A durable 1-light oval bulkhead outdoor wall light in semi gloss white with clear glass diffuser, designed for wet locations like covered patios and entryways.
This Nuvo bulkhead light features a die-cast aluminum construction with a semi gloss white finish and a clear glass diffuser. Its classic oval shape and sturdy build make it a reliable choice for exterior wall mounting where weather resistance is needed. The fixture accommodates one A19 medium-base bulb up to 60 watts (not included).
Best for
- Covered patios, porches, and entryways where wet-rated lighting is required
- Outdoor wall sconce applications near doors or garage entries
- Homes with traditional or coastal exterior styling
- Replacing old bulkhead lights with a durable, low-maintenance option
Not ideal for
- Indoor-only spaces where a decorative sconce is preferred
- Areas needing bright task lighting - this is a 60W max accent/ambient fixture
- Very large exterior walls where a larger fixture would be more proportionate
How bright is it?
With a maximum 60W incandescent bulb, expect approximately 800 lumens - similar to a standard household lamp. This is suitable for accent or ambient outdoor lighting, not as a primary security light. LED equivalent bulbs can achieve similar brightness at lower wattage.
Light color and feel
Using a standard 2700K-3000K warm white bulb, the light will have a soft, inviting glow. The clear glass diffuser provides a slightly brighter, more direct light than frosted glass. The fixture is dimmable if a dimmable bulb is used and a compatible dimmer is installed.
Sizing and fit
The fixture measures 9 inches wide by 11 inches high with a 6-inch projection from the wall. It is designed for wall mounting and is rated for wet locations, making it suitable for covered outdoor areas. The backplate is approximately 5 inches in diameter.
