Outdoor lighting in Johannesburg
Johannesburg's outdoor lighting jobs range from century-old homes in Parkview, Westcliff and Houghton to modern townhouse complexes in Fourways and Northcliff and industrial yards in City Deep and Selby. Tall walls, electric fences and dark verges make good security lighting a priority, and many streets suffer streetlight outages from cable theft, leaving owners to light their own frontage. Summer thunderstorms bring lightning that kills unprotected LED drivers, and hail cracks cheap diffusers. Load-shedding has made solar floods and battery-backed lights popular. Heritage homes and estates may restrict glare, so choose shielded fittings, and insist on a CoC from the electrician for mains work.

Typical security lights requests in the area come from:
- Homes: motion sensor lights on the boundary wall, gate, side passages and back door
- Estates and complexes: photocell lights along perimeter walls, guardhouses and electric fence lines
- Shops and offices: dusk-to-dawn lighting over shopfronts, loading doors and staff parking with CCTV
- Industrial sites: perimeter security lighting along palisade fences, gates and container stacks
- Municipalities, schools and clubs: vandal-resistant security lights at clinics, schools, depots and community halls
- Lodges, guesthouses and venues: low-glare sensor lights on lodge paths, guest parking and back-of-house areas
Choosing fittings for Johannesburg
The main thing that wears out outdoor lights in Johannesburg is lightning surges and hail, so ask for surge-protected LED, IK08 diffuser, IP65. A cheaper fitting that fails after one season costs more than a good one once the electrician's call-out is added.
Security Lights usually come at IP54 to IP66, with 4000 K to 6000 K. 10 to 100 W, 230 V or solar.
What to include in your request
- List the walls, gates and passages to cover
- Choose motion sensor, photocell or both
- Mention existing CCTV, alarm or electric fence
- Say whether you have an inverter or want solar
- Ask whether a CoC is included
The more detail you give, the more accurate your quote will be.
