Arvada is really two different cities wearing one name: the brick storefronts of Olde Town and the fresh subdivisions out toward Candelas and Leyden Rock. Permanent lighting works with either, quietly complementing a century-old facade or giving a brand new build its first real personality after dark.
Our Permanent Lighting Systems
Homeowners near Ralston Creek Trail or the Arvada Center often want lighting that feels like it belongs to the neighborhood’s history, while families out in Candelas are usually starting from a blank canvas and want the house to make a statement. Either way, a fixed, low-voltage system built into the architecture does the job better than seasonal string lights ever could.
From historic Olde Town homes to new builds in Candelas, we design around your home’s actual architecture.
Give an Olde Town storefront or a Ralston Fields business a warm, professional glow that draws evening foot traffic.
Light up backyard evenings along Ralston Creek or anywhere else in the city with weatherproof patio lighting.
Skip the ladder every December. One system, styled for the holidays and every season after.
Why Permanent Lighting?
Instead of installing, removing, storing, and replacing temporary lights year after year, a permanent Lightfiniti system stays in place and adapts to whatever you want it to do next.

Olde Town Arvada’s historic district is one of the most photographed stretches of the city, and homeowners nearby often want exterior lighting that reads as an enhancement to a century-old facade rather than a competing modern feature. We design warm, low-profile accents that follow the lines of the architecture instead of overpowering it, an approach we also apply to the historic character found in Old Colorado City further south.
On the other end of the city, Candelas and Leyden Rock sit right at the base of the foothills, which means more wind and weather variability than Arvada’s eastern neighborhoods. New construction here gives us a clean slate to run wiring during the build phase or retrofit a finished exterior, and the same commercial-grade fixtures we use hold up to the wind that comes off CO-93.

Permanent lighting is a bigger decision for a business than for a home. Here’s what property owners and managers ask us most before moving forward.
No, that is exactly what we design around. For homes near the historic district, we use warmer color temperatures and place fixtures to trace existing architectural lines like trim, columns, and window frames, so the effect reads as an enhancement rather than a modern addition sitting on top of an old house.
Yes, and it is often easier that way. If you are still finalizing exterior details, we can coordinate with your builder to run low-voltage wiring before the stucco or siding goes up, which keeps everything fully concealed.
Arvada’s western neighborhoods do see more wind than the eastern part of the city, which is why we use aluminum channel mounting fastened directly into fascia or trim rather than adhesive-based systems. It is built for exactly this kind of exposure.
Absolutely. Commercial storefront lighting is typically brighter and designed to draw attention from the sidewalk, while residential accent lighting tends to be warmer and more subtle. We design each independently around its purpose.
Yes, we regularly work with homeowners in HOA-governed communities and can provide documentation on the low-profile mounting system if your HOA requires review of exterior changes.
Patio lighting typically uses a mix of fixture types, including post lights, step lights, and string-style permanent lighting, to light the space where you actually sit and gather rather than just the exterior of the house. Many Arvada homeowners near Ralston Creek Trail add both together.
Most Arvada projects are quoted within a few days of the initial walk-through and installed within two to three weeks after approval, though new-construction coordination with a builder in Candelas or Leyden Rock may run on a different timeline.
We install permanent lighting throughout Arvada, from the historic streets of Olde Town to the newer HOA communities in Candelas and Leyden Rock, and everywhere along Ralston Creek Trail in between.
If your home sits close to Wadsworth Blvd or out near I-70, we already know the terrain and the typical roofline styles in your part of the city.
