What Sets Our Installation Apart

A Professional Process from Design to Reveal

From the first conversation to the final walkthrough, every step of our process is built around precision, durability, and a seamless homeowner experience. At Aluminight, we don’t just install lights — we engineer lighting solutions that feel like they were part of your home from the beginning.

Design-First Approach

We begin with a complimentary on-site consultation where we walk your property and listen to your goals. Our design team blends your vision with professional lighting techniques to create a tailored plan that enhances beauty, improves safety, and anticipates future expansion—should you choose to add more lighting later.

Premium Fixtures with Smart Options

We install only high-performance fixtures from trusted manufacturers like Haven Lighting, Clarolux, Sterling Lighting, and Lumien—including select lines that are proudly American-made and engineered to withstand harsh Midwestern climates. Many of our systems include smart features such as app control, multi-zone customization, dimming, and full RGB color options—perfect for homeowners who want both elegance and flexibility.

Minimally Invasive, Lawn-Friendly Installation

Where others cut corners, we core drill through stone, pavers, and hardscaping when needed to make the installation professional and like it was done when the home was built. We hide wiring and ensure fixtures are placed where they’ll create the best lighting effect. Our goal is always to make your lighting look like it was built into your home from day one. We use durable, waterproof crimp connections—not wire nuts—to deliver long-lasting reliability and protect against moisture, even through Chicagoland’s harshest weather conditions.

Smart Timing, Effortless Control

Your lighting system is equipped with a digital timer or smart controller to automate on/off functions based on your schedule or sunset/sunrise times. Want full control from your phone? Our app-integrated systems allow you to adjust zones, brightness, and themes with just a tap or even automated for those with a busy lifestyle.

Lighting Reveal & Final Walkthrough

Once your system is installed, we return at night for a personalized lighting reveal. This is where we fine-tune beam angles, adjust fixture placements, and walk you through your new system. If applicable, we’ll assist with app setup and show you how to manage everything from your phone. For long-term peace of mind, we also offer annual maintenance plans to keep your system looking and performing its best year after year.

We walk the property together and offer professional recommendations, options, and design insights to bring your vision to life.

Step 3: Detailed Quote

You’ll receive a clear and complete quote—often the same day if it’s a smaller project. Larger installs may require a follow-up meeting to finalize the plan.
