By incorporating your smart lighting system into your outdoor spaces, the aesthetic can dramatically change with the tap of a button or according to a preprogrammed schedule.  Accentuate features of your home with fixtures that highlight building  arches and  your  meticulously landscaped yard. Or highlight  walking pathways so family members can safely move around in the evenings.

If it’s game night, use your smartphone to bathe the patio in your favorite team’s colors, or choose to brighten the pool lighting for a fun evening swim. Whatever the goal, you can use smart lighting to achieve a great looking entertainment space with the press of a button.

Energy + Security

Smart lighting used outdoors can not only make your home look beautiful, and it can help you save on utility costs while adding an additional layer of protection. As the sun rises in the morning, landscape lighting will turn off to save energy; at dusk, your home will illuminate in with energy-efficient LEDs for both convenience and security.

Dark, poorly lit areas are frequently targeted by opportunistic criminals, so adding a smart lighting system is an easy and convenient way to prevent potential crimes without a second thought. You can pair exterior lighting with motion sensors and surveillance cameras,  so any area that needsincreased security, such as in front of garages or tool sheds, are well-lit and monitored automatically whenever motion is detected. 

Total Home Control

You can take lighting control a step further with a full home automation system. The expert team at Personal Technology can help you incorporate your home’s other smart devices into one easy-to-use system. 

Tapping your finger on your smart device of choice – smartphone, remote, touchscreen or wall keypad – will fire up the outdoor TV and sound system, light up the gazebo, and turn on the heaters along the patio spaces – plus, the same system can turn off lights that you left on inside. Controlling your home’s security and entertainment has never been simpler.

Smart lighting helps you showcase your home in its best light – indoors and outside! To get ready for a summer full of spending time outside, contact us today for a free, no-hassle consultation by completing this online form. We look forward to working with you.
