Outdoor Lighting

The many varieties of outdoor recessed lighting all make things beautiful.

Recessed lighting outdoors may be just as important to recessed lighting indoors for some people. For those who take pride in the exterior of their home, outdoor recessed lighting is a great way to create an ambience effect for your garden, front or back yard and walk way.



Illuminating your outdoor area will surely look pleasant for those you come into your home for a visit.

Any outdoor work is typically harder to do than interior work, and those who have gardened before realize how much work is involved. The same can be said with outdoor recessed lighting. You must have a game plan before you start placing lights here and there. Knowing where and what to light is very important before installation can begin. If you need an idea about where to place your outdoor recess lighting, look at some pictures of homes that have already installed outdoor recessed lighting. Try finding homes with a similar exterior and landscape so you will have a general idea of what the lighting will look like.

There are different types of outdoor recessed lights such as well recessed lighting, step recessed lighting, down recessed lighting and mount deck recessed lighting for example.

Well recessed lighting is called as such because they basically look like a well. Well recessed lighting fixtures are put in the ground in soil or a rock bed to illuminate plants and walk ways for instance. Well recessed lighting fixtures come in a variety of different types of colors (black, silver, brown, grey) and different models, e.g., contemporary or traditional.

Step recessed lighting will help light up steps so people are able to see where they are walking. This type of lighting is used in the theater to ensure people don’t trip when walking up and down the stairs.

Down recessed lighting is one of the common recessed lighting types. Down recessed lighting can be installed on your patio or porch. Down recessed lighting will create more space in your area because you don’t have to worry about a lighting hanging from the ceiling obstructing your view.

Mount deck recessed lights are ideal for those areas that are in need of lights installed in a vertical surface. Mount deck recessed lighting come in a variety of decorative finishes
