    Electro Tiberius Flat (ETF) is a premium, zero gloss/flat powder-coated finish designed to replicate precious metals without the expense associated with. We've never called Tiberius "Brass" nor "Gold" as the colour is better characterised as a "Bronze/Green Patina" however that's exactly what customers call it. Our Tiberius Flat finish looks amazing in the right surrounds (Got Monument? Excellent Choice!) however Tiberius will simply not match your kitchen taps, brass handles, or anything you've already got installed due to its unique colour mixture.

    3. Don't buy Tiberius if you want to match something else

  • Atomic Cast Guard & Glass

    Cast Guard Style

    [CGG] Standard Cast Guard

    Our Standard Cast Guard is made from die-cast aluminium, threaded at the base, for affixing to the bottom of our shades & Atomic family of products. Designed to withstand any decent amount of shock to protect the glass and globe within. 90% of customers choose this guard.

    [TGG] Heavy Duty Cast Guard

    Our Thick or 'Heavy Duty' Cast guard is designed to be both idiot and vandal proof. Made using the same die as our Standard, this bulkier cousin is ideal for pubs, clubs, restaurants, and any place you might find flying beer bottles. Ultimately the strongest of our cast guard, it also permits the least amount of light out.

    [WGG] Nautical Wire Guard

    If the ship has sailed, and you want to remember the experience - our Nautical Wire Guard is just for you. Made from steel wire, this guard is designed to allow the most light output while providing some protection. Best used where beach balls and tennis balls are frequently used.

    Glass Options

    [CLR] Clear Glass

    Our simple Clear Glass is designed for the maximum amount of light output you can possibly obtain from any globe. Made from thick glass, light dispersal is rated to a minimum. If you'd like to have an additional styling benefit consider using a vintage styled LED bulb or the typical incandescent bulbs for ambient lighting.

    [FRS] Frosted Glass

    Our frosted glass is manufactured right here at Barn Light. Using our handy sandblaster, the inside of the glass is blasted with a fine garnet media to produce a halo effect around the shade. Best used if a higher wattage bulb is required and you need to hide the hideous thing.

    [RIB] Ribbed / Prismatic Glass

    The "prettiest" and most expensive. Hand-blown by master glassblowers in New Jersey, USA, these prismatic or simply 'ribbed' pieces of glass are designed for both ambiance and lighting brilliance. Enjoy the shadows dancing upon your wall while dining and entertaining.

    Light Source Options

    Screw Lampholder or LED

    Ceramic E27 or Integrated LED

    Our Standard Ceramic E27 (Edison 27mm) Lampholder that suits "screw in bulbs". You can find your preferred 27mm ES bulbs at your local hardware store. Maximum Wattage is 60W where Glass is installed, 100W without. Yes, you can use LED bulbs, Smart Bulbs, and frankly all that will fit (70mm or less in diameter)

    We call this 'dumb wired' since there is nothing between the lamp holder and the supply wires. Input Voltage is [email protected]

    High Performance Integrated LED

    *** No warranty applies for LED units installed without Glass! ***

    Our "designed for purpose" Atomic LED lighting uses a integrated LED fitting courtesy of the Research & Design Efforts of Barn Light USA & CREE Lighting USA. We have engineered a 42V Dimmable Driver, custom engineered Heatsink, coupled with a high performance CXA2520 LED Module to provide an unparalleled lighting solution to a variety of environments. Lumen Output is 1600lm.

    All fittings are provided with a purposely designed atomic enclosure for wall mounting, flexible, and fixed stem installations. The installation method to install these units is the same as our standard atomic fittings.
    Input Voltage is [email protected] to the driver, Output Voltage is 42V. LED draw varies, please refer to our Fully Integrated LED Modules page for further information.

    Colour Temperature (Kelvin)

    2700K - Incandescent Yellow / Intimate, Cozy, Personal

    2700K refers to the colour spectrum of light that we commonly associate with candle light, home, sunset, and the soft dancing of flames of the fireplace. Most Australians will have grown up under the warmth and homely atmosphere we can associate with incandescent lighting.

