FAQs

What type of light bulb does this fixture use?

The Dockside Wall Light uses an E27 screw-in type bulb. Please check the fixture's label for the maximum wattage recommendation.

Is this light suitable for use in a coastal environment?

Yes, it is fabricated from cast aluminum with a powder-coated finish and features an IP rating, making it suitable for coastal, rural, and urban locations.

Does the light come with a light bulb?

No, the light bulb is not included with the fixture. You will need to purchase an E27 bulb separately.

Can I install this light myself?

While basic installation might be possible for those experienced with electrical work, professional installation by a qualified electrician is recommended to ensure safety and compliance with electrical codes.

How should I clean the light fixture?

Clean the aluminum body with a soft, damp cloth and mild soap if necessary. Avoid harsh chemicals. Clean the glass with standard glass cleaner and a soft cloth.

What does the IP rating mean?

The IP (Ingress Protection) rating indicates the degree of protection against solids (like dust) and liquids (like water). An appropriate IP rating signifies its suitability for outdoor and potentially wet environments.

Are there other glass options available for this model?

This specific model features clear glass. Other variants of the Dockside light may be available with frosted glass or different finishes. Please check the product catalog for alternatives.

Troubleshooting

Light does not turn on.

Check that the power supply is on. Verify the light bulb is screwed in correctly and is not burnt out. Ensure wiring connections are secure and correct.

Flickering light.

This could indicate a loose bulb or a faulty bulb. Try tightening the bulb or replacing it. Also, check the wiring connections for any looseness.

Corrosion on the aluminum body.

While durable, prolonged exposure to harsh elements can affect the finish. Clean gently with a damp cloth. For significant corrosion, consider a specialist metal polish suitable for coated aluminum, and reapply protective coating if necessary.

Glass shade is loose.

Carefully inspect how the glass is secured. Ensure any retaining clips or screws are tightened appropriately without overtightening, which could crack the glass.
