The Domus AVIGNON wall bracket, up-facing on an S-arm, holds the lanternabove the arm against a wall die-cast aluminium with a moulded acrylic lens,IP43, taking a B22 lamp, inbeige, black, burgundy, green or white.290mm projection, 500mm overall height.

This item is made to order

Domus builds this fitting to order and asks for up to 10 business days for productionbefore it ships. It is not picked off a shelf.

• That is the trade-off for the five finishes. The body is powder-coated in the colouryou choose after you order, which is why the range offers Beige, Black, Burgundy, Green and White ratherthan one stocked colour.
• Plan the lead time into the job. If it is needed for a handover, a settlement or abooked electrician, tell us the date when you order and we will confirm the production window withDomus.
• Order the whole set together. On a property using several of these, a second orderplaced later starts its own ten days and a later powder-coat batch is not guaranteed to match thefirst.

This is the traditional carriage-lamp arrangement thelantern held up and clear on a curved arm, the way an exterior lantern has been mounted on a wall for twohundred years.

It throws light further out than the down-arm version, because the lantern sits higherand the light has further to fall before it reaches the ground. That suits a facade, anapproach, or a wall seen from a distance, where the fitting reads as an object as much as alight.

The down-arm version is the better choice where people pass close to the wall a doorway, a step, a narrow side path because the lantern sits lower and puts light where they arewalking. Both take the same lantern and the same five finishes, so a property can mixthem.

Mounting height, and why it matters more on an up-arm

• 500mm overall, with a 290mm projection.
• On an up-arm the lantern is at the top of that 500mm, so the fixing point sitswell below the light. Set the fixing so the lantern is where you want it, not thebracket.
• Typically the lantern wants to be at 2.12.4m beside a door abovethe head of anyone standing there, below the eave.
• Check the eave. An up-arm needs clearance above it, and a 500mm fitting under alow soffit will not fit at the height you want.

The maximum lamp wattage is not recorded anywhere

• B22 bayonet, and no source states a maximum. Every AVIGNON configuration sharesthis.
• An LED B22 at 911W gives roughly what a 60W incandescent did andruns cool inside a sealed acrylic lens.
• On an up-arm a filament globe is more defensible than on the down version, becausethe lantern is held higher and further from the eyeline and a visible filament suits thetraditional form.
• 27003000K. Warm light on render, brick and stone reads as light; coolerreads as security.

IP43 and an up-arm is slightly more exposed

• Spray falling at up to 60 from vertical not driven rain, not hosing.
• The lantern sits higher and further from the wall’s shelter than on a down-arm, so onan exposed elevation it catches more. Under an eave it is well protected.
• The acrylic lens can craze under years of full sun. On a north-facing wall it is insun most of the day; expect the lens to need replacing before the die-cast body does.

Seven configurations of one lantern

A wall bracket at the door, posts along the path, a pillar mount at the gate one scheme in three mountings rather than three near-matches. No page in the catalogue says theothers exist. Tell us the positions and we will quote the set.

About the “Requires: Wall Bracket” line on its datasheet

Its sheet reads “Requires: Lamp GT-271 Wall Bracket” on a listing thatis a wall bracket. The line names another configuration in the family rather than apart. What this needs is a fixing into the wall and a B22 lamp.

Where it works

• Facades and approaches, where the fitting is seen from a distance.
• Beside a door under an eave, at 2.12.4m to the lantern.
• Period and traditional houses the carriage-lamp form.
• Not an exposed elevation with no overhang IP43.
• Check the eave clearance above a 500mm fitting.
• Ask us for the maximum lamp wattage.

Questions

Should I choose the up-arm or the down-arm?

Where the light needs to land, and who sees the fitting. The up-arm holds the lantern above the S-arm the traditional carriage-lamp arrangement and throws light further out, which suits a facade, an approach or a wall seen from a distance where the fitting reads as an object. The down-arm hangs it below, putting light lower and closer to the wall, which is better where people pass close by: a doorway, a step, a narrow side path.

At what height should I fix it?

Set the fixing so the lantern is where you want it, not the bracket on an up-arm the lantern sits at the top of the 500mm, so the fixing point is well below the light. Beside a door the lantern typically wants to be at 2.1 to 2.4m: above the head of anyone standing there and below the eave. Check the eave clearance, because an up-arm needs room above it.

How far does it stick out?

290mm from the wall. That is the same as the down-arm version, so the two are interchangeable in plan the difference is vertical. On a narrow path or beside a door swing, check it before fixing.

What is the biggest lamp I can put in it?

Not recorded in any source, and every AVIGNON configuration shares that gap. Neither the datasheet nor our record states a maximum for the B22 holder. An LED B22 at 911W sidesteps it roughly what a 60W incandescent gave, running cool inside a sealed acrylic lens. Ask us before fitting anything else.

Can I use a filament globe?

On this up-arm version, more defensibly than on the down-arm the lantern is held higher and further from the eyeline, and a visible filament suits the traditional carriage-lamp form. Keep it warm, 2700 to 3000K. On the down-arm, where the lantern sits closer to eye level for anyone approaching, opal is the better choice.

Is IP43 enough?

Under an eave, comfortably. On an exposed elevation with no overhang it is marginal and an up-arm sits higher and further from the wall’s shelter than a down-arm, so it catches more. IP43 covers spray falling at up to 60 from vertical, not driven rain and not hosing. Tell us the position and we will say.

Can I match it elsewhere on the property?

Yes the same lantern head is made in seven configurations: this up-arm bracket, a down-arm bracket, a pillar mount, a post top, a chain pendant, and single, twin or triple head on posts of six heights. A wall bracket at the door, posts along the path and a pillar mount at the gate is one scheme in three mountings. Tell us the positions and we will quote the set.
