Summer has arrived, and your clients are shifting their focus to upgrading their neglected outdoor spaces. 

This year, homeowners are increasingly seeking a balance between luxury and practicality, and, according to a report from Decorilla, there's a growing trend to design outdoor areas that reflect the comfort and style of indoor living.

Deckorators 2025 Outdoor Trends report reinforces this shift, showing that homeowners want outdoor spaces that feel like natural extensions of their homes, where they can unwind, entertain guests, and enjoy the outdoors.

To help you stay ahead of these expectations, we've gathered a selection of products worth considering for your upcoming summer projects:

Trex Signature X-Series Cable and Frameless Glass Railing Systems

Available in both cable and frameless glass options, the Signature X-Series Railing System from Trex delivers a clean, modern look with streamlined installation. At the core of the system is a versatile post designed to support both glass panels and stainless-steel cables. The modular design allows the post to be used as an end, line or corner post, and is also designed to accommodate a variety of infills and attachments, allowing for future additions as the X-Series product line expands.

Smart Solar Security Lights from XMCosy+

XMCosy+ Smart Solar Security Lights offer homeowners powerful outdoor lighting without the hefty energy bill. According to the company, the lights charge 35% faster than typical models and detect motion up to 32.8 feet away with a 150-degree range.

Perfect for driveways, patios, gardens, and more, the weatherproof lights can be controlled via app or voice commands. They're also customizable, letting homeowners choose from a variety of color options to suit their space.
