Light Mount – Installs Clean with Built-In Moisture Control
Not only is the Light Mount from HandrailCovers.com one of our most trusted and best-selling moisture control solutions for exterior lighting installs, but it’s also engineered to deliver long-lasting function and ease of installation. This light plate not only provides a clean, stable mount surface while also delivering moisture protection. For example, whether you’re adding porch lights, sconces, or motion sensors, this block makes the process faster and safer—without having to compromise the integrity of your siding system. Light Mount available with option for rain screen spacer.
Built with modern cladding systems in mind, the Light Mount is part of our innovative Third Wave Series – accessories focused on moisture management and long-term durability. Thanks to its smart water diversion technology, it effectively prevents water intrusion, which is essential to preserve the layers beneath your exterior finish.
Moisture Protection That Works
When installed properly, the Light Mount eliminates or significantly reduces water penetration between the weather barrier and exterior membrane. The mount’s built-in rain gutter and drip channel system redirects water down the sides and safely over the exterior face. With that in mind, this smart design helps prevent mold, rot, and other costly moisture-related damage.
Designed for Efficiency and Versatility
The Light Mount saves both time and labor on-site. It accommodates a range of cladding thicknesses and works seamlessly with 1/2” and 3/4” strapping. It’s easy to install and requires no complicated setup—ideal for contractors and DIYers alike.
Need additional airflow behind the siding? Just add the optional rain screen spacer to create drainage and ventilation behind the mount.
