Overview

This recessed outdoor wall light is designed for those looking for a discreet and durable wall lighting solution. It installs flush with the wall, with no visible body protruding, and provides a warm light that is pleasant to walk by in the garden, entrance, or a facade during low-light hours.

The 3000K LED light creates an atmosphere without harshness. It does not glare, it does not create hard shadows. It simply marks the space softly, which is useful both on a garden path and at the entrance to a garage or on the side of a terrace.

The wall light is made of die-cast aluminium and 316L stainless steel, materials that hold up well against humidity, rain, and the temperature changes typical of outdoor environments. The opal tempered glass diffuser distributes light evenly and protects the LED source from dust and dirt.

FARO is a Spanish brand with decades of experience in lighting. Its catalogue covers both indoor and outdoor spaces, and this model reflects its approach well: careful finishes, proven materials, and a design that does not seek to draw attention, but to blend in.

Installation and specifications

Before installing the wall light, it is advisable to check the type of surface and make sure the ABS box fits correctly in the recess. When working with 24V DC voltage, a suitable transformer must be installed in the circuit beforehand. It is recommended that installation be carried out by a qualified electrician. The included box facilitates recessed mounting and ensures the assembly sits properly in the wall.

To keep the wall light in good condition, simply clean the glass diffuser and the satin stainless steel body with a damp cloth and no abrasive products. It is advisable to periodically check that there is no accumulation of dirt on the edge of the diffuser. As an outdoor product, it requires no special care beyond occasional cleaning.

Design and use

The FARO recessed wall light has compact dimensions: 100 mm high, 80 mm wide and 80 mm deep. This makes it a viable option even in walls with little thickness or in areas where available space is limited. It does not take up space, does not protrude, does not interfere with traffic.

The body combines die-cast aluminium with 316L stainless steel in a satin finish. 316L stainless steel is particularly resistant in environments with high humidity or salt exposure, making it suitable for installations near the sea or in humid climates. The aluminium adds lightness without reducing the robustness of the assembly.

The opal tempered glass diffuser softens the LED emission and distributes light outward evenly. There are no bright spots or shadowed areas. This uniformity is especially useful on garden paths or at the entrance to a home, where light should guide without being intrusive.

The 3000K SMD LED source generates a warm tone, similar to that of traditional incandescent lighting. This tone favours a more welcoming visual reading of the space than cold white light, and fits well both on contemporary-style facades and on stone or exposed brick walls.

The wall light operates at 24V DC, which means connecting it to a low-voltage system. Although this requires an external transformer, it also means greater safety in outdoor installations, especially where water or moisture is nearby.

One of the most notable features of this fixture is its resistance to rolling loads of up to 1400 Kg. This indicates that it can be installed on surfaces through which vehicles pass, such as garage entrances or paved paths. Not all outdoor wall lights are prepared for this type of load, and in this regard this model covers uses that others do not.

The IK08 impact resistance rating adds another layer of mechanical protection. This is a value designed for transit areas or where the wall light may be exposed to occasional impacts. The assembly does not deform or become easily damaged from accidental contact.

The fixture includes the ABS box necessary for recessed mounting in a wall or floor, which simplifies installation and avoids having to source accessories separately. The integration between the box and the body of the wall light is designed so that the final result is clean and aligned with the surface.

In terms of aesthetic integration, the satin stainless steel finish works well on modern facades with neutral finishes, but also adapts to more natural environments, such as gardens with dense vegetation or walls in earthy tones. A motion sensor can be integrated into the circuit externally if that functionality is desired. The included LED lamp does not require frequent replacement thanks to its long service life, keeping maintenance to a minimum.

Questions and answers

Can the wall light withstand vehicles passing over it?

Yes, it is designed to resist a rolling load of up to 1400 Kg, so it can be installed in entrances or surfaces where cars or other moderately heavy vehicles travel.

Is it necessary to purchase any additional accessories to recess the wall light into the wall?

No. The model includes the ABS box necessary for recessed mounting, so the assembly comes ready to install directly without the need for additional parts.

What supply voltage does this fixture require and what does it mean for installation?

It operates at 24V DC, which means it requires a compatible external transformer. This working voltage is common in outdoor installations and offers greater safety in environments with exposure to moisture.
