Outdoor Lights

Why Choose LED Outdoor Lights?

LED outdoor lights offer real advantages over older halogen and incandescent options. Here are the main reasons our customers make the switch.

Lower running costs - LED bulbs convert almost all of their energy into light rather than heat. That means lower electricity bills, especially if you leave outdoor lights on overnight or run them on a timer. Paired with LED bulbs, your outdoor lighting setup will be as efficient as it gets.

Longer lifespan - LED outdoor lights last significantly longer than traditional bulbs. When they do eventually start to fade, they dim gradually rather than cutting out without warning, so you have plenty of time to sort a replacement.

Built for UK weather - Our outdoor LED lights are rated for exterior use and are not affected by rain, frost, or temperature swings. They perform the same whether it is the middle of summer or a wet January night.

Colour and dimming options - We stock LED outdoor lights in warm white, natural white, and cool white colour temperatures. Many of our products also offer dimmable and colour-changing features, so you can set the right tone for any occasion.

Outdoor Lights for Home Security

One of the biggest reasons people fit outdoor lights is security. A well-lit exterior is one of the simplest and most effective deterrents against break-ins and vandalism. Burglars and trespassers prefer to operate in the dark where they are less likely to be seen.

Our LED flood lights provide bright, wide-reaching coverage that lights up large areas like driveways, car parks, and the sides of buildings. Many of our floodlights come with built-in PIR motion sensors, so they only activate when movement is detected. This saves energy and draws immediate attention to anyone approaching your property.

For added convenience, you can pair outdoor security lights with photocell sensors that switch on automatically at dusk and off at dawn. No timers to adjust through the seasons.

Types of LED Outdoor Lights We Sell

We stock a wide range of outdoor lights to suit different areas of your property. Here is a breakdown of the main types and where they work best.

LED Flood Lights

LED flood lights deliver powerful, wide-angle illumination. They are the go-to option for lighting up driveways, forecourts, loading bays, and building exteriors. We carry flood lights from 10w right through to 300w, with options including PIR sensors and photocell sensors. If you need bright, reliable outdoor lights for security or practical use, floodlights are the best starting point.

Outdoor Wall Lights

Outdoor wall lights are ideal for entrances, porches, patios, and along the side of a building. They provide ambient or directional light depending on the fitting style, and they come in a range of designs to suit both modern and traditional properties. Wall lights are a popular choice for homeowners who want something that looks good during the day as well as after dark.

LED Decking Lights

LED decking lights are small, recessed fittings that sit flush with the surface of your deck, steps, or patio. They are available in cool white, warm white, blue, and RGB colour-changing options. Decking lights are popular for lighting up steps and walkways to prevent trips in the dark, and they look great arranged in patterns or along the edge of a raised deck.

Spike Lights

Spike lights push straight into the ground and provide focused, directional light. They are commonly used to line pathways, highlight walls, or pick out features around the outside of a property. Most of our spike lights use a GU10 LED bulb, which makes them easy to maintain and replace. They come in single units or multi-packs.

Ground Lights

LED ground lights are recessed into hard surfaces like driveways, paths, and patios. They sit completely flush and provide upward-facing light, making them a clean, low-profile option for lighting walkways and highlighting exterior walls. Our ground lights are IP67 rated, meaning they are fully protected against dust and temporary submersion in water.

Festoon and String Lights

Festoon and string lights are perfect for creating a relaxed atmosphere across outdoor entertaining areas, pergolas, and terraces. Our smart festoon kits can be controlled from your phone, with adjustable brightness and colour settings. If you are planning a patio area or an outdoor dining setup, festoon lights are a simple way to tie the whole space together.

Weatherproof LED Battens

Weatherproof LED battens are designed for covered outdoor areas and semi-exposed environments. They are a popular choice for car ports, covered walkways, loading docks, and outbuildings. If you need reliable overhead lighting in an outdoor or damp location, weatherproof battens are a practical solution.

What IP Rating Do I Need for Outdoor Lights?

IP ratings tell you how well a light fitting is protected against dust and water. For outdoor lighting, the minimum you should look for is IP44, which protects against splashing water. For lights that will be directly exposed to heavy rain or installed at ground level, go for IP65 or higher. Our decking lights and ground lights are IP67 rated, which means they can handle temporary submersion in water.
