Fall is for Planting & Lighting

Fall is for planting as well as custom lighting. When planning your garden this season, don’t forget to incorporate an effective custom lighting design. Use of mini garden post lanterns, wall niche lights, pier mount lanterns and entrance gate lanterns are popular design choices.

One of our signature design ideas is our custom 6”x 6”x 43”cedar garden post. By miniaturizing any of our wall lanterns (in either 120 volt or 12 volt) and hanging them on the side of the post you can achieve a light output and spread without going to a standard 6’x8’ post. This unique look is perfect for courtyards, patios and driveways.

Another popular design trend is entrance columns for driveways. By creating a recessed niche in the masonry you can set any of our box lanterns, such as our product ,O2910G – the Beaufort lantern with Grill Work ,directly into the space to achieve a decorative and distinctive look. This can also be done on stone walls and barbecue pit areas. You can also add lanterns on the tops of columns with our pier mount lanterns like our product P1048G – the French Provincial, P1350G – the Mission, and P2909G – the St. John’s Lantern. Any of our lanterns can be custom designed to fit any project from a simple mount to a detached scroll bracket.

If you are planning to add a gate or iron detail, as shown with our English Bell lantern Product O1001G, to your entrance we have worked with iron gate companies to design lanterns that they will incorporate right into the iron work. Whether your iron work is an arch going over the driveway or a specially detailed iron gate this design can achieve an elegant look of sophistication.

So get creative with our custom lighting. Our ability to customize the size and mount of any of our lanterns allows for endless design possibilities.
