Darien homeowners care about how their homes look. The yards are maintained, and the facades are clean. The impression one has, when driving through, is that of a community where people put effort into their properties. That impression tells the full story during the day. After dark, most of it goes away, except for those homes that have invested in Darien permanent roofline lighting.
It's a professionally installed LED roofline system that stays in place year-round, mounts flush along the soffit, and gives your home a warm presence after sunset that matches the care you've put into it during the day. You can have holiday displays with the touch of a button on your smartphone, and for all other days, soft white architectural lighting that is understated and elegant.
How the Darien permanent roofline lighting works
All the lights are contained within a track. This track is custom-matched to your soffit, fascia, or eave color from over 150 options. Installers bring samples and match to the exact shade of your exterior before ever placing an order, so once the installation is complete, you won’t see the hardware by your roofline. All the wiring is completely concealed within the track channel as well.
As for the lights, they are LED and are based on RGBWW technology. The dedicated warm white diode produces genuine soft light. Most budget alternatives can only mix colors to approximate white, and the result reads cool or bluish. This is the kind of system that can give you a warm glow on your home that feels entirely distinct from what you may see in, say, a hotel parking lot for security. Warm white light feels cozy and comforting, like home should.
The system is IP67 waterproof rated, UV-stabilized, and surge protected at every component. That means these lights won’t simply quit after three years of bad Chicagoland weather. If you’d like to learn more about the technology, you can do so by reading our permanent roofline lighting page.
Darien holiday lighting, without the hassle
If you've been climbing a ladder in November and dragging everything down in January, investing in Darien permanent roofline lighting can make that a thing of the past. The lights can instantly decorate for Christmas, Halloween, the 4th of July, New Year's Eve, game day, and anything else you can think of through the app. You can select from over 14,000 premade patterns and 26+ animations, and with Autopilot, you can subscribe to seasonal calendars that will handle the changing seasons and holidays for you.
When the holidays pass, the system doesn't come down. It transitions to warm white and runs as permanent exterior lighting every evening. You come home on a regular weeknight and the house has this quiet warmth to it that wasn't there before. It's a small detail, but it's one of those small things that makes a real difference in how you feel about your home after dark.
