Light your outdoors to reflect your personal style with string lights, outdoor solar lighting, sleek pendant lighting and more. These fixtures illuminate spaces without requiring any special wiring or elaborate installation. Many of these fixtures also feature bulbs rated for outdoor use, which prevents direct contact with water and prolongs their lifespans.
Illuminate recessed areas of architecture and hardscaping with wall-mounted or ground-recessed lights that eliminate shadows. They can also help reduce tripping hazards at night. If you plan to use these lights for a walkway or driveway, choose low wattage bulbs to avoid unwanted glare.
Create a warm, intimate feeling with hanging lights, such as ceiling-mount or pendant lights, that complement patio dining and seating areas. When choosing these lights, make sure they’re properly placed so they don’t obstruct any walls or doors.
Pathlights highlight garden beds, walkways and patios in a soft glow that helps guests navigate your outdoor space. These lights can be hard wired, plug in, battery operated or solar and are available in a variety of wattages to suit your needs.
These low-voltage fixtures are designed to last, but don’t forget to inspect them regularly for any signs of wear or corrosion from the elements. Be sure your fixture is properly positioned to avoid any obstructions, and ensure it’s not overgrown to protect it from insects. Keeping up with these maintenance tasks will extend the life of your outdoor lights, making them more efficient and effective for longer.
