Dock Lighting

THE IMPORTANCE OF DOCK LIGHTING

Docks are great for swimming, fishing and a great place to store your boat.  That is why it is very important to be sure that your dock is properly lit to keep your family, friends, pets, and property safe.

Safety

Docks are not a very safe place to start with as the decking can be uneven causing tripping hazards which can create the risk of your family, friends, and pets falling into the water –-as my 4-legged child Thelma did.  When the sun goes down, these risks increase.  Lighting your dock will keep everyone safe.  (dog in the water picture here)

Security

If you are a boat owner, you need to take precautions to keep your boat safe.  Lighting helps prevent theft—keeping your boat visible to make it difficult to steal.  A properly illuminated dock can help deter people with ill intent.

Aesthetics

Docks are the most beautiful objects in the dark of night.  There is nothing more magnificent than to see the dock lights reflecting off the lake in the evening or the early hours of the morning—making you the envy of your neighbors.
