Where the Punto 38 LED Outdoor Wall Light works in the house

Front and side doors. Mount one fixture on each side of the door, or one on the latch side if space is tight, with the center about 66 inches above the threshold.

Garages. Flank the door or place one between two doors, a little above the door's midpoint, so the light falls on the driveway and not into the neighbor's window.

Walls, courtyards and paths. Space fixtures about 8–10 feet apart for wayfinding, and check the projection against the walkway width.

Room planner: size, height and placement

The numbers below come from the manufacturer's specifications and our own placement rules, worked out for the Punto 38 LED Outdoor Wall Light.

• Beside the front door: a fixture about ¼ to ⅓ of the door height looks balanced: 20–27" for a standard 80" door (our rule of thumb). At 38", the Punto 38 is scaled for oversized doors, wide garages and tall facades
• Mounting height: center about 66" above the door threshold; for a fixture this tall, align the top with the top of the door frame (our advice)
• At the garage: one on each side, or one between two doors, a little above the door’s midpoint (our advice)
• Along a wall or path: about 8–10 ft apart for wayfinding (our rule of thumb)
• How far it sticks out: 4.7"

Ceiling and table figures are our calculation for standard room dimensions, so measure your space. Have a licensed electrician install hardwired fixtures.

Pulling the room together

Put the fixtures on a photocell or timer, repeat the finish on house numbers and the door hardware, and add path or step lighting so the entry is lit in layers.

For commercial and multi-unit projects

For hospitality entries, multifamily corridors, offices and retail frontages, we can help you specify one fixture and finish across elevations, check ratings for wet locations and plan quantities.

When another fixture is the better call

Care, cleaning and upkeep

The LED is built in, so there are no bulbs to replace (rated 60,000 hours to L70). Outdoors, rinse off dust, pollen and salt with mild soapy water and a soft cloth a few times a year, and avoid abrasive cleaners on the finish (our advice). Natural brass and copper are living finishes that weather and darken outdoors; that patina is part of the design. Visual Comfort covers it with a 5-year warranty.
