Frequently Asked Questions
What type of lights work best?
Solar-powered stake lights are easiest - no wiring needed. They charge during the day and come on automatically at dusk.
How many lights do I need?
Depends on path length. Usually every 2-3 metres gives good coverage. We assess and recommend the right number.
Do they work in winter?
Solar lights work year-round but may be dimmer in winter due to less daylight. We position them for maximum sun exposure.
What about wired lights?
Wired lights are brighter and more reliable but need an electrician for installation. Solar is usually sufficient for path safety.
