Domus GTA-221 - 157cm Cast Post

The Domus GTA-221 is a cast post — a bare column for mounting a post-top lantern, 157 cm tall. Five powder-coated colours.

⛔ This item is made to order

Up to 10 business days for production before it ships. ⚠ Order the post, the lantern and any adaptor together — the powder coat is applied to order.

⛔ The title is the entire specification

• ⛔ This listing records one field: the warranty. No height, no base dimensions, no spigot diameter, nothing.
• ⚠ So the 157 cm exists only in the title, and it is the only measurement you have — ⚠ and on a post that is set in concrete, we would rather confirm it than have you work from a title.
• ⭐ There is a specific reason to check. The 95 cm cast post is the only one of the three that records a height in a field, and its field and its title disagree by 80 mm. ⭐ So a title height in this family has already been shown to be unreliable once.
• ⭐ Ask us for the finished above-ground height before ordering. It is a short question, and it cannot be corrected once the concrete is poured.

⭐ 1.57 m is the useful height for a post-top lantern

• ⭐ At just over a metre and a half, a lantern on this post sits at or just above eye level — high enough to light the ground properly, low enough not to dominate a garden.
• ⭐ It is the middle of three cast posts: 95 cm for beds and borders, 157 cm for paths and general garden use, 195 cm for drives and entrances.
• ⚠ Remember the lantern adds its own height. A Vienna post top is 490 mm tall, so this post plus that lantern is around 2 m to the top — ⭐ which is worth working out before you choose the post, not after.

⭐ It is a post, not a light — and you may need an adaptor

• ⚠ No lantern is included.
• ⭐ Post-top spigots are not standardised, so a lantern and a column do not necessarily meet. ⭐ Three adaptors are made — 43 mm, 50 mm and 60 mm (GTA-140, 141 and 142).
• ⛔ This listing records no spigot diameter, so which adaptor — if any — is needed cannot be determined from the page. ⭐ Nothing in the catalogue connects the posts, the lanterns and the adaptors to one another.
• ⭐ Tell us the lantern you want and we will specify the whole assembly and confirm it with Domus before anything is made.

⛔ And no footing or cable detail

⛔ No footing depth, base plate size, fixing pattern, wind rating or cable entry detail is recorded. ⚠ A cast post takes its cable up inside, and how it enters at the base decides what your electrician has to do. ⭐ Settle both with us before the concreter is on site.

Where it works

• Paths, drives and general garden use — ⭐ the middle of the three heights.
• Under a Domus post-top lantern, matched in colour.
• Period and traditional properties, where a cast column suits.
• ⚠ Not without confirming the finished height and the spigot with us first.

Specifying it

Beige, Black, Burgundy, Green or White. ⚠ Warranty 1 year. ⛔ Made to order — allow up to 10 business days. ⛔ This listing records ONE field, the warranty — the 157 cm exists only in the title, and the 95 cm post in this family has already been shown to disagree with its own title by 80 mm. Ask us to confirm the finished height. ⚠ No lantern is included, and no spigot diameter is recorded — three adaptors exist (43, 50 and 60 mm). ⛔ No footing, cable entry or wind rating.
