Round ⭕️ Holes

And

Square 🔲 Pegs

Square is the Way to Go

 

The phrase “trying to put a square peg in a round hole” is often used to describe something that is theoretically impossible. With our Square Post #6400 Series and the included topper #2 (Pier Mount #2), you can now mount your lanterns, which were originally designed to fit a 3″ post, onto our square posts.

 

This is a perfect example of a square peg fitting into a round hole, and it’s all thanks to Primelite!

 

As you know, Primelite has been offering lanterns and coordinating posts and poles since our early days. With a wide range of post options available, including smooth, fluted, circular, and now square designs, our posts provide a sturdy foundation for your post lights. 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Our Square Posts boast versatility in their simple yet elegant design. Made of gauge .125 4″ aluminum, these posts can be extruded up to a towering height of 20′, with 8 standard height options available. However, if your project requires a custom height, we can create a post tailored to your specific needs, up to 20 feet tall.

 

For projects where direct burial installation is not feasible, we offer a Shoe Base option (#6400 SB Series). In addition, we provide various square post top options to choose from, including a plain square post cap (#6401), a post cap with a 1/2″ female top (#6402), and a post cap with a 3/4″ female top (#6403).

 

 

#6400 Series with Multiple Heads Fixture #1573-T2

 

 

Since our Square Posts have four sides, you can install multiple heads per post. For instance, our Street Light #1573 can accommodate up to four heads on a single post, with one head facing each direction.

If you need some inspiration for your exterior lighting design, look no further than Primelite. We have a vast selection of Street Lights and Lanterns to choose from, and we understand that the type of post on which your light shines is just as important as the light itself. Apart from our Square Post Series #6400, we offer a wide range of post options, including simple 3″ aluminum poles and classically styled Cast Aluminum Posts, with heights ranging from 2 to 16 feet and smooth or fluted tops. We also provide decorative bases, enabling our clients to create a sleek, affordable, and polished design that suits their specific needs and preferences.

We also offer electrical options, such as electric eye and convenience outlets, to enhance the functionality of the lighting system. Paying attention to such details can make a significant difference in the overall appearance and functionality of your lighting system.
