Do you already have lighting in your garden? Whether you have a front yard or a backyard, or maybe both, it never hurts to provide good lighting. We have listed five reasons for you to illuminate your garden.
Did you know that a garden with good lighting can ensure that your house is less likely to be broken into? Burglars prefer to do their work in the dark, and do not like to be in the spotlight. If you illuminate your garden with a good outdoor lamp, there is a good chance that they will walk on quietly, looking for a garden that is not lit, where we can quietly do their 'work'. A good reason not to leave your garden dark!
If you come home from work in the dark, it is nice if your garden is lit. Your house looks a bit more inviting, and at least you can see where you are walking. This way you don't trip over a stray football or the neighbor's cat, which is nice. Moreover, you will also find the keyhole a lot faster if you have a light with it, which saves a lot of annoyance.
Do you like to sit outside in your garden in the summer? Then you might also do that in the evening, especially if it stays warm for a long time. Although in the summer the sun does not set until quite late, as the hours go by it really gets darker and you can't see your company as well, just like the drink you have on the table. Being able to turn on a light is so nice. It doesn't have to be very bright, but a little mood lighting in your garden makes a sultry summer evening extra cozy.
You do not only provide lighting in your garden for yourself, but also for the neighbors, for the neighborhood. A very dark street does not make a pleasant impression, illuminated gardens look nicer and give a safer feeling. A good reason to put our heads together and switch to garden lighting.
Are you worried that all that lighting will cost you a lot of money? It is not necessary. Garden lighting can be installed very energy-efficiently. By choosing an outdoor lamp with a sensor, you can ensure that light only shines when it is dark, or even only when movement is detected. Your lamp is then no longer on than necessary. And by choosing economical LED lighting, you ensure that energy costs do not have to be a reason to forgo lighting in your garden.
