What Outdoor Wall Lighting Does for Your Home

The benefits of exterior lighting go well beyond telling your house apart from the one next door. Here are a few reasons you should consider investing in them:

Shine A Light For Security

While it isn't a certainty, exterior wall lights can provide a measure of protection against home intruders. How? Well, burglars and thieves often like to operate in the cover of darkness. More light means a greater risk of detection, while also lending your home the high-end mystique of a lavish (and well-protected) estate.

Enhance Your Home's Exterior

Outdoor wall lights are also a great element to consider when putting together your home's overall design. With these fixtures, you can spotlight your most cherished and striking outdoor elements, like your landscape, entryways, and exterior living spaces. This will enhance your home's curb appeal and give it a more distinguished exterior.

Stay Well-Lit For Accessibility

Not everyone has the best vision at night. Installing outdoor wall light fixtures around your entryways, along the side of your home, and around your patio will help light the way to your home's most important outdoor areas. They'll also help prevent any potential trips or falls, making it easy for loved ones to take a nighttime stroll.

The Best Features To Look For in Your Outdoor Wall Lights

Outdoor wall lighting shouldn't just be about its design, but also its functionality. Here are a few features we recommend looking for when shopping for your new set of outdoor wall lights:

• Energy-Efficient Design: These lights are built to provide consistent light while using less electricity, keeping your energy bill lower than ever. Lamps Plus has over a thousand outdoor wall light fixtures in stock.
• Weather-Resistant Materials: Outdoor lighting should be able to withstand exposure to wind, snow, and rain. Fortunately, Lamps Plus offers a wide range of marine-grade outdoor wall lighting made with truly weather-resistant materials, ensuring your space can stay bright, rain or shine.
• Made for Dark Sky Rated Designs: We have several Dark Sky-Approved outdoor wall lights that are certified to provide little to no light pollution. They ensure your home remains well-lit while you enjoy a starry night sky.
• Charged Via Solar Energy: If your lights are going to be outdoors, why not have ones that harness sunlight during the day and use that natural energy to light up the night? Lamps Plus provides a range of outdoor solar wall lights that are highly energy-efficient and easy to install.

Keep these features in mind when searching for outdoor wall light fixtures, and you'll enjoy even greater benefits from these fixtures beyond the charm and appeal they add to your home's style

Where You Could Place & Install Your Outdoor Wall Lighting

Like lighting a stage play, where you place your exterior lights is important. Install them in the wrong spot, and you'll likely have a permanent eyesore attached to the side of your house. As we've already covered choosing the right exterior wall lights, here are the places we recommend installing your outdoor wall lights:

For Your Front Door & Entryways

• At eye-level, around five to six feet from the ground.
• For a single sconce light, place the fixture on the same side as the doorknob, so you can get good illumination when locking or unlocking your door.
• For a set of lights, flank the door with a pair of wall lights, placing each fixture around six to twelve feet from the door jambs.

For Garage Doors

• Mount lights on each side of the garage door.
• Add another light for each additional garage door, i.e two lights on both sides of a garage door, three lights for two garage doors, etc.
• For example, on a double garage, you might place one light to the left of the first door, another between the two doors, and a third to the right of the second door.

For Patios & Covered Porches

• Position wall lights so that the tops of each fixture are at eye-level ( helps avoid glare).
• Space multiple lights evenly to ensure balanced exposure.

For Outdoor Walkways & the Sides of the House

• Space lights every few feet from each other (around six to ten feet apart) to guide foot traffic safely toward the walkway's destination.
• Install lights around five feet above the ground to maintain consistent glow and glare control.