    For the Consumer: This is the light that you are probably most familiar with seeing around the home. The warm glow is reminiscent of the sunset or a flame. Common applications area: Bedrooms & Living Rooms

    For the Designer: Those designing for restaurant & hotels are encouraged to use warm lighting as for the most part, restaurants and hoteliers want to create an inviting and intimate environment. This is why designers often choose warmer light sources with dimmers. Take notice that you can always adjust the lighting throughout the evening to encourage customers to take the time to relax.

    4000K - Cool White / Clinical, Warehousing, Stadiums

    4000K - When you require precision, clarity, and a clean environment. When you need precision and the ability to see your subject clearly, cool white lighting is ideal. These color temperatures are going to be 4000K or higher for specialist applications.

    For the Consumer / Mechanic: If you are using your garage as a work space, and are tired of trying to find that 13mm socket that's fell in the entire for n'th time today, you will want to use clean crisp lighting. This will bring clarity to any project you are working on and create the safest working environment.

    For the Designer: Compared to a clothing retail (3500K) store, supermarkets typically opt for a slightly higher color temperature. This creates a better environment for examining foods and also makes the colours pop to make marketing packaging more appealing.

    Note for the Designers: We do NOT recommend colour temperatures over 3500K for retail environments as a these light sources are more commonly "too blue" and can make customers look unhealthy. This leads them to leave the store without making a purchase.. and looking for sunglasses. 4000K~5000K has specialist lighting applications, namely medical, warehousing, and sports stadiums. If you require a lighting specification to suit, contact us!

Recent History

These industrial cage wall lights are known for this industrial nautical styling normally associated with ship building and salvaging. A large number of authentic brass units arrived in Australia over the past five years via Indian ship breakers, these units were typically available at very high prices and in varying styles. Although unique, these styles unfortunately were only supplied in small quantities leading to a large influx of one-off units. While the quality of these products will more often exceed the quality of comparable units, the unfortunate effect of having an “unbalanced” styling made houses appear to resemble the local opportunity shop more than the home they leave work for.

Our Atomic Sconces are manufactured here in Victoria, Australia for Australian conditions. We manufacture these units to be rugged enough for both indoor and outdoor use (IP55). If you desire an industrial, rustic, and/or nautical styling to your abode, or a combination of these three, our Atomic Industrial Guard Sconce is for you. Our rustic wall sconces can be used anywhere you desire, such as your garage, bathroom, or backyard using a standard duty, heavy duty, or nautical wire cage to protect the glass from damage.

Original Design

Our Atomic Industrial design has changed little since developed during the US Space Race that sparked the Atomic Age and that of the needs for vapor proof outdoor caged lights. While one might consider this a classic design, the combined quality and durability makes for an Industrial Style – Products that are built to last. Constructed from solid die cast aluminium from our own overseas facilities, these industrial wall lights were developed to be used in conjunction in various complimenting styles – Goosenecks, Pendants, Stems, Sconces.

Dependable and Modular – Install the simple Atomic Industrial or choose from the various adapted ranges we have to offer below; located at the bottom of this page.

There are imitations, there will be cheaper products, there won’t be a higher quality product than the one you buy here from Barn Light Australia. If you can’t find a supplier with a few “other” similar styles, you know what you see here.

Things you should know.

Unlike cheap imitations, The Atomic Industrial Cast Guard has the capability of being easily threaded into the base for easy access to the glass and bulb. If you chose to install without the supplied grub screws, you can change the light-bulb without tools. If you’d prefer a long lasting LED light source, we recommend our Atomic LED option. Sold at our cost price for a better environment.

Barn Light Australia does not resell Davey Lighting (UK) products, nor do we supply Fat Shack Vintage (FSV) products.
We don’t resell our lighting anywhere via distributors and so all products sold are unique to us – If you find anyone calling their products “Barn Lights” you know where they got the name from.

Frequently Answered Questions

The Backing Plate.

Our Hand Finished Aluminium Wall Sconce Plate [SCO-WBP2 / SCO-WBP3] is 160mm in diameter and projects 48mm off the wall.

The Sconce / Gooseneck / Support Arms.

Our Sconce Arms are manufactured from Brass-plated, clear coated, rolled steel. We prepare the surfaces and then powdercoat a top-coat of your selected colour. Whilst we use aluminium for every other facet of our manufacturing process, the structural integrity of steel is required for these wall light models.

