Common Landscape Lighting Fixtures

The lighting fixtures you choose are determined by the precise area and characteristics you want to highlight. Highlight significant aspects of your Charlotte yard such as your pool, retaining walls, pond, deck, pathway, water feature, or trees. Consider practicality as well, making sure that entrances, gates, walkways, and paths are well-lit.

Spotlights: Due to their simplicity of targeting and adjustment, spotlights generate a concentrated, narrow beam, often approximately 45 degrees, making them perfect for highlighting certain landscape elements and architectural details.
