Lighting is a powerful tool - it can transform spaces that feel dull and uninviting. Looking for a garden lighting electrician to revamp your outdoor space?
ElectricsFixed are your local garden lighting electricians ready to tackle your garden lighting project here in Golden Valley, Hereford.
Before we get into the fun part like design choices, we need to talk about safety. Any form of outdoor installation requires a certain level of precaution. Any kind of outdoor lighting must be fit for use outdoors - essentially being weatherproof. In technical terms this is known as Ingress Protection (IP). An outdoor light should have an IP rating of at least 55 - this ensures the light is fully protected against outdoor elements like rain water.
Garden Lighting for Golden Valley Homes
Here at ElectricsFixed we provide high quality garden lighting solutions specially designed for Golden Valley homeowners. We can install a wide range of outdoor lights - each one with a district purpose. Installing garden lighting can bring a multitude of benefits, these include:
- A brighter, safer space: Having a well lit garden will optimise its usage. You’re more likely to use your garden in the evening if you can actually see the person next to you! It’s also safer and much more convenient. Need to pop out at night? A sensor light can illuminate your path and limit any trips or falls.
- Ideal of outdoor dining & entertaining: With summer right around the corner, adding outdoor lighting allows for BBQs later on in the day. Fancy having some friends round for drinks? You can now enjoy time with friends and family outside, well into the evening. A huge benefit if the kids are upstairs asleep!
- Visual improvement: Adding garden lighting also adds visual interest. A garden is just another room in our homes so decorating it to your liking is something to take advantage of!
- A deterrent: A well lit outdoor space is a huge deterrent against crime. If your garden is easily accessible from a busy road or path - it’s smart to install some form of lighting, we would suggest a PIR light in this case.
Garden Lighting Design
The fun part! Garden lighting design is all about enhancing the parts of your garden you want to see and enjoy. A high quality installation, considerate placement and type of light is all significant in terms of design. The best way to revamp your garden using lighting is to figure out which parts of your garden you’d like to enhance. A good way to do this is to ask yourself the following questions:
- Do you want to focus on visuals, safety or energy efficiency?
- What's your budget?
- Are there any specific items within your garden that you would like to highlight?
To add visual impact we may suggest:
- Decorative outdoor lights.
- A combination of lighting to add a layered feel.
- String lights over an outdoor dining space.
- Stairway panel lighting.
These are just a few examples, lucky for you there are hundreds of lighting options available on today's market. Feeling overwhelmed? Don’t worry, our experienced electricians are always happy to offer guidance!
