TYPES OF OUTDOOR LIGHTING
Outdoor lighting should be beautiful, functional and attainable. You might not realize how much you actually utilize lighting for your outdoor spaces until you lack efficient and proper lighting for them, or your lighting goes out completely.
The purpose of some outdoor light fixtures is to provide safety and security to the exterior of your home when it’s dark outside — for example, spot lights, entryway lights or walkway lights. Other outdoor light fixtures can highlight your home’s landscaping or architectural details — for this, think landscape lighting. Finally, you can choose outdoor lighting that is purely decorative for your entertaining spaces, such as outdoor chandeliers or gas lanterns.
But no matter the purpose, you want outdoor lighting that is going to best match your home’s style and your personal design preference. Luckily, we have a variety of styles, finishes, and sizes of light fixtures from top-brand lighting manufacturers so you’re bound to find lighting solutions you’ll fall in love with.

HOW TO CHOOSE IDEAL OUTDOOR LIGHTING
Sure, choosing a light fixture might initially sound like an easy task. But a lot of thought goes into choosing the perfect ones for your home. There are several types of outdoor light fixtures — all used for different purposes, all of which come in a variety of styles and colors. You want to make sure you’re installing the correct type of light fixture for the area you’re aiming to light for proper and sufficient illumination. On top of that, you want to ensure all your outdoor lighting matches and flows well.
Here are some of the best uses and places to install for the several types of outdoor light fixtures we offer at M&M Lighting:
- Wall lights: Patios, porches, entryways, garages, side yards
- Ceiling/Hanging lights: Porches, patios with overhead covering
- Post lights and pier heads: Patios, walkways, driveways, side yards
- Security lights: Walkways, driveways, side yards, alleys, garages
- Landscape lights: Front yard landscaping features, backyard landscaping features, gardens
Keep in mind that most of these light fixtures should be designed to withstand wet or damp location usage. Wet location light fixtures are made to tolerate inclement weather, such as wind or rain, head-on. Damp location light fixtures are used outdoors in areas that aren’t directly exposed to rain or moisture, such as your patios, porches and the like.
If you’re not sure if the outdoor lighting meets these requirements, ask one of our lighting specialists before you purchase.
Why Outdoor Lighting is Important
Outdoor lighting is important for several reasons, but we’ll highlight three for you. Here’s why you should invest in top-notch outdoor lighting solutions for your home — even if you don’t think it’s that big of a deal.
- It adds a sense of safety and security for you and your family. Kids aren’t the only ones who are afraid of the dark. By adding lighting to the exterior of your home, especially near doorways and walkways, you can prevent injuries from tripping and can scare away any strangers who may cause trouble on your property when in the dark.
- It increases the curb appeal of your home. You can get creative with the ambiance of your outdoor lighting and add a sense of your personality to the exterior of your home.
- It gives your home a more unified look. When you spend time adequately choosing outdoor lights for your home, you’ll give it a more unified, cohesive look. This will impress your guests before they even step foot through your door!
