Overview

The FARO outdoor wall light is a wall lamp designed for outdoor spaces where functional and durable lighting is needed. It is mounted directly on the wall, without additional structures, and adapts well to house entrances, terraces, gardens or facades. The square body and dark grey finish give it a contemporary look that fits effortlessly into modern or clean-design environments.

What sets this wall light apart is its IP65 certification, which guarantees complete protection against dust and against water in the form of rain or splashes. This makes it a solid option for permanent outdoor installations, without the need for additional covers or concerns about weather conditions.

FARO is a brand with a long track record in the lighting sector. Its products combine quality materials with current design criteria, aimed at both residential use and larger-scale projects.

Installation and specifications

For installation, it is necessary to have a recessed junction box in the wall or access to existing wiring on the surface. As this is a wall-mounted light, it is advisable to verify that the wall can support the weight of the unit and that the connection point is well aligned with the base of the wall light. It is recommended that installation be carried out by a qualified electrician, especially outdoors where the watertightness of connections is essential.

For maintenance, simply clean the surface with a soft, slightly damp cloth. Avoid abrasive products or solvents that could damage the aluminium finish or the PC diffuser. Do not handle the lamp with the power connected. Although the IP65 rating protects against water, direct cleaning with pressurised water is not recommended.

Design and use

The FARO wall light features a square format design with compact dimensions of 170 x 170 mm and a depth of 90 mm. These dimensions allow it to be installed in spaces where a bulkier lamp would look out of proportion, such as a narrow entrance, the side of a door or an outdoor corridor. The discreet silhouette does not take attention away from the surroundings, but rather complements them.

The body is made of aluminium, a material that combines lightness and strength. Outdoors, this makes a difference: aluminium does not rust easily, withstands temperature variations well and maintains its appearance over time. The dark grey finish reinforces that sense of solidity and works well with concrete, stone, dark wood or neutral-toned cladding facades.

The diffuser is made of polycarbonate with an opal finish. This material disperses light evenly, preventing the light source from being visible from certain angles and reducing glare. The light it projects is soft and uniform, suitable for passageways, entrances or spaces where visibility is sought without aggressive lighting. The colour temperature of 3000K offers a warm tone that is pleasant in residential environments at nightfall.

The light source is of the SMD LED type, already included with the unit. This means that no additional components need to be purchased to get it up and running. The 10 W power output makes this wall light an efficient solution for outdoor wall lighting without high energy consumption. The universal voltage of 100V to 240V makes it compatible with electrical installations in different countries, which may be a relevant factor in renovations or projects in areas with different standards.

In terms of application, this wall light fits well at the main entrance of a single-family home, flanking a door or placed on the side of the facade to mark the access point. It also works on the terrace as a fixed light source, or in a garden to illuminate a path or an outdoor seating area. In hospitality or commercial projects with outdoor access, the dark grey finish and contemporary aesthetic allow it to be integrated without complications.

The square body of the wall light follows a geometric design language associated with contemporary styles and architecture. It has no ornaments or decorative details that place it in a specific style, making it versatile. It can be placed alongside straight-lined garden elements, metal joinery or facades with modern cladding. It also works well alongside other luminaires from the same range if a coherent installation across different outdoor points is desired.

Installation does not require any special tools beyond those commonly used for wall work. The wall or support where it is fixed must be in good condition and capable of holding the weight of the unit without any issues.

Questions and answers

Does the wall light withstand direct rain or does it need some kind of additional protection?

It does not need additional protection. This wall light has IP65 certification, which means it is completely sealed against dust and protected against water jets from any direction. It can be installed outdoors exposed to rain without any problem.

Is the LED light source included or does it need to be purchased separately?

The lamp includes the 10 W SMD LED light source. No additional components need to be purchased. The unit is ready to plug in and install directly.

What is the colour temperature of this lamp and what type of light does it produce?

The colour temperature is 3000K, which corresponds to warm white light. It is a pleasant tone for residential outdoor spaces, similar to the light perceived on a terrace or at a well-lit entrance at dusk. The opal diffuser helps to distribute that light evenly, without bright spots.
