Outdoor post light fixtures provide many benefits, come in many designs, and are available in four different types of bulbs. The benefits of outdoor lighting include ambiance, security, and safety. Depending on the bulb and the details you choose, you can also enhance the lamp’s output. See what kind of outdoor post light fixtures Mel Northey Co. Inc. has to offer contractors, builders, and urban planners across the country today!
The common types of outdoor post light fixtures include rustic, traditional, cottage, coastal, modern, and vintage. Depending on what the overall theme or style of the neighborhood, community, or municipal is, you can choose the style that best fits the architecture and other roadside infrastructure. On the other hand, light bulbs are either incandescent, fluorescent, or LED. Each one has its pros and cons.
Although there are many styles and designs, Mel Northey Co. Inc. primarily provides vintage or antique styles for our commercial and industrial lighting products. Most of our lighting fixtures also use LEDs, which shine brighter, are more cost-efficient, and last longer than standard light bulbs.

More about LED bulbs:
- Although expensive to install, they take less energy to light up.
- Ideal for lighting small and wide spaces.
- Safe to handle and dispose of because there are no toxic substances, such as mercury.
- One LED produces the same amount of light as two or three standard bulbs.
- Unlike other bulbs, LEDs don’t produce as much heat.
- LEDs can last for years and only dim slightly as they get older.
Safety is also a key consideration in our designs.

Fluorescent Bulbs vs. Incandescent Lights
Although ours are usually equipped with LED lights, most other outdoor post light fixtures are sometimes made with fluorescent light bulbs. These last up to ten times longer than incandescent bulbs and also use about one-fourth less energy.
Fluorescent bulbs are more expensive, but they last up to a full year, depending on the specific type of bulb. The environmental consideration for outdoor post light fixtures that utilize fluorescent bulbs is that they use trace amounts of mercury and must be recycled. For those looking for less expensive lightbulbs for their outdoor light fixtures, fluorescent lights might be a good choice.
On the other hand, there are also incandescent lights. These are the other types of standard lightbulbs that most communities use to light up their outdoor spaces. The following are a few of the good and bad attributes of incandescent lights:
- Inexpensive to produce and, therefore, cost-efficient for buyers.
- Ideal for lighting small spaces but not a good choice for large spaces.
- Safe to handle and dispose of because there are no toxic substances, such as mercury.
- It is as energy efficient as LEDs since only about 10% of the energy used actually creates light.
- The part of the bulb that doesn’t produce light produces heat.
- Other types of bulbs for outdoor post light fixtures have a better lifespan.
