Exterior shop/barn lights

[1925republic]

First off I apologize if this has been done already, tried a search and didn't come up with what I was looking for. I am in the process of building my shop and looking for exterior light ideas. I want something other than the standard house light look. I'd like to see what others have done for some ideas for overhead doors and man door. Let's see 'em.

Love this idea from Falcon67's shop build thread. I will be doing this. These things are all over eBay and if you look hard enough you can find some at decent prices. ~$30-50 for just the shade. Paint it, plumb it (literally), put in a light socket and BAM!! Let there be light!

Hope these links work.

I have seen those on eBay. I like those too. We have a few swap meets coming up so I'll be looking.

1925republic, you should do more searching. This site has many post on light fixtures.

Here are a couple to look at...
