SERVICES / OUTDOOR LIGHTING
FSI designs and installs landscape and architectural lighting for Puget Sound homeowners who want their outdoor space to look right and function well every hour of the day.
the difference
String lights on a nail are not outdoor lighting. The right lighting plan extends your outdoor season by hours, makes the space safer, and makes everything you built look the way it was meant to look after the sun goes down.
Saturated soil, sustained moisture, and freeze-thaw cycles destroy standard landscape fixtures from the inside out. FSI specifies lighting systems built to handle all of it.
Your landscape lighting should still work in your tenth year.
Standard low-voltage fixtures corrode from the inside out in saturated Puget Sound soil. Water wicks up through the wire into the socket and destroys the LED module. FSI specifies FX Luminaire and Dauer Manufacturing fixtures because both are engineered specifically to stop that failure mode.
You get fixtures that hold up through Pacific Northwest winters and perform the same way in year five as they did on install day.
Your lighting should work without you thinking about it.
The right lighting system does not require a button press every evening. FSI installs the FX Luminaire Luxor controller, which manages every lighting zone on an astronomical clock.
Lights ramp up at sunset, shift color temperature by zone, and adjust scenes without manual input. Everything integrates with your existing smart home system so your outdoor lighting is part of the same interface you already use indoors.
WHAT YOU ACTUALLY GET
Every outdoor lighting install FSI completes covers the full scope. Here is what that includes.
01 · BENEFIT
LED recessed and strip lighting installed inside the pergola structure during construction. No surface-mount fixtures. No exposed runs. The lighting looks like it was designed in because it was.
02 · BENEFIT
Low-voltage path lighting, uplighting, and accent fixtures placed according to a CAD-based landscape lighting plan. FSI coordinates with your landscape plan so the light placement works with your plants, hardscape, and property layout.
03 · BENEFIT
Every lighting zone integrated with your existing smart home system. Lutron, Control4, Savant, Crestron. Scheduled scenes, astronomical clock automation, and dimming control from the same app you already use. The lights come on at sunset without a button press.
04 · BENEFIT
FSI coordinates structural lighting, landscape lighting, and smart home integration from one proposal. No AV sub who does not know how the structure was wired. One team owns every run from the panel to the fixture.
From the first site visit to the final walkthrough, FSI manages every trade and every detail of your outdoor space.
01 / 03
Most contractors build one piece of the space. FSI can design and build the entire outdoor room — pergola, kitchen, screens, heaters, lighting, and AV — as one cohesive system, coordinating with vetted contractors if needed.
02 / 03
No contractor coordination. No missed handoffs. No blame-shifting when something does not fit. FSI manages every trade, employs the people doing the work, or subs out to vetted partners.
03 / 03
FSI has been operating in this market since 2005. This climate, these jurisdictions, these materials. Not a new dealer figuring it out. A team with over 340 completed projects.
From First Call to Finished Space
One call. Describe your outdoor structure, your landscape, and how you use the space after dark. FSI asks the right questions before any site visit.
FSI assesses your existing or planned structure and coordinates with your landscape or planned structure design. A CAD-based lighting plan maps fixture placement across every zone before anything is ordered.
Full written proposal covering structural lighting, landscape lighting, smart controls, and installation. Standalone pricing if retrofitting an existing space. You approve before anything is ordered.
Every fixture installed, every run concealed, every zone integrated with your smart home system. No exposed cable runs. No surface-mount retrofits.
Every zone tested and confirmed before FSI leaves. The lights come on at the right time, at the right level, in the right zones. The space is ready.

No pressure. No commitment. FSI comes to your property, walks the space with you, and shows you exactly what is possible and what it costs. Schedule your free consultation to start.
