TURIN LARGE WALL BRACKET DOWN B22

The Domus TURIN LARGE wall bracket, downward is a wall-mounted exterior lantern — 650 mm high, 350 mm wide, B22, 240 V, IP43, in five colours.

⭐ Straight arm, downward — the quietest option in the range

• ⭐ The TURIN LARGE offers three downward brackets: this straight arm, a C-arm and (in the wider family) an S-arm.
• ⭐⭐ THE STRAIGHT ARM IS THE PLAINEST OF THEM, and that is the reason to choose it. ⭐ A curved arm reads as a period gesture; a straight one reads as functional and lets the lantern be the only decorative element.
• ⭐ WHICH SUITS A HOUSE THAT IS NOT A HERITAGE REPRODUCTION — ⭐ a modern facade with a traditional lantern, where a curved arm would be one gesture too many.
• ⭐ IT ALSO PROJECTS LESS THAN THE CURVED VERSIONS. ⭐ At 350 mm wide it is more compact than the C-arm's 370, and a straight arm sweeps no wider than it measures where a curve reaches its widest partway out.

⭐ Downward is the considerate and the durable choice

• ⭐ The lantern hangs beneath the arm and faces down. ⭐⭐ NOTHING GOES INTO THE SKY, the lantern body shades the source from anyone looking at the wall from a distance, and light lands on the ground where it is useful.
• ⭐ ON A BOUNDARY WALL, A SHARED DRIVEWAY OR A DENSE STREET THAT MATTERS MORE THAN THE EFFECT. ⭐ An upward lantern on a party wall is a complaint waiting to happen.
• ⭐⭐ AND IT LASTS LONGER IN EXPOSURE. ⭐ The lantern's own body sheds water away from the opening rather than collecting it, which is why a downward bracket outlives an upward one on any elevation that takes weather.
• ⚠ THE COUNTER-ARGUMENT IS APPEARANCE. ⭐ The upward versions read as the classic coach-lamp posture. ⭐ Choose on the position rather than the picture.

⚠ Mounting height and consistency

• ⭐ It projects to 350 mm and hangs 650 mm below the fixing. ⚠ Enough to catch a door, a gate, or someone carrying something past.
• ⭐ A USEFUL MOUNTING HEIGHT IS AROUND 2.1–2.3 m to the fixing, putting the lantern bottom near 1.45–1.65 m — ⭐ above head height and below the point where light stops being useful on the ground. ⚠ The 650 mm drop is more than the standard TURIN bracket's, so the fixing has to go higher to get the same clearance.
• ⚠ MOUNT THEM AT A CONSISTENT HEIGHT ALONG A FACADE. ⭐ Uneven brackets are conspicuous at night in a way they never are on a drawing, because each throws a visible pool and the pools do not line up.
• ⭐ PICK ONE ARM TYPE FOR THE WHOLE PROPERTY. ⚠ Straight and curved arms side by side on a facade look unresolved.

⭐ IP43 and the fixing face

⭐ IP43 covers spraying water to 60° from vertical — ⛔ not driving rain, hosing or sprinklers. ⭐ The 4 excludes wires and most insects, which is what decides whether a lantern fills with them. ⭐⭐ ON A WALL FITTING THE VULNERABLE POINT IS THE FIXING FACE, where the bracket meets the wall and water can sit — ⭐ inspected last, corrodes first. ⭐ Seal it properly at installation. ⭐ Mount under an eave or off the weather side if you can; the downward orientation helps but does not make it a driving-rain fitting.

⭐ B22, no lamp, and opal at a door

⭐ The lamp is not included. ⭐⭐ ON A WALL BRACKET THE LANTERN IS AT OR NEAR EYE LEVEL FOR ANYONE APPROACHING THE DOOR, so a clear or filament lamp is a bright point directly in their view. ⭐ An opal B22 fills the lantern and reads as a glowing object. ⭐ On the Large lantern that matters more, because a small bright source inside a big diffuser looks wrong — use a globe shape sized to fill it. ⭐ Warm rather than cool.

⚠ "Large" is a parallel range

⭐ Bracket reference GT-481; the LARGE offers only one complete post height. ⭐ Decide the largest arrangement the property needs first, then pick the family. ⚠ Do not mix the two sizes.

⛔ Made to order

Allow up to 10 business days for production. ⭐ Five colours applied to order. ⚠ Order a facade's worth together.

✅ What is published

Where it works

• ⭐⭐ Modern facades with a traditional lantern — ⭐ the plainest arm.
• ⭐ Boundary and party walls — ⭐ nothing upward.
• ⭐ Exposed elevations — ⭐ the body sheds water.
• ⚠ Not near a door swing — ⭐ 350 mm projects.
• ⚠ Not mixed with curved arms — ⭐ pick one type.

Specifying it

Exterior wall bracket, straight arm, downward, LARGE lantern. 650 mm high, 350 mm wide. B22, lamp not included. 220–240 V. IP43. Die-cast aluminium with moulded acrylic lens. Five colours. Bracket reference GT-481. Made to order, up to 10 business days. 1-year warranty. ⭐ THE STRAIGHT ARM IS THE PLAINEST OF THE THREE LARGE DOWNWARD BRACKETS, AND THAT IS THE REASON TO CHOOSE IT. A curved arm reads as a period gesture; a straight one reads as functional and lets the lantern be the only decorative element — which suits a modern facade with a traditional lantern, where a curved arm would be one gesture too many. It also projects less and sweeps no wider than it measures, where a curve reaches its widest partway out. ⭐⭐ AND DOWNWARD IS BOTH THE CONSIDERATE AND THE DURABLE CHOICE: nothing goes into the sky, and the lantern's own body sheds water away from the opening, which is why a downward bracket outlives an upward one on any elevation that takes weather.
