LED Lighting for Outdoors

If you’re looking to light up your home or business, pay some attention to your outdoor lighting. Proper lighting will keep your property safer, make it easy to find and add huge curb appeal.

If you’re upgrading your outdoor lighting, consider switching to LED lights. There are dozens of good reasons to do so, and we’ve gathered a few here. Read on for some tips and while you’re at it, don’t forget to call SESCOS for all your LED purchase and installation needs.

Flood and Security Lighting

LED fixtures are ideal for security lighting and flood lamps for several reasons.

  • They’re waterproof and impervious to weather conditions.
  • LED lamps work better with security cameras than halogen, mercury or sodium lamps.
  • LED lights give clear, sharp resolution to security-camera tapes, unlike other outdoor lighting systems that show murky, unclear images.
  • Their long life means you never have to worry that your security lighting is going to fail.
  • LED lamps now come in a wide variety of shapes and sizes, making them suitable for any style of outdoor light fixture.

More Light, Less Work

Using LED lights will also save you time and work. You can say goodbye to climbing up ladders and on roofs in all kinds of weather, and forget having to haul out the ladder and box of light bulbs. With LED lamps, you’ll have a long-lasting brightness that won’t dim over time.

As a commercial property owner or manager, you can rest easy knowing that you’ll have low maintenance costs and reduced liability.

Get Green Points

If you own a commercial or industrial property, switching to LED lights for your outdoor lighting is a surefire way to make your mark as an environmentally conscious property owner. Today’s tenants and customers prefer buildings that show “green” initiative. If you’re a property manager, you’ll score points with the building’s owner for saving them money on labor and energy costs.

Make Landscaping Easier

LED light fixtures are ideal for landscaping. You can use them to light up house numbers, business signage, flags, and walkways.

LED strip lighting is a safe, ecologically friendly alternative to holiday lights and party lighting. You can create decorative sets and fairy lights using a low-cost, low-energy option.

Parking Privileges

LED lights work well in parking lots. They use far less energy than mercury vapors, halogen lamps or sodium lights. Parking lot poles that hold the lamps are affordable. You won’t have bulb-replacement or maintenance costs.

A safe, well-lit parking lot is key to any business’s security. Your tenants, employees, and customers will feel be safer in a parking lot that boasts clear, sharp lighting and optimal use of security cameras.

Get the LED Lowdown

Making the change to LED lights for your outdoor lighting doesn’t have to mean a complete rewiring of your home or business. A SESCOS consultant can inspect your wiring and let you know if a retrofit would be a better option.
