The Long-Lasting Benefits Of LED Exterior Wall Lights

If you’re considering the right way to market the long-lasting benefits of LED exterior wall lights to your customers, or wondering what to stock, then you’re in the right place!  

In this blog, we will cover key selling points and Searchlight products which will appeal to your customers.  

Why Customers Are Choosing LED Exterior Wall Lights 

In an age that puts emphasis on aesthetics, we’re seeing more homes value their exterior design as well as the interior. More homeowners are investing in elevating their outdoor space. Exterior wall lights allow homeowners to enjoy their property after dark.   

Exterior lighting helps to accentuate the design features of a property, such as A-frames, facades and peaks. More than just the attractive appeal, ambient outdoor lighting also improves safety, by allowing visibility at night for steps, stairs, balconies etc.   

Homeowners who have invested in improving their landscaping, with ponds, barbeque areas, ponds, or rockeries, should be able to enjoy those features at any point of the day. As our summers get longer and warmer, many are extending their living space to outdoors, creating seating and dining areas. To make the most of this space, exterior lighting is essential. 

With that said exterior home renovations can come at quite a cost. Customers are actively trying to minimise the expense of achieving that luxury ‘indoor-outdoor’ living. LED is highly commended for its energy efficiency and is favoured for exterior wall lights.   

Benefits Of LED Exterior Wall Lights 

By converting 75% of the energy they produce into light as opposed to heat, LEDs are deemed more environmentally sustainable and cost-efficient.  

While LED bulbs may be a higher upfront expense, this accounts for a significantly longer lifespan. There is less of a need to frequently replace LED lights due to their sustainable energy consumption. While incandescent bulbs have been tested to last 1000 hours, LEDs are said to  last up to 100,000 hours . This further contributes to energy and cost savings.  

Outdoor light fixtures tend to be made from stronger materials, so they are less susceptible to damage and breakages. The Dover Outdoor Wall Light is made with silk die-cast aluminium, so not only is it durable, but will also elevate your outdoor space.  

LED exterior wall lights produce brighter light than other outdoor lighting options, such as halogen bulbs or fluorescent lights. In the instance that your customer wishes to illuminate their outdoor space to aid visibility at night, we would recommend LED lighting.   

By improving visibility with a singular bulb, your customer can save on purchasing more lights to achieve what a singular LED can.  

Outdoor lighting can help increase safety while navigating around a property in the dark, by providing bright and consistent illumination. Customers may be looking to specifically light an area which is prone to accidents, like front doorsteps, making it easier for pedestrians to find their way.   

A well-lit property also helps to discourage criminal activity. Burglars tend to avoid homes with substantial lighting as it is more likely they will be caught. This is a point which is worth marketing to your customers, though it may be obvious it sometimes goes unthought of.   

The customisable nature of LED lights means they can provide bright daylight-type light, cool white or warm white. 

For your customer’s exterior areas, we would recommend warmer lighting, to make a space feel cosier. Fixtures such as the Eiffel Outdoor 2Lt Wall Light offer up and down lighting, ideal for an outdoor space.  

It is also important to consider stocking various designs of exterior wall lights, as customers will want to blend fixtures into their aesthetic. Consider minimalist and decorative styles in your range.
