NUVO Lighting SF77-852 1-Light, 18in, Wall Lantern, Mansard Lantern with Textured Acrylic Panels, Black Finish

The SF77-852 mansard wall lantern carries a Wet location rating and is built for outdoor use, so direct rain exposure is fine. That covers open entries, garage walls, and unprotected patio walls, not just covered porches. It's cULus safety listed.

Plan on 8 inches wide, 17.5 inches high, with an 8 inch extension off the wall. That 8 inch projection is the number to check against a door swing, a walkway, or a tight garage jamb, because a fixture standing that far proud of the wall can catch a shoulder in a narrow passage. It weighs 1.7 lbs, so a standard outdoor wall box carries it without extra bracing.

No bulb ships with it. You'll need to order lamps separately: one E26 medium base A19, 60W maximum. For a fleet of entries, that's one lamp per fixture, and A19 medium base is the most common lamp you can buy, so restocking is easy.

Dimming on the SF77-852 is lamp dependent, meaning the fixture itself has no driver, it just sockets a lamp on 120V line voltage. Put a dimmable LED A19 in it and it dims; put a non-dimmable LED in it and it will not. The fixture is rated to 60W, which is the ceiling for an incandescent lamp, and any common LED A19 is well under it.

No. The SF77-852 is not ADA compliant, and with an 8 inch extension off the wall it projects too far for a protruding-objects location. Where an exterior walkway or corridor has to meet ADA, specify an ADA-rated outdoor wall sconce instead. On a garage wall, an entry beside a door, or anywhere outside the path of travel, the projection isn't an issue.

Polycarbonate, not cast metal. That's the reason to pick it for coastal, poolside, or high-humidity multi-family work: there's no ferrous body to rust and no cast aluminum to chalk at the seams. The tradeoff is heft and feel, so if a spec calls for die-cast metal, this won't satisfy it. The panels are textured acrylic in a black finish.

Order NUVO SF77-852, black finish, which is the only finish this mansard lantern is built in. Every fixture across the property will match because there is no second finish to get wrong. The same part is printed by NUVO as SF77/852.

Wall mount to a standard outdoor electrical box on 120V. At 1.7 lbs there's no structural concern, so the decision is really about the box you already have: if the existing fixture was wall mounted on a weatherproof box, this drops onto the same opening. Its 8 inch wide backplate footprint is what determines whether it covers the paint shadow of the old fixture.

No. It's an incandescent-technology lantern, meaning a lamp-socket fixture with no integral LED module and no CCT selector switch. Color temperature is whatever lamp you put in the E26 socket, so if a property wants 3000K across all entries, you control that through the bulb order, not the fixture. Buyers wanting a fixed integral LED with a factory color temperature should look at a dedicated LED wall pack or LED lantern instead.

Yes, lead is the listed Prop 65 chemical for the SF77-852. Institutional and government buyers who route Prop 65 disclosures through procurement should flag it on the submittal. The fixture is RoHS compliant.
