Illuminate Your Home or Business
Illuminate trees, pathways, entryways and your house number with landscape lighting. Many people choose to illuminate the entire exterior of their home.
The effect is dramatic and makes your home a stunning showpiece at night. The right outdoor lighting can provide the best in curb appeal.
Lighting the entire exterior of a building offers increased security. It ensures that all entry points are completely lit and visible for security cameras and officers.
Pathway Lighting
Welcome guests or clients and guide visitors along walkways and paths to your door. Light their way to find the way to a backyard patio.
Pathway lighting can be decorative and enhance the beauty of your property and landscaping. Techniques such as low-level path lights, moon lighting, or lighting beacons are very effective.
A gentle glow downward provides direction without distracting glare. Adding some ambient lighting within a garden bed will provide depth.
Outdoor Perimeter Lighting
We can illuminate the perimeter of your home or business property to provide security along fence lines and walls.
This type of outdoor lighting is excellent for enhancing and featuring a tree or shrub row along a property’s border. It can be very beautiful and defining.
Perimeter lighting addresses security issues and helps protect your home or business assets. Glare-free, high quality targeted light is excellent for security cameras.
Highlight Entryways
Whether you are concerned about safety and security, welcoming guests or customers, guiding deliveries, or want to highlight a beautiful entryway, we have the solutions to fit your needs and budget.
It’s important to highlight the entrance to your home or business making both guests and customers safer and more comfortable.
You can see who is approaching your entrance as well from the interior of the building, especially if the entire area is lit.
