THE FUTURE OF HOME LIGHTING

What Is Permanent Outdoor Lighting?

App Controlled

Change colors, set schedules, and activate holiday themes from your smartphone anytime, anywhere.

Wi-Fi Connected

Connects to your home network for seamless control. Set automations, timers, and sync with smart home systems.

Energy Efficient

Low-voltage LED technology uses a fraction of the energy of traditional lights. Run them every night for pennies.

Permanent outdoor lighting replaces the annual cycle of putting up and taking down holiday lights. A low-profile LED track is installed once along your roofline and stays in place year-round. The magic is in the software: each individual LED can display any color in the spectrum, and you control everything from a free smartphone app. One system handles Christmas, Halloween, July 4th, birthdays, game days, security lighting, and everyday architectural ambiance.

UNLIMITED POSSIBILITIES

Every Holiday, Every Season

One set of lights. Infinite looks. Here are just a few of the ways homeowners use their permanent system.

Christmas

Classic warm white, red and green, or multicolor. Choose any combination you love for the holiday season.

Halloween

Orange, purple, flickering effects, and eerie strobes to haunt your neighbors in the best way.

July 4th

Red, white, and blue with optional chase and wave patterns for a patriotic celebration.

Easter

Soft pastels like lavender, mint green, baby blue, and buttercup yellow create a springtime welcome.

Game Day

Show your team spirit with your favorite colors for Penn State, the Eagles, the Steelers, or the Phillies.

Security Lighting

Bright, steady white light around your property perimeter for year-round safety and security.

Everyday Ambiance

Warm white accent lighting that enhances your home's architecture every night of the year.

Party Mode

Cycling colors, music sync, and dynamic effects for birthday parties, graduations, and celebrations.

INSTALLATION PROCESS

How It Works

From consultation to control, here is how we bring permanent lighting to the property.

1

Free Design Consultation

We visit your home, measure your roofline and architectural features, and discuss how you want to use your lights. We design a system layout tailored to your property.

2

Professional Installation

Our crew installs low-profile, weather-rated LED track along your roofline, fascia, and soffits. The hardware is nearly invisible during the day and built to last.

3

App Setup & Training

We connect your system to Wi-Fi and walk you through the smartphone app. You will learn how to choose colors, set schedules, and activate holiday presets.

4

Enjoy Every Season

From that day forward, you control the property’s lighting from your phone. Christmas today, Halloween tomorrow, and team colors on game day are all one tap away.

5

Light Up Every Season

Once the system is installed, Christmas, Halloween, game day, birthdays, and everyday evening glow are only a few taps away.

Seasonal lighting gives you a classic Christmas display that returns each year. Permanent lighting stays tucked under the eaves and is ready for every holiday, game day, and celebration.

Service Model

Seasonal lighting is installed and removed; permanent lighting stays under the eaves.

QUESTIONS?

Permanent Lighting FAQs

Permanent outdoor lighting is an LED track system that is professionally installed along the roofline, fascia, or soffits and stays there year-round. Unlike seasonal lights that go up and come down each year, permanent lights are a one-time installation. You control the colors and effects from a smartphone app, so the same lights work for Christmas, Halloween, July 4th, everyday ambiance, and more.

Yes. The system connects to your home Wi-Fi network and is managed through a dedicated smartphone app (iOS and Android). From the app, you can choose any color or color combination, set schedules and timers, select pre-built holiday themes, adjust brightness, and activate dynamic effects like fading, chasing, and strobing.

Most residential installations are completed in a single day, typically 4-8 hours depending on home size and roofline complexity. Larger or more complex properties may require two days. We schedule installation at a time convenient for you.

Barely. The LED track and housing are designed to be low-profile and are color-matched to your trim or fascia. During the day, they blend in with your roofline and are nearly invisible. At night, they transform your home.

Warranty coverage varies by system and manufacturer. We will walk you through the coverage for the system recommended for your home.

One Installation. Every Holiday. Forever.

Stop climbing ladders every November. Get a permanent system that does Christmas, Halloween, July 4th, and everything in between, all from your phone.
