: Sleek, minimalist designs with clean lines and geometric shapes, often utilizing integrated LED outdoor post light technology for sharp, efficient illumination.
  • Durable Construction: All post lights outdoor fixtures are built with robust, weather-resistant materials to ensure long-term performance against the elements.

  • Columns and Pillars: Pier mount lights are specifically used on architectural columns or stone pillars near patios or mailboxes, adding structural definition and ambient lighting at a lower height.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is the standard height for an outdoor lamp post light?

Lamp post lights typically stand between 6 to 8 feet tall when fully assembled with the fixture head. This height ensures the light spreads widely across the lawn and provides adequate visibility for driveway lights and pathways.

What is the difference between a pier mount light and a post light?

A post light (or post head) is the fixture that mounts to the top of a pole. A pier mount light is the fixture base that mounts onto a flat horizontal surface (like a stone column or brick pillar), allowing a standard outdoor post light to be used without a tall pole.

How far apart should I place my outdoor post lights for effective lighting?

For effective and attractive illumination, place post lights outdoor fixtures no further apart than 2.5 to 3 times their height. For an 8-foot lamp post, they should be placed every 20 to 24 feet along the pathway or driveway.

Are outdoor post lights good for security?

Yes. By providing widespread, 360-degree illumination, exterior post lights eliminate large shadow areas in the yard and along driveways, making them essential outdoor security lights that deter intruders and enhance visibility.

What size pole do I need for my lamp post lights?

Most outdoor post lights are designed to fit a standard 3-inch outside diameter pole or post base. Always confirm the required diameter specified by the fixture manufacturer before purchasing the pole.
