Most outdoor lighting fails within 3–5 years. Here's why — and what to look for before you buy.
The short answer: plastic.
Plastic fixtures crack under Northeast Ohio's freeze-thaw cycle. Zinc alloy corrodes. Cheap transformers fail on schedule. And some companies count on it — a system that needs replacing in five years is a customer who has to buy again.
At Buckeye Lighting, we've never installed a plastic fixture. Not once.
We use solid brass and copper — the same materials found in commercial and hospitality installations that are built to last decades. They expand and contract with temperature changes without cracking, don't corrode, don't fade, and get better looking over time.
The difference isn't subtle. It's the difference between a system you replace and a system you forget about — because nothing needs fixing.
Every Buckeye Lighting installation comes with a lifetime warranty on all fixtures. No maintenance plans. No annual fees. Install it right the first time, and you're done.
