Why light the path

A Safer Walk and a Better First Impression

Paths that lead to your entry or your outdoor living space should feel safe and welcoming. Proper lighting makes them easy to navigate whenever it's dark.

  • 01

    A Bigger Outdoor Space

    Lighting opens up the yard, so guests can see where the path leads and what's around it.

  • 02

    Curb Appeal and Value

    Well-placed path lights bring out the garden and the details along the walk.

  • 03

    Safety and Security

    See anything in the way, and keep dark corners from giving intruders cover.

  • 04

    Fewer Trips and Slips

    Lit steps and walkways help prevent accidents in the tricky spots.

What we install

Four Ways to Light a Path

We design with an artistic flair, accenting the path itself and the landscape around it.

Post-style path lights along a front walk
01

Traditional Path Light

The classic low-voltage post with a top hat, customizable down to sculpted fixture shapes. A favorite for the walk to the front door.

02

Moonlighting

Fixtures mounted high in a tree or under the roof soffit bathe the path in soft light from above.

Plan your path

See How Spacing Changes the Walk

Pick a layout and a spacing to see why we design for even, overlapping pools of light.

Layout

Spacing

Staggered, Even SpacingLights alternate sides of the walk, so it never looks like a landing strip. Overlapping pools, no dark gaps. This is what we design for.

Every system we install

Built Around How You Use the Path

We balance brightness for your purpose: curb appeal, safety, or a bit of both.

  • Energy Efficient

    A low-voltage system tuned to the lighting result you want.

  • Versatile Design

    Custom layouts that suit any landscape and the material of your path.

  • Budget Friendly

    A range of fixtures to fit your budget and keep electric bills low.

  • Practical Choices

    Small well lights where posts would get knocked over or block the mower.

Built for New Orleans

Ready for Heavy Rain and Gulf Humidity

Our walkways deal with heavy rain, humidity, and the occasional storm, so we choose fixtures and placement that last.

  • LED

    Low-Voltage LED

    Low-voltage LED path lights last longest in our humid, rainy climate.

  • Sealed

    Weather-Rated Housings

    Corrosion-resistant, weather-rated fixtures that stand up to Gulf weather.

  • Drainage

    Smart Placement

    Fixtures placed with drainage in mind, so the lighting keeps working after a downpour.

A Pathway Lighting Review

We loved our lights, so we added some additional pathway light fixtures. Once again, we're very pleased with Big Easy Lighting's customer service and would highly recommend them for any outdoor lighting needs.

Pathway lighting FAQ

Questions About Pathway Lighting

Don't see yours? Call and ask. We're always happy to help.

How Much Does Pathway Lighting Cost in New Orleans?+

Pathway lighting cost depends on the length of the path and the number of fixtures. A short entry walk costs less than a long driveway or garden path. A free on-site estimate gives you the exact number.

How Far Apart Should Pathway Lights Be Spaced?+

Spacing depends on the fixture and the brightness you want, but path lights are typically placed several feet apart to create even, overlapping pools of light without harsh dark gaps. We design the spacing for your specific walkway.

Is Pathway Lighting Worth It?+

Yes. Pathway lighting improves safety on steps and walkways, deters intruders, and adds curb appeal, making it one of the most practical outdoor lighting upgrades for a New Orleans home.

What Type of Pathway Lighting Lasts Longest in New Orleans?+

Low-voltage LED path lights with corrosion-resistant, weather-rated housings last longest in our humid, rainy climate. We choose fixtures and placement that stand up to Gulf weather.

Can Pathway Lighting Be Added to an Existing Yard?+

Yes. Low-voltage pathway lighting can be added to most existing yards with minimal disruption, since the wiring is shallow and the transformer ties into a standard outlet. We plan the route to fit your landscape.
