Show Off Your Home With Exterior Lighting

We’re looking at exterior lighting and how you can show off your home to best effect. It’s all about achieving key aims so that your home is secure, beautifully lit up with its features accentuated and safe from trips and falls. 

Stylish and Functional Outdoor Lighting

Your light should help make your house look attractive to visitors while at the same time provide some functionality. How does this functionality present itself? Well in relatively simple ways that help daily living such as helping visitors find their way to your door safely, especially when it’s dark, lighting up your gardens, both front and back and to highlight features. Also to provide illumination for the elderly, to make it difficult for burglars and provide security for you and your family.

Illuminate Your Home’s Entrance

The front door should be well illuminated so that it provides enough light to find your way to the door in the first place and also provide an elegant focal point for your entrance. This way guests will be inspired by what they see and also feel welcome. The increased security from a lit doorway means that your guests will always feel safe and secure when they turn up in the evenings or when leaving.  

Lighting Options

You can also back up any lighting with porch lights, lanterns and sconces on the wall, also make sure the number of your house is highlighted so your guests can find their way to the right door. It can really add the right kind of ambience having strategic lighting fixtures around the doorway and make your entrance more attractive to potential buyers should you decide to sell.

Light Up Your Garden

Highlighting your garden using lighting can have a tremendous impact on how it appears to guests and to yourself making it seem more dramatic and imaginative. This visual spectacle can be created using structured plants with strategically uplights carefully secreted where they can show the plants off to best effect. Trees can look more and more dramatic and visually dynamic using lights that are strategically positioned so they shine through the branches of the trees creating shadow and light.

Exterior Lighting For Security 

Lighting for security reasons is obviously one of the most important reasons to have it installed. It’s really hard for a burglar to gain an advantage when it comes to breaking into your home when it is so cleverly lit up so they can easily be seen by you, your neighbours, or security cameras. So, as you can imagine, lighting installations are an essential and important investment that will pay dividends in the long run. It should also help keep your home insurance down too.
