Does It Come In Black? – Sticks & Stones

Does It Come In Black?

“Yes, Mr. Wayne, it does come in black.”- Lucius Fox of ‘Dark Knight Rises’.

I haven’t dropped a movie reference in some time now, but I thought it would be pretty appropriate for this article.  No, the Tumbler is not available for sale.

With landscape lighting fixtures, we all know that aluminum comes in black, plastic comes in black, you can get a Model T in any color, so long as it’s black (Henry Ford),  but did you know that Alliance Outdoor Lighting has expanded their ALREADY large assortment of gorgeous, aged brass fixtures to include… wait for it… Black! 

How many times have you presented these beautiful, nearly indestructible (yeah, their fixtures are no joke!) brass fixtures to your customer only to have them say:  “I really wanted them in black”.

Alliance listened, manufactured, and released their black overcoat product line just recently!

Alliance fixtures are STILL the solid brass fixtures that you already love, but this line has a permanent, textured finish that will not corrode or blister like aluminum fixtures.  Don’t believe them?  They back it with a lifetime warranty on the finish.

That’s confidence right there, folks!

When they tested these on the market, one bullet fixture (BL115-BLK) and one path fixture (PAL105-BLK) were released.  The demand was astronomical for these, so they added more.  A LOT more!  The line has expanded to:

1. Bullet/Up lights (4 styles!)        

2. Flood/Wash lights (Big and small!)
3. Down lights (Just one, but it’s magnificent!)
4. Path hats and stems
    (4 styles of hats, and 2 stem heights!)
5. Path kits
    (China Hat and Contemporary “hockey stick” style!)
6. In ground lights (5 styles!)
7. The new Mini Series fixtures!
8. Deck Post fixture
9. And lastly, which most of you have been waiting for:     UNDERSTEPS! (both 4” and 7”!)

This has not expanded into their BT color change series yet, but my spies… well, my sales rep Joe, says it’s a work in progress.  Just think:  Even MORE options!

Their catalog expands with new releases every year, and sometimes there’s surprise additions that get released even sooner, so stay tuned for the latest updates to help illuminate your world.
