Lighting Accent with your Allan Block Wall

Lighting provides a great many things to your landscape. It can add more security by illuminating entry areas and pathways. Add functionality by making entertainment or cooking areas more accessible at night. So you have decided to add some lighting to your yard…ok now where does it go and what types do you use? A raised patio, retaining walls, or stairway areas are great places to add lighting right into the structures, which keeps the lighting as more of a backdrop and not center stage. Check out the information on Allan Block’s website about adding lighting to your Allan Block retaining wall. It’s a snap to shine a little light on the subject.

    IC Lights has developed a line of hardscape lighting fixtures to accomodate all Allan Block hardscape installers. Three of the seven models are designed specifically for the Allan Block retaining walls and compensate for the front lip design of the Allan Block. No more mounting to the blocks with screws. Simply place the fixtures bracket between the blocks, or between the block and cap.
