Halden

Yes, this is a hardwired outdoor lighting fixture and must be installed by a qualified electrician in compliance with UK Building Regulations Part P. The bollard requires a mains connection at 220-240V and involves outdoor electrical work, which falls under notifiable electrical installation. Installation difficulty is rated as moderate, and you'll need to ensure appropriate weatherproof cabling and connectors are used for the outdoor environment.

The Halden produces 430 lumens from its 6W integrated LED, which provides sufficient illumination for pathway marking and ground-level accent lighting rather than broad area lighting. At 3000K warm white, it casts a welcoming ambient glow ideal for guiding movement along borders, driveways and patios. For a typical residential path, you'd likely need bollards spaced every 3-4 metres to maintain consistent visibility.

Yes, the Halden is rated IP65, meaning it's fully protected against dust ingress and low-pressure water jets from any direction. This makes it suitable for year-round outdoor use in typical UK weather including rain, though it's not designed for submersion or installation in areas prone to flooding. It's ideal for garden soil, lawn, borders and gravel installations as specified.

No, this bollard light is not dimmable. The integrated 6W LED driver does not support dimming functionality, so it will always operate at full 430-lumen output when switched on. If you require adjustable lighting levels for your garden, you would need to look at a different fixture with dimmable integrated LEDs or compatible external dimming controls.

The Halden uses an integrated LED module rather than a replaceable bulb, so the LED cannot be changed by the end user. Integrated LEDs typically last 25,000-50,000 hours (roughly 15-30 years of typical evening use), so replacement is rarely needed during the fixture's lifetime. If the LED does fail prematurely, the entire bollard would need to be replaced or the module serviced by the manufacturer.

The Halden stands 650mm tall (65cm) with a slender 60mm diameter profile, making it visible but unobtrusive in garden borders and beds. At this height, it sits below knee level for most adults, providing effective path marking without dominating sightlines across your garden. The matt black finish helps it blend naturally into evening landscapes whilst the cylindrical shape adds contemporary architectural detail during daylight hours.
