Match style to architecture, ensure wet rating, and decide between integrated LED vs. bulb‑based for serviceability.

Typical mounting height is 7–9 feet. Taller heights spread light farther but require careful glare control near neighbors and roads.

Aim for 600–1500 lumens with diffused lenses for even coverage. Choose optics or shades that direct light downward.

Look for shielded designs and warm CCT to minimize uplight and glare. Add louvers if the lantern is in drivers’ sightlines.

Yes—add base‑mounted photocells, motion sensors, or smart modules. Verify space inside the base and follow wiring diagrams.

Powder‑coated aluminum, brass, or stainless with marine‑grade finishes perform best. Stainless hardware resists corrosion.

Most post lights are designed for a standard 3‑inch tenon. Confirm set screws and collar depth for a secure fit.

Use an anchor‑bolt base plate on new concrete or a core drill and epoxy anchors for existing pads. Keep the post perfectly plumb.

Integrated LEDs seal out moisture and insects; bulb‑based fixtures allow quick lamp changes. Choose based on maintenance preference.

Wash lenses, check gaskets and set screws, and touch up finish after chips. Inspect after storms for movement or water ingress.
