A.  General Information
         Recessed Fixtures & Track Fixtures are the most popular means of interior lighting since the 1970's. This is largely due to the beauty of Intensified Lighting. Intensified Lighting is the "Highlighting" of certain objects or areas, while other objects (or areas) remain slightly darker. The natural eye is always attracted to a highlighted object (or area) but is also rested when looking to a darker area. The contrast creates the best overall lighting for view and comfort.


B.  Recessed Fixtures & Track Fixtures -
         Although there are over 100 different types & styles of recessed fixtures, the basic types shown below can give you all you want if they are installed in the right locations.

Recessed AdjustableRecessed Adjustable - Provides inconspicuous accent lighting for horizontal and vertical surfaces. Choice of Baffles or Cones to reduce glare and match appearance of open down-lights

AlzakReflectoAlzak Reflector - Provides highest light output, deeply regressed lamp eliminates glare.
BasicWallWasherBasic Wall Washer - Basic budget wall washer features Perma White reflector. Also available with phenolic baffle.


TRACK FIXTURES - The same applies to track fixtures. Track fixtures are more adjustable in their light beam direction which makes them more popular for retail & commercial use. Track & track head fixtures are more visible than recessed fixtures so matching your color scheme and decor style is always a factor, We recommend you choose the track fixtures at a showroom.

C.  Landscape and Area Lighting

All landscape lighting at your home or business property should always have these two priorities:

PURPOSE -
The necessary amount of illumination for walkway safety & area security.

BEAUTY -
Property enhancement & art expression.

A Landscape Lighting Design should always accomplish both of these priorities at the same time and fit into your energy budget.


RECOMMENDED LANDSCAPE LIGHTING FIXTURES
     for Permanent, Year-Round Use

1.  POST LIGHT - Post lighting fixtures give you the most light for your energy dollar.  Post fixtures are easy to install and easy to maintain.  Post fixtures can vary in height, style and light output.  Receptacles can be installed at the base for holiday lighting and other conveniences.
2.  MUSHROOM LIGHTS - Mushroom lights are favored mostly because of their "low level" lighting along walkways & driveways (usually in sets of 3 or more).  Mushroom lighting gives your property a beautiful lighting "silhouette" appearance but in many cases require more maintenance than other landscape fixtures.
3.  UP-LIGHTING - Up-lighting fixtures can be installed under trees & shrubbery and/or at the base of the property.  Up-lighting can give your property the most beautiful appearance while giving you adequate area lighting as well (reflective light).
4.  STEP-LIGHTS - Step lights refer to "built in" lighting fixtures in steps, decks, retaining walls, etc. (Step lights are usually installed in coordination with the construction of these).  Step lights always give you and good combination of  lighting purpose, beauty and energy usage.
5.  BOLLARD LIGHTS - Bollard lighting fixtures are waist high, heavy duty fixture posts with beacon type heads that are used most commonly for commercial, industrial & institutional walkways and driveways.  They are expensive, well built and are usually recommended for their vandal proof characteristics while giving good Purpose & Beauty lighting.
