Highlight Details
Want to bring the beauty out of the darkness? Bullet lights are perfect for drawing attention to detail. You can use them to uplight a tree, an entry gate, an outdoor sculpture, or other noteworthy detail. Bullet lights can be focused or spread a wider circle of light depending on the need.
Wash Lights
Need to illuminate a unique outside wall or a portion of a landscape? A wash light is a compact solution that is easy to fit in many areas. Wash lights are excellent for adding a layer of light with other lighting to create an overall effect.
Path Lights
Path lights serve dual purposes, adding both aesthetic beauty and safety. Make your home more inviting with softly lit paths to entries while also making it safer for visitors at night. Well done path lighting also shows off your landscape and shrubs along your paths.
Step Lights
Also adding beauty and safety, lights add a dramatic effect to steps. Add them to steps to your front entry or deck and patio steps in your backyard. You can even make your steps appear to almost float in the dark with well-designed step lighting.
Niche Lights
Niche lights are small and practical and can be fit into tight spaces. They are excellent for stone paths or can create unique lighting effects on decks. Be creative, and there’s virtually no limit to how you can add flair to your outdoors.
