Maxim Lighting Cabana VX Seedy Glass Outdoor Wall Light

Cabana VX is an outdoor wall light from Maxim Lighting. It comes in 3 sizes: 7 x 11 in, 7 x 15 in and 7 x 18 in. Seedy glass is paired with a Black finish.

The Design Story

Cabana VX gets its depth from a frame within a frame, built from square tubing with an inner clear seedy glass that keeps glare down and hides dust and smudges. The Black finish reads as contemporary, yet the shapes stay approachable. Sconces, a hanging pendant, a flush mount and a post mount let one look carry across a porch, entry and driveway. Damp and wet ratings cover both sheltered and open spots.

Why You’ll Love It

It takes E26 Medium bulbs up to 60W per socket, which makes it easy to choose your own color temperature and brightness. Materials: epmm.

Putting It Together

Maxim posts an assembly sheet for each size: 7 x 11 in (PDF), 7 x 15 in (PDF) and 7 x 18 in (PDF). Outdoor fixtures need a weatherproof junction box and a GFCI-protected circuit, so we recommend a qualified electrician for the install.

Where It Shines

Beside a front door or a garage door, along a side path or a back patio wall, and on a deck or balcony. Wall lights at the entry welcome guests, light the lock and house number, and give the front of the house a finished look after dark.
