It is that time of year again, when Atlanta homeowners become expert tailgaters right in their very own backyards. Part of a successful plan for the big game is having good eats and good friends to share it with. If you are fortunate enough to have a designated outdoor grill area, or outdoor kitchen, you have already made the first touchdown! However, you will want to ensure that the fun doesn’t end at dusk. With Outdoor Lighting Perspectives of Atlanta, we can add outdoor lighting to ensure there is no time limits on enjoyment. In this blog, we will discuss outdoor grill and outdoor kitchen lighting ideas for your Atlanta backyard.
What Is The Best Way To Light An Outdoor Grill Area?
The best way to light your Atlanta outdoor grill area is by using dedicated LED grill lights. These are ideally mounted directly above the cooking surface, providing ample illumination without casting shadows. This method will allow you to easily monitor your food while grilling at night. Taking the lighting a step farther, we also recommend the addition of ambient lighting such as bistro lighting, landscape lighting, and deck or patio lighting to the areas surrounding the grilling area. These applications will enhance the area you are working in delivering clear visibility beyond the grill area.
Outdoor Kitchen Lighting Ideas For Your Atlanta Backyard
There are plenty of outdoor kitchen lighting ideas that can be integrated into the design of a new outdoor kitchen build, and for existing structures. If you are planning a new build, Outdoor Lighting Perspectives of Atlanta can work closely with your contractor to ensure lighting is part of the project. This can include hardscape lighting within the backsplash, as well as task lighting. We can also add under counter lighting should your design include cabinetry.
For Atlanta homeowners that have an existing outdoor kitchen, surround lighting such as path lighting or landscape lighting can increase the functionality of your space. In addition, depending on the location of your outdoor kitchen, we can also implement deck and patio lighting into the space to increase visibility even more. The best way to learn which lighting applications would benefit your space the most, is to reach out to us for a design consultation.
