The Benefits of using SLD Commercial Solar Bollards

Solar bollard lights are an affordable and effective lighting solution for home or public areas that offer several benefits over AC powered lighting. The most obvious benefit is the lower installation cost and no on-going electricity costs. To install mains powered lighting, servicemen must be hired to do cabling and conduiting, running wires under the ground from a power source to the newly installed lights – the cost of which can be hundreds of dollars per metre. Our commercial solar bollards are an all-in-one unit that can be surface mounted at no extra costs. While we offer a wide range of overhead solar lights throughout Australia, these are not always suitable or needed for every lighting project. Home gardens typically require ambient lighting rather than floodlighting, and the aesthetic of public parks can be easily disturbed if four metre lighting columns are erected all over the place. SLD solar bollard lights offer aesthetic lighting with a wide range that is suitable for homes and commercial public use, with RGB lighting options and vandal resistant options for areas where vandalism is a concern. As an Australian owned company with manufacturing warehouses, SLD has the benefit of being able to offer our customers customised bollard stems in a variety of colours, materials and finishes to ensure they match the aesthetic of the area they are being installed in. Furthermore, with minimal required maintenance (occasionally cleaning the solar panel) and a minimum battery lifespan of 6 years which are very easily replaceable at low cost, our customers can rest assured of the simple effectiveness of our products. If you would like to learn more about our commercial solar lighting bollards or any of our solar lights that we sell in Australia, feel free to call us on 1300 76 52 65 and talk to one of our lighting consultants.

The Benefits of Solar Bollards and Solar Security Lights for Your Home

Solar Lighting Designs stock a wide range of commercial solar lights for private and commercial use. Apart from the operational and installation cost savings when comparing solar lights to mains powered lighting alternatives, our range of lighting also offers aesthetic and security benefits for our residential and commercial customers.   The aesthetic ambient lighting provided by solar bollards is the perfect addition to heighten any home garden. With simple installation, high quality manufacturing that ensures the products withstand the elements and no ongoing operation costs, all our commercial solar bollards offer our customers hassle free lighting solutions. Additionally, our solar bollards and solar floodlights can be used to illuminate pathways leading to homes, minimising the risk of accidents at night.   While there are obvious aesthetic and safety benefits to outdoor commercial solar lights, as well as economic benefits when compared to AC powered lighting alternatives, a readily overlooked benefit is one of home security. Significant study has gone into the effects of residential and street lighting on criminal behaviour, and results have shown that robbery is significantly reduced through increased ambient lighting around the home. “The assumed anonymity from darkness promotes moral transgressions; darkness also impairs vision and hence reduces the ability to detect an approaching robber and subsequently identify them” (Fotios, Robbins and Farrall, 2021). Due to this, solar lighting bollards and solar floodlights have the benefit of acting as solar security lights, deterring criminals from breaking into your property.   To learn more about solar bollard lights, solar floodlights, or any other of the solar lights that we sell in Australia, visit the products online or give us a call at 1300 76 52 65.
