We have interior WAC lights, and the distributor said they didn’t make exterior-rated ones. Here they are!! Just as the architect planned. I am glad.

We are building a portico. The lights in your awning would be perfect for our use. What type are they?

It’s mixed into the finish. That said, I agree that they will not be a zero maintenance item. Keeping them clean is probably the biggest item for me.

Would you not worry about slipping without a textured finish?

Kevin: Ha. Just a sign that says “finished floors… socks only please”.

Ties in so much better with the overall exterior look of the house. Edges of grass looking a little ragged in your pics, haha. I sense a weed whacker purchase forth coming. Welcome to lawn care.
