Outdoor wall lights are a great way to draw attention to the favourite parts of your outdoor space, or add extra light exactly where you need it, by using an exterior wall light as a porch light.

At B&Q we know that you need to find an external wall light that fits both your needs and your aesthetics, which is why you’ll find a wide range of stylish but functional options. Outdoor sensor wall lights turn on automatically when they detect movement, meaning you can easily move around your garden after dark without fear of tripping up. They also have the added benefit of increasing security, by deterring intruders.

We also have plenty of energy efficient options available, which are better for your wallet and the environment. Solar wall lights work by storing and using energy from the sun, and have the added benefit of not needing any wires, so you have endless options on where you place them. If you want to be confident your outdoor wall lighting will work whenever you need them too, outdoor LED wall lights are a great energy efficient option.

How many lumens for outdoor wall light?

The number of lumens needed for outdoor wall lights depends on various factors, such as the size of the area you wish to illuminate and your desired brightness level. For ambient lighting or decorative purposes, a lower lumen output of up to 700 lumens would be ideal. Lower lumen outputs create a soft and subtle glow, suitable for creating a cosy and inviting atmosphere. If you’d prefer brighter wall lighting for enhanced security and visibility, consider lights with an output of 800 lumens or more. High-lumen outputs provide more illumination to where it's needed, ensuring better outdoor visibility. Of course, your specific lighting needs may vary depending on factors like the size of the outdoor space, the height and placement of the light fixtures, and your personal preferences.
