Gartenbeleuchtung

The right garden lighting makes patios, garden paths, driveways and entrance areas easier to use in the evening. With coordinated outdoor lighting, you can improve visibility and highlight seating areas, plants or façades. At EGLO, you will find garden lights in a variety of designs and styles. These include path lights, pedestal lights, outdoor wall lights, solar lights, as well as outdoor spots and floodlights. Whether you are looking for a single garden light or a lighting concept with several fixtures, the most important factors are the intended use, desired lighting effect, power supply and suitable IP rating.

Choosing garden lights by area of use

Depending on their design, garden lights are suitable for paths, patios, entrances, flower beds or façades. Path lights and pedestal lights help improve visibility along garden paths and driveways. Outdoor wall lights provide illumination around exterior walls, entrances or garages, while garden spots can highlight plants, walls or selected outdoor areas. For patios and seating areas, suitable options may include outdoor floor lamps, table lamps or decorative solar lights, depending on how the space is used. In larger areas, combining several garden lights can help create a more balanced distribution of light. When choosing a light, consider the intended use, light output, beam angle, power supply and suitable IP rating.

Outdoor lighting for garden paths, driveways and entrances

Path lights, pedestal lights and outdoor wall lights are particularly suitable for garden paths, driveways and entrances. They provide targeted illumination along walkways, access routes and entrance areas and, depending on the model, are available as mains-powered, solar-powered or sensor-controlled versions. The IP rating is especially important when choosing outdoor garden lighting. At least IP44 is often selected for areas where lights may be exposed to splashing water. In unprotected locations or areas exposed to higher levels of water, a higher rating such as IP54 or IP65 may be required, depending on the product and installation conditions. The specific installation location, level of weather exposure and information in the product data sheet are decisive.

LED garden lighting for functional and atmospheric light

LED garden lights are available in different designs, light outputs and colour temperatures. Depending on the model, you can choose between permanently integrated LEDs, replaceable bulbs and versions with dimming, motion sensors or adjustable colour temperature. Warm white light between 2,700 and 3,300 K is often selected for patios, seating areas and decorative lighting accents. Neutral white light between 3,300 and 5,300 K may be suitable for paths, entrances or other functional areas where a clearer lighting effect is preferred. LED lights reach their intended brightness immediately. How evenly the light is distributed throughout the garden depends on factors such as the design, beam angle, mounting height and positioning.

Solar lights for garden paths, flower beds and decorative areas

Solar lights are particularly suitable for areas without a power connection. Depending on the design, solar stake lights can be positioned along paths or flower beds, solar spotlights can be directed towards plants or façades, and decorative garden lights can create individual points of light. Many models charge their batteries during the day when there is sufficient sunlight and switch on automatically at dusk. Light output and operating time depend on factors such as the battery charge level, location, season and individual model. When choosing a solar light, consider the position of the solar panel, the desired lighting effect and whether functions such as a dusk sensor or motion sensor are included.

Decorative garden lighting for patios, flower beds and seating areas

Decorative garden lights complement functional outdoor lighting and create targeted lighting accents. Solar lights, portable table lamps, stake lights and compact spots can highlight plants, flower beds, walls and seating areas. For a subtle lighting effect, choose lights with indirect or shielded light. On patios, decorative lights can be combined with outdoor wall lights, floor lamps or table lamps. Make sure that the colour temperature, brightness and design complement the garden lights you already have.

Solar stake lights and decorative solar lights

Depending on the model, solar stake lights can be positioned flexibly in flower beds, along paths or beside patios. Decorative solar lights add individual lighting accents to the garden and do not require a direct connection to the mains. When choosing a model, check whether the solar panel will receive sufficient sunlight and whether the colour temperature, operating time and IP rating are suitable for the intended area of use.

Outdoor floor lamps and wall lights for gardens and patios

Depending on the model, outdoor floor lamps can provide additional light beside seating areas, lounge furniture or dining tables on the patio. Outdoor wall lights illuminate exterior walls, entrances, garages or patio doors without taking up additional floor space. Mains-powered, rechargeable and solar-powered versions are available. When choosing a model, consider the desired light output, power supply, installation method and an IP rating suited to the location.

Solar spotlights and garden spots for targeted lighting accents

Depending on the model, solar spotlights and garden spots can be used to illuminate plants, trees, façades, walls or selected areas of the garden. Adjustable lamp heads allow you to direct the beam towards the desired object. When choosing a light, consider the beam angle, light output, adjustability and power supply. For solar spotlights, the location of the solar panel and sufficient exposure to sunlight are also important.
