Turn your outdoor space into a showstopper with low voltage lighting. These energy-saving lights highlight your favorite features, boost curb appeal, and keep walkways, patios, and gardens well-lit for evening strolls.
How Does Low Voltage Landscape and Hardscape Lighting Work?
Low-voltage landscape and hardscape lighting uses a transformer to convert house line voltage (120VAC) down to low voltage (12VAC – 24VAC). A low-voltage lighting system comprises several components, including a low-voltage transformer, direct burial low-voltage cable, and a low-voltage light fixture(s). Saunders Hardscape has all these components to help you install these lighting fixtures in your backyard. These lighting fixtures can be used for pathways, gardens, decks, walls, and more.

Hardscape Lighting Uses
Feature a focal point
Want to make your favorite tree, water feature, or sculpture the star of the show? Hardscape lighting does the trick by shining a spotlight—literally—on whatever you want to highlight. Place a few well-aimed lights, and suddenly that area pops with interest and depth, even after dark.
Boost Outdoor Aesthetics
Hardscape lighting boosts outdoor aesthetics by highlighting textures, colors, and features, making your space look more inviting and visually appealing. It adds depth and dimension, turning ordinary areas into attractive environments.
Improve Safety & Security
Hardscape lighting improves safety by illuminating walkways, steps, and entrances, reducing the risk of trips and falls after dark. It also deters intruders and unwanted activity by making your property more visible at night.

Reliable, knowledgeable, and friendly! Sauder's was one of the suppliers we used last year to build our paver patio & retaining wall. They were the ONLY supplier to suggest a border to break up the same color on the patio and wall, and we are SO happy we took their advice!

Add a transformer to prevent your LED fixtures from overheating or burning out prematurely. This automatically adjusts the load of your fixtures, ensuring that your project is energized with the perfect voltage every time.
Installing your low-voltage lights in mortar applications? Whether brick, bluestone, stucco, capstones, travertine, or precast concrete, our integrators are designed for ½” mortar applications.
Do you need low-voltage cables to connect your lighting fixtures to your power source? We have a 500’ spool of 12/2 gauge low-voltage direct burial cable to help you do just that.
Proper connections are essential for successful installation. That’s why we recommend a splice joined by a waterproof connector such as our Ideal Connectors or SureSplice Connectors.
