Add a Touch of Flair to the Outdoors with Gooseneck Outdoor Wall Lights
The first impression of a home or commercial space is often the outdoors. Finding an adequate outdoor light also provides additional illumination, security and safety to the spaces outside the home such as walkways, driveways and the yard. Available in a variety of sizes, styles and colors, outdoor gooseneck lights combine a classic look with a touch of flair and style.
When buying a new outdoor gooseneck light, consider matching the style with the décor of the home. Outdoor sconces mounted near a front door can match with the gooseneck lights or lights in the yard, creating a sense of cohesion.
How to Choose Gooseneck Lights
Similar to outdoor barn lights, the perfect gooseneck light for an exterior space starts with the style and overall appearance of the fixture. A gooseneck light contains an elongated and curving stem that brings the shade of the fixture away from the fixture. This creates a certain style but also allows the outdoor gooseneck light to shine away from the surface of the building and instead beyond the home, where the light may be needed more. When it comes to fixtures that will be installed outdoors, the top consideration is the UL rating. UL Listed Damp fixtures are safe to install in places that are not in direct contact with moisture, such as screened porches, enclosed patios or entryways with awnings. For open areas where contact with rain or snow is likely, choose gooseneck lights that are UL Listed Wet.
