New Idolite Outdoor Lighting for Autumn 2026
The Autumn 2026 Idolite collection features 18 new outdoor lighting options, covering a wide range of exterior applications and design styles. The collection includes traditional lantern-inspired fittings alongside modern LED wall lights, giving you plenty of choice when creating an outdoor lighting scheme.
From the classic detailing of the Butterton, Eccleshall and Shrewsbury collections to the contemporary styling of Orchid and Hume, Idolite offers outdoor lighting for a variety of architectural styles.
Idolite Outdoor Wall Lights
Create a welcoming entrance with an Idolite outdoor wall light. The collection includes traditional exterior wall lanterns, flush wall lights and contemporary LED wall fittings.
Several of the lantern designs feature clear, seeded or frosted glass, allowing the light source to remain visible while adding texture and character to the fitting. The Butterton range, for example, includes rectangular flush wall lanterns with seeded clear glass, while the Eccleshall range features tapered square lantern designs with clear glass.
For contemporary properties, the Idolite Orchid range provides modern up and down LED wall lighting in black and gold or anthracite and silver finishes, with a 3000K warm white colour temperature and IP65 protection.
Traditional Outdoor Lanterns
If you're looking for more traditional exterior lighting, the Idolite collection includes several lantern-style designs.
The Shrewsbury collection combines a black frame with clear seeded glass and a distinctive downward-facing design. Wall, pendant and post light options are available, with small, medium and large wall light sizes providing flexibility for different exterior spaces.
The Nantwich range offers another traditional option, featuring a curved black frame, clear cylindrical glass and downward-facing styling. The collection includes wall lanterns, pendant lights and post lights.
Contemporary LED Outdoor Wall Lights
For a more modern exterior, the Idolite Orchid outdoor LED wall lights combine a minimalist profile with directional up and down illumination.
Available in:
- Black and gold
- Anthracite and silver
- Small, medium and large sizes
- 3000K warm white LED
- IP65-rated construction
The up and down light effect can create an attractive architectural wash across rendered walls, brickwork and other exterior surfaces.
Outdoor Post & Garden Lights
Extend your exterior lighting scheme beyond the walls of your property with Idolite outdoor post lights.
The collection includes post lighting from several ranges, including Lichfield, Nantwich, Northwich and Shrewsbury. These can be used along driveways, beside paths, around lawns and throughout landscaped gardens to create a coordinated lighting scheme.
The Lichfield post light features an oil-rubbed brass finish and clear lined glass, while the Nantwich, Northwich and Shrewsbury options provide black finishes with distinctive glass designs.
Outdoor Pendant Lights
Outdoor pendant lighting is an effective way to add character to porches, covered entrances, verandas and outdoor entertaining areas.
The new Idolite collection includes exterior pendant designs from the Lichfield, Nantwich, Newport, Northwich and Shrewsbury ranges. Styles range from traditional lantern-inspired fittings to black wire-cage designs and contemporary curved-frame options.
The Newport exterior pendant, for example, features a black wire cage surrounding frosted glass, while the Northwich range combines a curved ribbed frame with seeded clear glass.
Seeded, Clear & Frosted Glass
Glass is an important part of the Idolite outdoor lighting aesthetic. Different collections use different glass treatments to create distinctive effects.
Seeded clear glass provides a textured appearance that works particularly well with traditional lantern designs, while clear glass offers a cleaner look and allows more of the decorative lamp to be seen.
The Newport collection uses frosted glass within a black wire-cage frame, creating a softer appearance that suits contemporary and industrial-inspired exteriors.
Black, Anthracite, Gold & Brass Finishes
The new Idolite outdoor collection offers a broad selection of finishes, making it easier to coordinate your exterior lighting with doors, windows, ironmongery and other architectural details.
Popular finishes include:
- Black
- Anthracite
- Black and gold
- Anthracite and silver
- Oil-rubbed brass
The combination of darker architectural finishes with contrasting metallic details is particularly suited to contemporary exterior lighting schemes.
IP54 & IP65 Outdoor Lighting
The collection includes fittings with IP54 and IP65 ratings, depending on the individual design. The IP rating indicates the level of protection provided against dust and water, so it's important to check the specification of each individual fitting when selecting outdoor lighting for a particular location.
The Idolite Orchid LED wall lights are rated IP65, while many of the lantern, pendant and post light designs in the new collection are IP54 rated.
Create a Coordinated Exterior Lighting Scheme
One of the advantages of the Idolite range is the ability to coordinate different types of exterior lighting from complementary collections.
For example, you could combine:
- Outdoor wall lights around your front door
- Matching post lights along a driveway
- Pendant lighting beneath a porch
- Garden lighting around planting areas
- Up and down LED lights to highlight architectural features
Using fittings from the same collection can create a cohesive look throughout your exterior, while choosing different Idolite designs allows you to tailor the lighting to each area.
