Sconces & Pot Lights

Sconces and pot lights are among the most practical and stylish outdoor lighting options, offering convenient solutions for effortlessly lighting your deck and yard.

  • If you are installing outdoor lighting on your own, it's advisable to seek advice from an electrician to confirm that your wiring meets safety standards.
  • Remember to turn off the power supply to all outlets before replacing or installing new lights.
  • Always adhere to the manufacturer's guidelines when mounting your new light; some may require connecting wires to designated points and securing the fixture with screws and washers.
  • Apply any additional weather stripping required for areas with high exposure to the weather and seal the edges with a line of weatherproof caulk.
  • Before installing pot lights on your porch or deck, consult a professional to plan for any necessary cutting or wiring adjustments based on your preferred placement.

Security Lights

Have a long, dark driveway or a lot of pests around your home? A simple motion sensor security light can make dark areas safer and help scare off critters. To install most security lights, you'll need to shut off power and clip existing wires (a pre-existing interior outlet is an excellent place to start), drill through your wall and exterior, connect your light from the outside and finish off with caulking and re-installing outlets or a light switch inside. Be sure to consult our Project Centre for exact instructions and safety steps.

As an alternative to hard wiring security lights, check out our selection of solar & battery powered security lights for easy install options.

Lamp Posts & String Lights

What is it about lamp posts and string lights that are so magical?! Forget the need for lighting; a beautiful lamp post is worth installing for appearances alone. They're also significant mechanisms for other accessories like hanging baskets and string lights!
