Driveway Post Lights – Radiata Pine Bollard Lights – Solid Timber – 12v LED
This wooden post light is manufactured using solid Radiata Pine timber. The timber is sustainably sourced and used due to its low split properties and no feathering. These driveway post lights are fully treated before being sold. They are sanded down to give a smooth, top quality finish and penetrated by the latest generation wood preservative, in accordance with BS8417 to meet Use Class 4. Sourced and CNC machined by a top FSC certified timber supplier, these Radiata Pine Posts are suitable for most climates, whether the environment is dry or humid.
The Radiata is designed so that 300mm – 400mm of the wooden post light can be securely mounted in-ground. The light is emitted from a slatted style brass fitting in a charming rustic bronze finish. The stylish light houses 1 x LED G4 bulb (bulbs to be purchased separately). The expected life of the wooden post light is up to 15 years with a 5 year Guarantee as standard.
As a natural material, cracking in wood is common. Usually this will have no effect on the strength of the post and varies based on the moisture content of the wood. The preservative treatment helps to increase the moisture level, thus reducing cracking. The best time of year for external installs of wooden posts is between October and March. This is due to the sun being less intense, reducing the risk of rapid drying. Not recommended to install in waterlogged areas as this will have a negative effect on the wood.
As a natural material, Radiata products will possess structural features, such as knots, splits and twists.Â
