Know before you buy
The lighthouse is built using LP Smartside Panels, a high-grade siding material engineered to resist rotting, splitting, cracking, and warping. This ensures the structure maintains its integrity even when exposed to the elements.
If you purchase an unfinished model, you must apply a sealant immediately upon arrival to protect the wood. Finished models are treated with natural soy-based stains, which provide a protective layer right out of the box.
You can choose between a standard 25W bulb for steady illumination, a revolving beacon for a classic lighthouse effect, or a solar LED option. The solar LED model includes a convenient dusk-to-dawn sensor for automated, energy-efficient operation.
The base is optional and serves primarily as a foundation for aesthetic appeal and added stability. While the lighthouse can be placed without one, choosing a model with a base provides a wider footprint, which is recommended for taller versions to prevent tipping in high winds.
Because it is constructed from durable LP Smartside Panels, maintenance is minimal compared to traditional wood. We recommend periodic cleaning and inspecting the finish every few years to ensure the lighthouse remains in top condition.
Yes, the interior is hollow, and specific dimensions are provided for each model. Many customers use this space to conceal unsightly yard items, such as well pipes or electrical outlets, while still allowing access for lighting maintenance.
