Enhance the beauty of your outdoor space whilst making it safer with garden lighting! Whittle time away in your alfresco or pool area with expertly installed lights allowing you to enjoy the space long after the sun sets (or before the sun rises)!
Decide on your garden usage
Think about how you use your outdoor space. Do you want to sit under your pergola enjoying an early morning coffee? Do you wish you had more pool lighting to enjoy late-night swims? Or are you tired of tripping on the pathway to your front door? Adding the right lights can solve all these issues and more.
There are many ways to add light to your outdoor space:
Spotlights – easily the most popular type of garden lights, spotlights can be used in various ways. Add spotlights near trees or along a wall to add depth and perspective to your garden. Create warm, ambience lighting for patios, decks or outdoor entertaining areas to enjoy them once the sun sets. Or highlight features in your outdoor space such as pergolas or statues to add style and flair to your garden. The possibilities are endless with spotlights. Plus, beyond their visual appeal, spotlights can also double as added security.
Rope lights – create ambience and shed light on stairs or handrails with rope lights. Typically rope lights are LED, which makes them low-energy and cost-effective. Obviously, make sure you purchase rope lights designed for outdoor use rather than a Christmas party!
Pool lights – the glow from a lit pool can create style and ambience to your outdoor garden space. When installing pool lights, safety should be the number one consideration. Engaging a professional residential electrician is paramount to you and your guest’s safety, whether you are adding light in the pool or to the surroundings.
