NUVO Lighting 60-4957 Cove Neck, 1-Light, 14in, Outdoor Lantern with Clear Seed Glass

Yes. The Cove Neck 60-4957 wall lantern carries a Wet location rating and is listed for outdoor use, so it can go on an unprotected wall exposed to direct rain, not just under a covered porch. Safety listing is cULus.

Plan on 9 inches wide by 14 inches high, with an 11.5 inch extension off the wall. That projection is worth checking against doorway trim and walkway clearance, since 11.5 inches is deep for a wall lantern. Fixture weight is 4.85 lbs, so a standard outdoor wall box will carry it.

One E26 medium base lamp, A19 shape, rated to 100W max at 120V. No bulb ships with the fixture, so order lamps separately. An A19 LED retrofit in a medium base works fine; dimming depends entirely on the lamp you choose, since the fixture itself has no driver.

No. The Cove Neck 60-4957 is listed as not ADA compliant, and with an 11.5 inch extension it projects well past the 4 inch limit ADA sets for wall-mounted objects in circulation paths. For an entry wall, a soffit, or any location outside a walking route it is fine; for a path of travel between 27 and 80 inches above the floor, specify an ADA-compliant sconce instead.

The housing is die-cast aluminum with glass, so there is no ferrous body to rust through, and the fixture is wet rated. Die-cast aluminum with a painted white finish is the normal choice for exterior multifamily and hospitality entries. For direct salt-spray exposure, expect finish maintenance like any painted aluminum exterior fixture.

One configuration: white finish with clear seeded glass. The seeded glass has visible bubbles in it, so the lamp filament or LED is partly visible and the light output is largely clear rather than diffused. If you need a frosted or opal look to hide the bulb, this is not it.

The Cove Neck 60-4957 is a wall-mount fixture, wired for 120V line voltage, intended for a standard outdoor wall junction box. At 4.85 lbs it is light enough for a typical weatherproof box and crossbar. Mount the backplate over the box and seal the top edge to the wall to keep water from tracking behind it.

The fixture is RoHS compliant. It does carry a California Prop 65 notice for lead, which is typical of brass and die-cast components in exterior lighting, so a Prop 65 warning needs to accompany the product for California jobs.

No. It has no integrated LED and no CCT selector switch. It is a socketed lantern with a single E26 medium base, so the color temperature is whatever lamp you put in it. That is useful for a property manager standardizing color across a building, since you pick one bulb spec and use it everywhere.
