OUTDOOR Lighting Basics

Outdoor spot lighting is ideal for safety and security in areas without available on-grid power.  Entrances, doorways, alcoves, stairwells and access point, to name a few. Spot lighting can also used for decorative purposes.

Solar powered and wired outdoor pathway lighting is ideal for safety and security on sidewalks, decks, stairways, driveways, playgrounds and many other unique uses. 

Flood lighting is designed for large areas that require illumination usually for safety such as driveways, stairwells and stairways, loading and unloading areas, and uneven walkways.

Solar lamp posts provide flexibility  regardless of placement of electric wiring.  This also permits the most aesthetically pleasing location but still requires consideration to the angle of the sun throughout the day.  Correct placement will insure the most hours of sunlight and the most hours of lighting.

Solar deck lighting permits a wide variety of lighting options without costly electric wiring. Accent, spot, flood, stairway, safety, and many other lighting ideas can be envisioned and created without regard to existing wiring.

So many different sizes and shapes of decorative lighting exist. The usage is limited only by your design imagination. These tend to be designed solely as decorative highlights and not for lighting or safety purposes.
