IP67, walkable to 500kg, twilight sensor — three specs that matter for in-ground installation
An in-ground light is a different category from a surface-mounted outdoor fitting. It sits flush with the ground, which means it must withstand foot traffic, vehicle loads, water ingress from above and below, and soil contact — conditions that would destroy a standard outdoor fitting within a season. IP67 is the relevant rating here: it means the fixture is fully dustproof and can withstand immersion in water up to 1 metre for 30 minutes, which covers poolside installation, heavy rain, and surface water pooling. The 500kg load capacity means the fixture can be installed in a driveway or parking area without risk of cracking under vehicle weight — a specification that most decorative in-ground lights do not meet. The twilight sensor removes the need for a manual switch or timer: the light activates automatically at dusk and switches off at dawn, which is the correct behaviour for a path or driveway marker that needs to be on whenever it is dark outside.
At 3.6–7.5lm, the output is orientation and accent lighting — it marks a path, defines an edge, or creates a visual rhythm across a surface. It is not a floodlight or a security light. For driveways, space the fixtures at 1–1.5m intervals for a consistent line; for garden paths, 0.8–1m intervals give a clear visual guide without over-lighting. Waterproof silicone sealant is recommended at the edges during installation for maximum ingress protection — not included.

Common questions
How do I install this — does it need an electrician?
+
No electrician needed. This fixture is solar-powered with no mains connection required. Cut or dig a recess in the ground to the fixture dimensions (~10×10×5cm), set the fixture flush with the surface, and apply waterproof silicone sealant around the edges for maximum ingress protection. The solar module charges during daylight and the twilight sensor activates the light automatically at dusk. Ensure the top surface of the fixture is unobstructed and receives direct sunlight for optimal charging.
Can I install this in a driveway where cars will drive over it?
+
Yes — the fixture is rated walkable and drivable to 500kg, which covers standard passenger vehicles. Ensure the fixture is set firmly in a stable, compacted surface and that the edges are sealed with waterproof silicone. Do not install in loose gravel or unstable ground where the fixture may shift under load. For heavy vehicle use (vans, trucks), contact us to confirm suitability before ordering.
Will this work in overcast or cloudy weather?
+
The solar module charges in diffuse daylight as well as direct sun, but at a lower rate. On heavily overcast days, charge time will be longer and run time shorter than the stated maximums. The 4–8 hour charge / up to 16 hour run time figures are based on full sun. In mixed weather, expect reduced run time. Ensure the top surface of the fixture is clear of debris, leaves, or standing water that could block the solar module.
How long does delivery take and what are the shipping costs?
+
Standard delivery is 5–7 working days. Free delivery applies automatically on orders over €50 — no code required at checkout. Tracking details are sent by email once dispatched. See our shipping policy.
