Choosing The Right Light Post For Exterior Lighting

Nothing tops off a home or business like the welcoming glow beaming out from beneath a lamp post light.  This classic marriage of decoration and functionality has been in use longer than the invention of the light bulb, with early models powered by gas.  Most designs hark back to the Victorian Era where ornamental fluted posts and decorative bases reflected light along the otherwise moonlit streets and driveways of America and Europe in the 19th century.  This beloved look is recaptured and reborn with the introduction of our Post Mount Lights, not only created with the same traditional elements but also showcasing refreshing new designs.  These light designs are further accentuated by the addition of one of our rugged Light Poles that come with a choice for mounting, finish, and detail.  Of these distinct options offered the importance of mounting plays an important role in the way that your Post Mounted Light is displayed.  So many home and business owners overlook the use of the proper mount to showcase their light, either deciding to use the wrong mount for their application or using an out of box post from another manufacturer.  Barn Light Electric Light Poles offer options for a Direct Burial Post, Bolt Down Base Posts, and Decorative Cast Base Posts, with additional choices for smooth or fluted poles.  With each post comes various mounting choices to meet select state required codes.  The Direct Burial post offers the ability to sink the post in the ground, allowing it to be fixed into the ground by cement.  A more refined look can be gained by using the Bolt Down Base post that calls for a template to be added to the freshly poured concrete that is covered with a simple, smooth base.  Finally the Decorative Cast Base post expands on the function and detail of the Bolt Down Base, with a more traditional look punctuated by a thick ornate base.  In addition to the commercial-grade solid construction and a matching finish, another added benefit gained by using a matching light pole is the ability to customize.  This fact alone has separated Barn Light Electric from the pack, offering a wide range of finishes and customizable features guaranteed to enhance the look of your latest project.
