Know before you buy
The hybrid design uses poly for the top and base—the areas most exposed to moisture and ground contact—to prevent rot and decay. The wooden center provides structural integrity and a traditional aesthetic, resulting in a piece that balances long-term durability with classic craftsmanship.
The integrated sensor automatically detects ambient light levels to turn your lighthouse on at sunset and off at sunrise. This feature is standard across all lighting configurations, ensuring your garden remains illuminated without the need for manual switches.
The solar LED option provides a soft, ambient glow suitable for accent lighting and decorative visibility. If you require a more powerful beam for navigation or high-intensity illumination, the hardwired 25W bulb or rotating beacon options are better choices.
This is a freestanding unit designed to sit directly on a level surface like a patio, deck, or prepared garden bed. While it is stable, we recommend placing it on a flat, solid foundation to ensure it remains upright during high winds.
The window lighting upgrade adds internal illumination that shines through the lighthouse windows, creating a warm, inviting glow. This feature is independent of the top beacon light and adds a realistic, lived-in look to the structure at night.
Because the base and top are made of durable poly, they can be easily cleaned with mild soap and water. The wooden center is weather-resistant, but we recommend checking it annually for any signs of wear and applying a fresh coat of exterior-grade paint or sealant if necessary.
