Outdoor lighting in Pietermaritzburg
Pietermaritzburg, the provincial capital, combines Victorian homes in Scottsville and Clarendon with newer estates in Hayfields, Montrose and up towards Hilton, plus government offices, schools and the industrial area at Willowton and Mkondeni. Homeowners want security lighting, heritage-style lanterns and garden fittings, and Midlands estates often restrict light spill to protect their rural feel. The city sits in a bowl that gets hot, humid summers with frequent thunderstorms and lightning, and cold, misty winters. Guest farms and wedding venues along the Midlands Meander want festoon and path lighting. Solar helps with load-shedding. Electricians must issue a CoC for mains work.
Typical garden lights requests in the area come from:
- Homes: path lights along walkways, spotlights on trees and soft light around the lawn
- Estates and complexes: consistent bollards and path lights through common gardens and walkways
- Lodges, guesthouses and venues: atmospheric garden lighting around lodge paths, pools and wedding lawns
- Municipalities, schools and clubs: robust bollards and path lights in public parks, gardens and cemeteries
- Shops and offices: landscaped entrance beds and walkways lit at office parks and shopping centres
- Industrial sites: simple path and bollard lighting along staff walkways and parking areas
- Farms and smallholdings: solar and mains lights around the homestead garden, dam wall and werf
