TURIN 2LT 1.49M POSTLIGHT B22

The Domus TURIN 2LT 1.49 m postlight is a twin-head exterior post — 1,440 mm high, 680 mm wide, B22, 240 V, IP43, in five colours.

⭐ The widest-to-tallest ratio in the range — and it reads as one

• ⭐ 680 mm of arm span on a 1,440 mm post. ⭐⭐ THAT IS NEARLY HALF ITS HEIGHT ACROSS, the broadest proportion of any TURIN post.
• ⭐ THE TALLER TWINS CARRY THE SAME 680 mm SPAN ON POSTS UP TO 2,440 mm, so they read as slender. ⭐ This one reads as wide — two lanterns held out either side of a short column rather than lifted above it.
• ⭐ WHICH IS EITHER THE EFFECT YOU WANT OR THE ONE YOU DO NOT. ⭐ It is emphatic at low level, which suits a gateway or the head of a path where a single short post would be too quiet. ⚠ It is not a run fitting: a line of these along a drive is busy in a way the single-head 1.32 m version is not.
• ⚠ AND 680 mm IS A REAL FOOTPRINT AT WAIST HEIGHT. ⭐ Check the clearance either side — a path narrower than about 1.5 m with one of these beside it is a fitting people walk into.

⭐ Two heads, one hole in the ground

• ⭐⭐ THE SAVING IS THE GROUNDWORK, NOT THE FITTING. ⭐ Every post means a footing dug and poured, a conduit run and a cable pulled — and across a paved area that means cutting and reinstating. ⭐ Two heads on one post halves all of it.
• ⚠ THE TRADE IS SPACING. ⭐ The two heads are 680 mm apart where two separate posts could be metres apart, so a twin concentrates light at a point rather than distributing it.
• ⭐ SO USE IT WHERE A POINT WANTS MORE LIGHT — ⭐ a gateway, an entrance, a junction of two paths — and single-head posts for the runs between.
• ⭐ AT 1.49 m IT ALSO CATCHES LESS WIND THAN THE TALL TWINS, ⭐ so the footing requirement is more modest than the 2.11 and 2.47 m versions'.

⭐ Two lamps, and they must match

⭐ Two lamps are needed and neither is included. ⭐⭐ ON A TWIN AT THIS HEIGHT MATCHING MATTERS MORE THAN ON A TALL ONE: the two lanterns are 680 mm apart and at chest height, so they are seen together and close up. ⭐ Any difference in colour temperature or brightness is unmissable. ⭐ Buy them as a pair from one batch and replace them as a pair — a single replacement three years in will not match its neighbour. ⭐ Opal rather than clear, because at chest height a clear lamp is a bright point directly in the view of anyone walking past. ⭐ Warm rather than cool.

⚠ IP43 at low level

⭐ IP43 covers spraying water to 60° from vertical — ⛔ not driving rain, hosing or sprinklers. ⚠ AT 1.44 m BOTH LANTERNS ARE WITHIN SPRINKLER RANGE, which the tall twins are not. ⭐ Check the irrigation layout before setting the post. ⚠ Two lanterns also means two sets of seals and lampholders — check both when maintaining, not only the one that has stopped working. ⭐ The bottom 300 mm of the post is where mowers and edgers reach; keep mulch and soil off it.

⭐ One casting, seven arrangements

⭐ The TURIN head serves as a wall bracket, pillar mount, post top, pendant, and on single, twin or triple-head posts — single at 1.32, 1.96 and 2.37 m, twin at 1.49, 2.11 and 2.47 m, triple at 2.47 m. ⭐⭐ A PROPERTY CAN USE THIS TWIN AT THE GATE, SINGLE POSTS ALONG THE PATH AND A WALL BRACKET AT THE DOOR and have them read as one scheme, because they are the same lantern. ⭐ Bracket reference GT-421.

⛔ Made to order

Allow up to 10 business days for production. ⭐ Five colours applied to order. ⚠ Order the property's fittings together so the finish comes from one batch.

✅ What is published

Where it works

• ⭐⭐ Gateways and path heads — ⭐ emphatic at low level.
• ⭐ Where groundwork is expensive — ⭐ one footing, two lights.
• ⭐ With single posts for the runs between.
• ⚠ Not in a line along a drive — ⭐ busy at this width.
• ⚠ Not beside a path under 1.5 m — ⭐ people walk into it.

Specifying it

Twin-head exterior postlight. 1,440 mm high, 680 mm wide. B22, two lamps required, neither included. 220–240 V. IP43. Light die-cast aluminium with moulded acrylic lens, made in Italy, powder-coated in Australia. Five colours. Made to order, up to 10 business days. 1-year warranty. ⭐ 680 mm OF ARM SPAN ON A 1,440 mm POST IS NEARLY HALF ITS HEIGHT ACROSS — the broadest proportion of any TURIN post. The taller twins carry the same span on posts up to 2,440 mm so they read as slender; this one reads as WIDE, two lanterns held out either side of a short column rather than lifted above it. That is emphatic at low level, which suits a gateway or the head of a path where a single short post would be too quiet — but it is not a run fitting. ⚠ AND 680 mm IS A REAL FOOTPRINT AT WAIST HEIGHT: a path narrower than about 1.5 m with one of these beside it is a fitting people walk into.
