Know before you buy
Yes, the Alford Place lantern is designed for versatility and can be installed as either a post-top fixture or a pier-mounted light on flat surfaces like columns or walls.
The smaller version measures 10 inches wide by 20.25 inches high, while the larger option is 14 inches wide by 26 inches high. Choosing the right size depends on the scale of your post or the width of the pier where it will be installed.
The sealed glass roof is designed to protect the internal components from the elements, minimizing the need for frequent cleaning inside the fixture. We recommend a simple wipe-down with a damp cloth during your seasonal outdoor maintenance to keep the glass clear.
This lantern is designed for low-voltage wired installation. Please ensure your outdoor electrical system is compatible with these requirements or consult a professional electrician for proper setup.
The fixture is constructed from precision die-cast material, which is highly durable and resistant to corrosion. Both the Oil Rubbed Bronze and Museum Black finishes are applied to withstand outdoor exposure while maintaining their aesthetic appeal.
