Outdoor Wall Light NORLYS Stockholm 226GA hot-dip galvanised E27 IP54

Stockholm 226GA is an outdoor wall light with a clear polycarbonate shade enclosed in a cage of horizontal rings and vertical rods made of hot-dip galvanised steel. It is 23.5 cm tall and 21 cm wide and projects 14 cm from the wall. The wall base is powder-coated cast aluminium.

How big it is and how it mounts

Compare 23.5 × 21 cm with the space beside your door or between two windows, and the 14 cm projection with the width of the passage below it. The fitting is fixed to the wall through two ø5 mm holes at 80 × 80 mm spacing, and the supply cable must be round, 7–10.5 mm in diameter. It weighs 2.7 kg.

It is protection class I, so the installation needs a protective earth conductor, and it is connected by an electrician.

Which bulb and how much light

The fitting takes an E27 bulb of A55–A60 shape, LED only, up to 9 W. No bulb is included; Norlys offers the option of ordering it with a dimmable Philips Master LEDbulb 806 lm / 8.5 W / 2700 K. 806 lm is roughly what an old 60 W bulb gave, and 2700 K is warm, slightly yellowish light.

Through the clear shade you see the bulb itself, so its shape and colour decide how the fitting looks after dark. Light spreads sideways, downwards and up the façade — the BUG rating B0-U3-G1 means a noticeable share of the flux goes upwards.

Build and durability

Hot-dip galvanising is a zinc layer applied by dipping the steel into molten metal; it protects against corrosion and has a raw, silvery-grey tone that dulls over time. The polycarbonate shade is UV-stabilised, so it does not yellow in the sun, and a silicone gasket seals the fitting.

IP54 means protection against dust and against water splashed from any direction, so the light can hang on an exposed wall. Impact rating IK10 is the top of that scale, 20 J. The manufacturer gives an operating range of −20 to +45 °C. The shade and gasket are available as spare parts.

Norlys describes Stockholm as a fitting of Scandinavian design for gardens, private grounds and public areas — by the house, on a balcony, and also outside hotels and restaurants. The same model comes in black as Stockholm 226BL.
