Frequently Asked Questions

Does Wire Smart install landscape lighting in Salem?

Yes. We design and install low-voltage landscape, path, accent, and security lighting for homes and businesses throughout Salem and the surrounding Willamette Valley.

How much does landscape lighting cost in Salem, OR?

Starter low-voltage packages typically run $1,200–$3,000 including a transformer, timer, and a set of fixtures. Larger multi-zone designs are quoted by fixture count and wiring runs after a design visit.

Low-voltage vs. line-voltage outdoor lighting — what's the difference?

Low-voltage (12V) systems are safe, flexible, and ideal for path and accent lighting. Line-voltage (120V) is used for floodlights and fixtures that need more output. We install both and recommend the right mix for your property.

Can you add outdoor outlets and security floodlights too?

Yes. We add GFCI-protected weatherproof outlets and motion or dusk-to-dawn security floods alongside decorative landscape lighting.

Will the lights turn on automatically?

Yes. We set up timers and photocells (and smart controls if you'd like) so lighting runs dusk-to-dawn or on a schedule without manual switching.

Is a permit required for outdoor lighting?

Adding new line-voltage circuits or outdoor outlets requires an Oregon electrical permit, which we pull and coordinate. Low-voltage lighting on an existing transformer typically does not.
