Landscape and Outdoor Lighting Installation in Dallas
Path, patio, porch and security lighting from licensed electricians serving Dallas, Crandall and the DFW metroplex for 15+ years.
Outdoor Lighting Wired for Texas Weather
A to Z Electric installs outdoor and landscape lighting for homes in Dallas and across DFW: path lights, uplighting for trees and the front of the house, patio and pergola lights, porch and soffit lighting, and motion-activated security lights. Every outdoor circuit gets GFCI protection, weather-rated boxes and cable buried at the right depth.
Low-voltage landscape lighting runs from a transformer near the house, which keeps line voltage close to the building and makes long runs across the yard simpler. Line-voltage fixtures suit porches, soffits, flood lights and anything mounted on the house. We help you choose the right mix and put it all on a timer, photocell or smart control.
You get the price before any work begins, and all workmanship is covered by our lifetime warranty.

Who Outdoor Lighting Is For
- Homeowners with dark walks and steps. Path and step lighting is the simplest safety upgrade outside.
- Families who use the backyard after sunset. Patio, pergola and deck lights, plus a ceiling fan for the covered patio.
- Anyone thinking about security. Motion and flood lights on the driveway and the sides of the house.
- Owners of older outdoor wiring. Patio outlets and lights wired decades ago may lack GFCI protection or have cracked, sun-damaged cable.
- New homes with a bare yard. New construction often starts with only a porch light and one outdoor outlet.
How an Outdoor Lighting Project Works
Walk the Property
We walk the yard with you, at dusk if that helps, and mark where light is needed and where power can come from.
Plan and Quote
We plan fixtures, transformer and circuits, and you get the price before any work begins.
Install and Bury
We set fixtures, run and bury cable at the right depth, and protect every outdoor circuit with GFCI.
Aim and Set Controls
We adjust the fixtures after dark and set the timer, photocell or smart control.
Outdoor Lighting Questions
What is the difference between low-voltage and line-voltage outdoor lighting?
Low-voltage landscape lighting runs from a transformer near the house, so the cable in the yard carries low voltage. Line-voltage lighting runs at household voltage and suits porch, soffit, flood and security fixtures. Many homes use both.
Do outdoor lights need GFCI protection?
Outdoor receptacles and the circuits that feed outdoor lighting need GFCI protection, weather-rated boxes and covers, and cable rated and buried for outdoor use. We install all of it to code.
Can my outdoor lights come on automatically?
Yes. A timer, a photocell that switches at dusk, or a smart control can run the lights without anyone touching a switch.
Can you add outlets on the patio while you are there?
Yes. Outdoor outlets, patio circuits and fan circuits are often part of the same project.
How much does outdoor lighting installation cost?
It depends on the number and type of fixtures, the distance from power, whether new circuits or a transformer are needed and the controls you choose. We plan it with you and quote before any work begins.
