Outdoor lighting in Kimberley

Kimberley's mix of historic homes, newer suburbs such as Royldene, Hadison Park and Monument Heights, and the businesses around the Big Hole makes it a steady market for security lighting, garden fittings and commercial floods. The Northern Cape gets some of the best sun in the country, so solar flood lights, solar garden lights and solar street lights make strong sense, especially during load-shedding and municipal outages. Extreme summer heat and intense UV degrade cheap plastic housings, and winters can be frosty. Farms and game farms around Barkly West use solar for gates and yards. Local electricians install mains lighting and issue a CoC.

Choosing fittings for Kimberley

Local conditions matter: intense UV and summer heat is the usual cause of failed fittings in Kimberley. Specify uV-stabilised die-cast aluminium, glass lenses and quality solar cells, and check that cable glands and seals are included in the quote.

String Lights usually come at IP44 to IP65, with 2200 K to 2700 K extra warm. 0.5 to 2 W per bulb, 230 V or solar.

What to include in your request

  • Give the total length of each run to be lit
  • Say whether the area is covered or exposed
  • State whether you want to buy, hire or have them installed
  • Mention if you need a new outdoor plug point
  • Give the date if it is for an event or festive season

The more detail you give, the more accurate your quote will be.

Frequently asked questions

What does string lights cost in Kimberley?
It depends on the fittings and their quality, how many you need, the length of cable and any trenching, and whether you want supply only or installation too. As a rough guide: Roughly R300 to R1,500 per 10 m string, installation extra. Send your request and a lighting supplier serving Kimberley will quote you.
Do I need an electrician in Kimberley?
For new fixed wiring, yes. Outdoor lights wired into your home's supply must be installed by a registered electrician, who issues a Certificate of Compliance (CoC). Solar and plug-in lights don't need one. We can pass your request to electricians in Kimberley.
Do solar lights work well in Kimberley?
Kimberley averages about 6.3 peak sun hours a day over the year, dropping to roughly 4.8 on short winter days. Choose a panel and battery sized for winter, and keep panels clear of shade. See solar lights in Kimberley.
Do you sell or install lights yourselves?
No. We don't sell, install or repair anything. We pass your request to independent suppliers and electricians, who quote you directly. Describe the job and the property so the quotes are easy to compare.
