Outside

On the outside of your home, the two things that should be considered when determining your needs are safety/security and aesthetics. A well lit exterior enhances the security and beauty of your home.

Outside Security

Security lighting can be achieved by using a timer(s) on existing exterior to ensure lighting is present during the hours you prefer. In addition, motion detector can be installed in darker areas around the home or areas where it works best for you such as driveways, entrances, etc. LED’s should always be considered for these applications as they are frequently in use and difficulty of changing bulbs due to possible height of fixtures.

Outside Aesthetics

Landscape can also improve the security of your home and also make great improvements to the aesthetics of the home. Generally, a combination to lite the walls of the home and the bushes, trees, etc. in the landscaped areas achieves the best aesthetic results. Having a proper balance of lighting on the home is important to ensure security and street appeal. LED lighting is a must for this application as any other type bulbs/fixtures require a lot of extra maintenance and expense.

Areas to be considered for safety is going down steps, hallways, closets and other dark areas in the home. The more dangerous the task-walking down steps, showering, preparing food is more important for safety reasons.
