These are nice lights. I put them inside my house on a beam that goes across my living room to dining room. Three on each side. Bought LED lights that are dimmable and works perfect. The one thing we had to do was get a backing to put between the fixture and the wall because we didn't realize the back was not flat. It actually sticks out the back about an inch. so be sure to account for that. What we did was go to arts and crafts at Walmart and we found a wood panel that was exactly the right size and even had a nice edging that matched the edging on the light. I was such a lucky find. We cut the back of the board to fit the light and even then, we had to add a thin back (we used cork from the same dept. but could be anything). I know this sounds like a lot of trouble but it really wasn't. Took a few hours to do six lights. Looks great and was worth the effort.
