Brighten Your Evening

EXTEND YOUR EVENINGS WITH OUTDOOR LIGHTING.

Lowcountry living is all about enjoying your time outside, which extends to outdoor living spaces for relaxation, entertaining, or both. No one wants the fun to stop just because the sun goes down. With outdoor lighting—it doesn’t.

The charm of living away from cities is being able to sit back and stare up at the stars after a long day. Without outdoor lighting, hanging out in your backyard might not seem so appealing. Increased safety and security are also benefits not to be overlooked. Curb appeal is another factor—making your home stand out in the neighborhood is guaranteed with the warm glow of professional lighting. Hilton Head Island might be known for being a dark place at night, but the subtle illumination of NiteLites outdoor lighting eliminates dark spots while keeping the Lowcountry aesthetic.

NiteLites—the outdoor lighting professionals—provides turn-key solutions from design to after installation, including getting all necessary ARB approvals. They understand the entire process, and with turtle season being six months out of the year, having a company get those complicated processes done for you makes it much smoother for homeowners. NiteLites keeps client’s systems in regulations, using amber wavelength LEDs when necessary to protect the lives of baby loggerheads turtles. Turtle-safe amber LEDs designed by NiteLites are a responsible way to add ambiance while preserving the ecosystem around your home.

Both homeowners and their guests can enjoy enhanced safety by adding lighting to steps, pathways, pool areas, docks, and outdoor living areas such as patios and decks. With exterior lighting also comes the added benefit of enhancing security by deterring burglars from making your home a target due to the lack of dark areas to hide. A security system is great but only takes effect after your home has been broken into— lighting equals target prevention.

Older lighting systems in the area can take advantage of NiteLites LED retrofits, taking out the obsolete halogen bulbs and using the NiteLites brand of warrantied top-of-the-line LEDs. The cost of operating an outdoor lighting system with their LEDs is 90 percent less than traditional halogen or high-voltage systems.

Big box stores might sell aluminum or plastic light fixtures, but the cost of poorquality products will cost you in the long run. Your home is your greatest investment, so using a professional outdoor lighting contractor is always the best value. NiteLites manufacture their brand of products to withstand harsh saltwater air with their coastal certified and compliant solid brass fixtures. The acid etching process leaves the NiteLites fixtures with an aged brass finish that patinas with time, becoming more beautiful and blending more into your landscape as the years go on.

The effects of NiteLites innovative LEDs range from ethereal moonlighting beamed down from a tree canopy to the subtle wash of lighting over a low garden wall or hedge. Painting with light in the perfect way for your home is not a task for just anyone. A specialized outdoor lighting contractor is needed to elevate your property with a custom-designed plan. Lighting schematics require a level of artistry through the use of minimal fixtures, keeping costs to a minimum while providing the finest results. NiteLites has been in business for many years, so they’ll never leave you in the dark.
