Outdoor Lighting Installation in Gallup, NM

From a motion light over the garage to a fully lit courtyard, our electricians design and install outdoor lighting for Gallup homes and businesses.

Outdoor lighting services

Outdoor electrical equipment in Gallup takes a beating from ultraviolet light, heat, wind-driven dust, and summer downpours. We use wet-location fixtures, weatherproof boxes, UV-resistant conduit, and GFCI protection, and we bury cable at the proper depth. Many communities here value dark skies, so we favor shielded, downward-facing fixtures.

Why Gallup properties call a local electrician

Northwest New Mexico's plateau country brings freezing winter nights, spring wind, and summer lightning. Around Gallup, that means voltage drop on long feeders, weathered outdoor equipment, and electrical systems that have been added onto over the years.

Most properties in McKinley County get their electricity from the City of Gallup, Continental Divide Electric Cooperative, or the Navajo Tribal Utility Authority. If your project touches the meter or main service, we handle the scheduling with the utility.

We provide outdoor lighting installation throughout Gallup and in nearby Gamerco, Rehoboth, Mentmore, and Yatahey.

Outdoor Lighting Installation FAQs for Gallup

Is low-voltage or line-voltage lighting better?

Low-voltage is ideal for landscape and path lighting because it is safe and flexible. Line voltage suits security floods, post lights, and long runs. Many projects use both.

Can you add outdoor outlets at the same time?

Yes. Weatherproof GFCI outlets are easy to add while we are running outdoor circuits.

Will the fixtures hold up in the Gallup sun?

We choose fixtures and conduit rated for ultraviolet exposure and wet locations so they last.
