ABOUT PATIO LIGHTS & LIGHTING
There is a wide choice of patio lights and lighting, in traditional and contemporary styles. Some are ceiling hung, or fitted to walls. Others can be installed at low level, as grill patio lights, recessed patio lights, or light bollards.
The International Dark Sky Association certifies approved patio light fittings as 'Dark Sky Friendly' if they are suitably designed to minimise light pollution.
Patio lights and lighting may use mains voltage, or may use a transformer and low voltage. The latter is safer, and requires smaller wires. Some exterior lighting uses halogen bulbs, allowing for smaller fittings.
