Glam outdoor wall lights bring polished metals, crystal-clear glass panels, and ornate metalwork to exterior applications. These fixtures prove that outdoor lighting does not need to sacrifice decorative ambition. A pair of chrome and crystal outdoor sconces flanking a front door creates an immediate impression of luxury and attention to detail that extends your interior aesthetic to the exterior of the home.

All glam outdoor wall lights carry wet or damp UL ratings for weather resistance. Polished nickel and chrome finishes hold up well in most climates. Gold and aged brass finishes suit warmer, drier environments. Always check the fixture's IP rating and location rating before installing in exposed locations subject to rain and wind.

We carry glam outdoor wall lights from Arteriors, Corbett Lighting, Fine Art Handcrafted Lighting, and Crystorama. Free shipping on orders over $199 across Canada.

Buying guide

How to Choose Glam Outdoor Wall Lights

Scale, mounting height, and weather rating are the three decisions that determine how well glam outdoor wall lights perform on your facade.

Scale to the door

For fixtures flanking a front door, each sconce should measure roughly one-quarter to one-third the door height. For a standard 80-inch door, look for fixtures 20 to 27 inches tall. A fixture that is too small disappears against the facade. A fixture that is too large overwhelms the door opening.

Mount at the right height

Mount outdoor wall lights at 66 inches from the floor to center for front door flanking applications. This positions the light at eye level when approaching the door. For garage and large facade applications, 78 to 84 inches provides better coverage without glare.

Check the weather rating

All outdoor fixtures must carry a wet or damp location UL listing. For fully exposed positions subject to rain and wind, wet-rated fixtures are required. For covered porches and protected alcoves, damp-rated fixtures are sufficient. Check the product listing before purchasing.

Match the finish to the facade

Polished chrome and nickel fixtures suit contemporary homes with white or grey facades. Gold and aged brass fixtures complement traditional brick, stone, and warmer-toned exteriors. Match your outdoor fixtures to the dominant metal in your door hardware for a coordinated entry.

Common questions

Glam Outdoor Wall Lights FAQ

What defines glam outdoor wall lights?

Glam outdoor wall lights use polished chrome, crystal-clear glass panels, ornate gold frames, and jewel-like hardware to extend the glam aesthetic to exterior spaces. They are distinguished from standard outdoor fixtures by their use of reflective and decorative materials typically associated with formal interior lighting.

Do glam outdoor wall lights need to be waterproof?

All outdoor fixtures must carry at least a damp location UL listing. For fixtures in fully exposed positions subject to direct rain, wet-rated fixtures are required. For covered porch and protected alcove applications, damp-rated fixtures are sufficient. Always check the product listing for location rating.

What finish holds up best outdoors?

Polished chrome and dark bronze finishes offer the most durability in most outdoor climates. Gold and aged brass finishes suit drier climates best and may show wear faster in humid or coastal environments. Look for fixtures with UV-resistant powder-coat or marine-grade plating in exposed applications.

How do I size glam outdoor wall lights for my front door?

Each flanking sconce should measure roughly one-quarter to one-third the door height. For a standard 80-inch door, look for fixtures 20 to 27 inches tall. Mount them at 66 inches from the floor to center, positioned 6 to 8 inches to either side of the door frame.

Can glam outdoor wall lights be used on a covered porch?

Yes. Covered porches require a minimum damp location rating, which most outdoor fixtures carry. For open porches exposed to rain on windy days, wet-rated fixtures provide an extra margin of safety. Glam outdoor fixtures with seeded or clear glass perform well in covered porch applications.

Do you offer free shipping on outdoor wall lights?

Yes, we offer free standard shipping across Canada on all orders over $199, including outdoor wall lights. Larger fixtures may ship via freight carrier.