For “Three Hole” models, our supplied “Barn Light Electric” stamped connector is manufactured in the USA from die-cast aluminium.

Wall Fixing Bracket

We provide a steel “Cross Bar” with M10x1.0mm threaded in the centre. This fixing permits customers with different mounting surfaces (and angles, like weatherboards) to “reblock” the backing without needing to modify the product to suit. The ability to install the crossbar over two surfaces makes these installation advantageous for non-recessed electrical terminations.

To affix this bracket to your structure using any of your typical fixings (think Timber Screws/Concrete/Masonry Fixings), then affix your Sconce Backing Plate using our supplied 75mm Threaded Nipple A supplied, colour-matched decorative Brass Locknut finishes your new design

Waterproofing Gasket 

We supply an Australian Made, closed cell (waterproofing) gasket designed to fit between your Wall Sconce Plate & Mounting Surface. The gasket is 5mm thick, 165mm in diameter (5mm larger than the sconce plate) to assist in positioning with a 30mm centre hole for electrical to be terminated within the sconce plate.

Recyclable Packaging?

Yup, everything is then packaged into a brown or white paper bag and marked with your colour, size, installation instructions, and any applicable warnings

All Barn Light Lighting takes a common “E27 / Edison Screw / ES / Screw Bulb” that you’ll find at your local hardware, or grocery store.

Yup – We use a ceramic Edison Screw (E27) Lampholder.

Whats.. Better? Ceramic?!

Our ceramic/porcelain Lampholders are simply designed to take as much heat as possible (Yes, We build better lighting than our competitors) without effecting the mounting / electrical cabling. Our outdoor wall lighting is based on decades old, reliable, vintage engineering. 

Standard Outdoor Barn Lights – 100W

If you select the “default” arrangement which is simply marked as “Edison Screw Lampholder (No Bulbs Supplied)” – You’ll have the ability to install a 100W Bulb.

Atomic Barn Lighting – 60W

If you select an Accessory such as “Atomic Cast Guard” – When installed with Glass, you’ll be limited to 60W as the sealed glass enclosure becomes a literal heat-trap. You can opt to NOT install the glass at your discretion however Atomic “Fully Integrated LEDs” required the installation of glass at all times.

What you *may* want to know if considering purchasing elsewhere 

Our competitors will be supplying you with a thermo-plastic lamp-holder which becomes brittle & cracks over time, with a maximum of 60W being typical (also.. not organic / not recyclable). Need to light up an area? Nope – You’ll now need to install spotlights to find your car in Winter.

Smart Bulbs – When you need a kaleidoscope of colour.

Yes, our lighting is fully compatible however we suggest that you try one bulb in the most furthest away location from your wireless signal. We manufacture with Aluminium, and you’ll likely install your new Barn Lights onto Brick or Concrete walls. Neither of these materials are ideal for wireless signals to penetrate through so tread cautiously.

Yup – We hear you, this is sounding too good to be true for a lighting company.

Frankly (the short answer is “Yes”), we could write a page about this – so we did..  ->  Are Barn Lights Dimmable?

Lets talk about your space.

Older homes typically have newer exterior decking which drops the installation point from 1.8m to any deviation, causing issues obtaining replacement lighting, further “Coach Lamps” and similar styles (wall sconces typically push light up!) are usually installed lower than desired once lighting styles are changed.

We recommend measuring the area to ensure you’ve got enough space for the (over-) arching steel arms AND enough room for a drop from the mounting point.

If you’ve got the space for both, our “Two Arm” sconces like The Original, Astro, Old Dixie Wall Lights. A unique benefit for these units is the addition of optional Atomic Cast Guards which increase the IP Rating to IP55.

Our Single Arm Sconces are designed with you in mind.

You’ll want Wall Lights like our The Universal, Austin, Cafe for these areas. More often that we expect, these sconces are installed over kitchen windows internally over the sink, pantry, and even walkways.

If you’d rather a larger light – You’d likely prefer our range of Gooseneck Wall Lights are this is what  Gooseneck Barn Lights were originally manufactured for. 

If you need that petite nature
