No matter the size of the patio, balcony or garden, there are a wide range of lights to instantly transform the space to make it that much more welcoming. Here are a few of the most popular types and styles of the outdoor light: Task The task lights are a practical choice for installing at entrance points to front porches, sheds, garages, etc. They give a useful amount of illumination to make it that much easier to enter and leave a property. One of the most attractive styles to install above the front door is the lantern wall light which has a very inviting and stylish look. Also, the flush fitting wall lights give similar illumination, but are more cost-effective and great for installing above the back or side doors.

Alternatively, the deck lights can help to mark out a pathway. Accent Accent lights are the best option to add a touch of drama and atmosphere to the garden. They are a nice way to highlight a water feature, sculpture, pond, certain plants or other focal points outside. A single accent light placed under foliage or near a favorite feature gives a focused and intense beam, while a light placed either side of the feature creates the more flattering and soft effect. Security The dedicated security light is a high visibility and cost-effective deterrent to the would-be intruder. They are useful to install on the main property, outbuildings and boundary walls.

Ideally, the light should be placed at least two meters from ground level. Also, a manual override feature is a practical feature for those that occasionally want the constant source of illumination.
