Make a beautiful first impression! At PROLIGHTING, we think proper landscape lighting is as essential as adding light indoors. Not only can LED landscape lighting highlight the architectural features of your home or business, it also provides an added level of safety and security and allows you to instantly maximize use of any outdoor living space. Keep reading to learn our top six advantages of using outdoor landscape lighting to enhance your home or commercial building and add value.
Appearance
One obvious advantage to landscape lighting is the overall improved look of your home and added curb appeal. Your home or business stays visible and stands out even at night. When used properly, outdoor landscape lighting can highlight structural features by adding intrigue and a sense of drama. Draw attention to walkways, emphasize architectural features like arches and tall windows, or highlight gardens and foliage— there are many ways to use landscape lighting to make your home look incredibly stylish. And not to mention, boosting your home’s curb appeal can actually make your home or commercial space more valuable. Choose LED landscape fixtures that are unobtrusive and designed to blend in and discreetly illuminate, so that your landscape is the main focal point. Or, go with fixtures that stand out and look beautiful in your yard, even when the sun is shining.
Functionality
Improve every inch of your space by adding outdoor lights to increase functionality. When your space is properly lit, the whole outside area can be utilized after sundown. Don’t be restricted to certain areas at specific times — expand your place physically as well as aesthetically. Light up outdoor spaces like patios, pergolas, gazebos, cabanas and more. Or, illuminate the yard so it’s safe for nighttime play. The warm and welcoming vibe will make guests — and you — want to stay a while.
Safety
Proper LED landscape lighting will help draw attention to potential outdoor dangers like stairs, pools, and raised edges. Lighting those areas will decrease the frequency of accidental falls or other injuries while safely guiding people to and from your home or business.
Security
Lighting is vital for good security. There’s a reason high-end homes always have bright outdoor lighting schemes. A well-lit home or business on the outside will help protect against intruders and vandals. Studies have shown that brightly lit homes are far less likely to experience crime than those that are completely dark at night. LED landscape fixtures allow you to secure outside areas and building perimeters easily and affordably. Quality landscape lighting paired with a smart security system will give you peace of mind whether you’re at home or away.
Value
Any kind of lighting upgrade to your home or business will boost its worth. If it is well thought out, designed and installed, exterior lighting as part of your residential or commercial landscaping can increase your property’s value by up to 20%. The National Association of Home Builders has actually reported that over 40% of home buyers they surveyed listed landscape lighting as an “essential” feature.
Efficiency
Thanks to today’s advanced LED technology, landscape fixtures are now more efficient than ever. Recent innovations include ultra-long-lasting LED lamps, durable compact fixtures, and solar-powered options. Low-voltage landscape lighting uses less power than line voltage lighting — about 1/3 less than traditional lights. With LED landscape fixtures, you’ll enjoy energy savings, durable high quality construction, and low maintenance. Depending on the application, landscape lighting can be relatively easy to setup — allowing you to install fixtures yourself without hiring an electrician at an additional cost.
