Outdoor and landscape lighting
Improve your space through lighting.
Light the path to the door, the steps off the deck and the garden you worked on all summer. Outdoor lighting makes your place safer to walk at night and good to look at from inside.

What we light outside
Paths, gardens, decks and doors.
Path and step lights
Low lights along walkways and steps, so nobody trips on the way to the door.
Garden and accent lights
Small fixtures tucked into the beds to pick out a tree, a rock or a planting you’re proud of.
Post and pillar lights
Light at the driveway or the gate, so the house is easy to find after dark.
Soffit and deck lights
Pot lights in the soffit or the deck ceiling for even light over stairs and patios.
Entry lights
A fixture at the door that suits the house, and lights faces rather than eyes.
Roofline lighting
Permanent Gemstone Lights along the eaves: warm white most nights, colour when you want it.
Gemstone LightsWorth knowing
Low voltage or line voltage?
Most landscape lighting runs on low voltage: a transformer steps the power down, and small fixtures run on a thin cable. Lights at the door, on posts and in soffits usually run on regular household voltage. Many yards use both.
| Low voltage | Line voltage | |
|---|---|---|
| Best for | Paths, steps, gardens, trees | Entries, posts, soffits, garages |
| Fixtures | Small, easy to move as the garden grows | Fixed in place, brighter |
| Wiring | Low-voltage cable from a transformer | Household circuits, run to code |
Control
Timers, dusk-to-dawn sensors, motion sensors and smart switches decide when the lights come on, so you never have to think about them.
Good for the valley
Light the ground, not the sky.
Good outdoor lighting lights what you need and nothing else. It keeps the night sky dark over the valley and keeps light out of your neighbours’ windows.
- Warm colour, 3000K or lower, outside

Safer steps
Every change of level lit, from the driveway to the door.
More evenings
A deck or patio you can use after the sun goes down.
Kerb appeal
A house that looks cared for from the street at night.
Less glare
Light where you want it, not in your eyes or next door.
