Hardscape & Retaining Wall Lighting
Walls and built edges give an outdoor space its structure. Northline plans hardscape lighting to reveal those lines and textures, whether you are coordinating a new patio project or exploring what can be added to existing masonry.

Bring out the shape of your hardscape
The right approach starts with your property and how you want to use it after dark.
Identify the effect
A wash along stone, light below a cap, and illumination near a seat wall create different results. We start with what you want to see from the patio or house.
Review access early
On a new build, planning before caps and finishes are complete can help coordinate wiring. For an existing wall, we assess accessible routes and practical mounting locations.
Allow for the outdoors
Fixture placement should account for moisture, nearby planting, cleaning, and servicing. The wall construction and chosen equipment shape the installation.
A useful starting point
What to send with your request
Include wall length, material, cap details, and any drawings or schedule for upcoming hardscape work.
Include your town or ZIP code so we can discuss the project and scheduling for your address.
Should lighting be planned before a retaining wall is finished?
Early planning is helpful because wiring and fixture locations can be coordinated with construction. Existing walls can also be reviewed for suitable retrofit options.
