DOMUS TURIN 2LT 2.47M POSTLIGHT B22

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

⭐ The tallest twin, and the height changes what it is for

• ⭐ The twin-head TURIN comes at 1.49 m, 2.11 m and 2.47 m. ⭐ This is the tallest.
• ⭐⭐ AT 2,440 mm BOTH LANTERNS SIT WELL ABOVE HEAD HEIGHT, which turns the post from a garden element into a piece of street furniture. ⭐ It is seen over a fence or hedge from the road, and it lights a wider area because the sources are further from the ground.
• ⭐ THAT SUITS A DRIVEWAY ENTRANCE OR A FRONTAGE where the post is part of the address. ⚠ It is the wrong height beside a path in a courtyard, where a 1.49 m twin does the same job without dominating.
• ⭐ LIGHT FALLS OFF WITH THE SQUARE OF DISTANCE, so the taller post gives broader, softer coverage and less intensity directly beneath. ⭐ For a driveway you walk and drive along, broader is better and fewer posts are needed.

⭐ 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 on a driveway that often means cutting and reinstating paving. ⭐ Two heads on one post halves all of it, and halves the obstructions on a narrow verge.
• ⚠ THE TRADE IS SPACING. ⭐ The two heads are about 680 mm apart; two separate posts can be metres apart. ⭐ So a twin suits a focal point rather than an even run.
• ⚠ AND IT CATCHES MORE WIND THAN A SINGLE, at a greater height. ⭐ Two lanterns on arms at 2.44 m is a meaningful sail area, so the footing matters more here than on any other arrangement in the range except the triple.

⭐ Its dimensions match the 3LT, and that is correct

⭐ The triple-head post at the same 2.47 m publishes identical width and height. ⚠ Identical figures on two SKUs normally reads as a duplication error. ⭐⭐ HERE IT IS RIGHT: the family prose lists 2.47 m under both twin and triple, so the two share a post and an arm span and the triple simply adds a lantern on top of the column. ⭐ Worth knowing if you are comparing the two listings and wondering which figure to trust.

⭐ Two lamps, and they must match

⭐ Two lamps are needed and neither is included. ⭐ The lanterns are 680 mm apart and seen together, so any difference in colour temperature or brightness is unmissable. ⭐ Buy them as a pair from one batch and replace them as a pair. ⭐ Opal rather than clear — at this height a clear lamp is a bright point visible from the road and from neighbouring properties, where an opal lamp fills the lantern and reads as a glowing object. ⭐ Warm rather than cool: on a frontage post, cool white reads as institutional.

⭐ IP43, and what exposure remains at height

• ⭐ IP43 covers spraying water to 60° from vertical. ⛔ Not driving rain, hosing or sprinklers.
• ⭐ AT 2.44 m THE LANTERNS ARE WELL ABOVE ANY SPRINKLER THROW and the heads shelter their own openings — ⭐ so the practical exposure is wind-driven rain.
• ⚠ AND A TALL POST IS MORE EXPOSED TO IT, because there is less around it to break the wind. ⭐ On an open frontage or a coastal site, expect water to find the lanterns eventually and check the seals as part of any maintenance.
• ⚠ Two lanterns means two sets of seals and lampholders — ⭐ check both, not only the one that has stopped working.

⭐ One casting, seven arrangements

⭐ Wall bracket, pillar mount, post top, pendant, and single, twin or triple-head posts. ⭐⭐ THE ARGUMENT FOR THE RANGE IS COHERENCE ACROSS A PROPERTY: tall twins at the entrance, singles along the drive and a wall bracket at the door read as one scheme because they are literally the same lantern. ⭐ Specifying three different products for three positions is the common alternative and it always shows.

✅ What is published

Where it works

• ⭐⭐ Driveway entrances and frontages — ⭐ street-furniture scale.
• ⭐ Where groundwork is expensive — ⭐ one footing, two lights.
• ⭐ With singles along the drive — ⭐ one scheme.
• ⚠ Not in a courtyard — ⭐ take the 1.49 m twin.
• ⚠ Not without allowing for wind load — ⭐ the footing matters.
