Permanent Lighting in West Meade and Hillwood, TN
West Meade and Hillwood sit at the south end of Metro Nashville's West Nashville community, and Permanent Lighting Solutions sells LED roofline lighting there that stays up year round, and our installers fit it.
Licensed, insured and certified installers fix the channel under the eave, and after that the colors run from your phone.
Two names, one suburban area
Metro Nashville's West Nashville Community Plan lists Hillwood and West Meade among the suburban neighborhoods at the south end of the community, beside Charlotte Park and Warner Park Valley. It files Hillwood, West Meade and Charlotte Park under one planning category, T3 Suburban, and records that Hillwood and West Meade were established in the 1950s. The plan area runs up to the City of Belle Meade on the east and Percy Warner Park on the south, and every town that gets the same installers is listed on the service areas page.
West Meade and Hillwood houses on large lots
Deep setbacks off Harding Pike
For the West Meade properties on both sides of Harding Pike, the plan aims to keep the unusually deep setbacks, the established tree row and the large lots, and it puts existing setbacks at 100 to 400 feet. A house that far back is read as an outline across a long lawn, so the run is laid as one continuous line under the eave. Each corner is cut to the roof's own angle, which keeps that line straight when the house has several gables.
Acre-sized lots around Hillwood
Around Hillwood Country Club, the plan describes single-family homes on 1.5-acre lots with setbacks of 125 to 140 feet. Around Knob Road, the surrounding homes sit on parcels slightly under an acre, with setbacks of 100 to 140 feet. On parcels this size the outbuildings count too. A detached garage or a second building brings a roof edge of its own, and it still runs from the same account on your phone. The page on large-lot houses covers zones and a second controller in more detail.
Steep ground under mature trees
The plan points to steep slopes in the hills that define the character of West Meade and Hillwood, and says tree cover stabilizes the soil on them. The channel is the only piece fixed to the house, along the fascia or soffit, so the work stays at the roof edge and the slope and the trees are left alone.
Color, corners and the daytime look
The channel is color matched to the trim before it goes up, so dark bronze under a dark soffit and white under white trim both read as part of the roof edge. By day the house shows no cords, no gutter clips and no box outside. After dark the lights face down from inside the channel, so the eye finds the glow and never the fitting. How much channel a house takes follows the length of its roofline, and every foot is measured before an estimate is written; the pricing page shows what moves a number.
Holiday lights without a deadline
No 2026 holiday event date is published for West Meade or Hillwood, so none is shown here. Dates that organizers have published across Nashville are on the 2026 holiday lights calendar. A permanent system does not wait on a date. The lights that run warm white on an ordinary night take a Halloween scene or a December scene from the app, and a holiday look can be booked weeks ahead. Thanksgiving, Hanukkah, New Year's, Valentine's, St Patrick's, Easter and the Fourth of July use the same hardware on a different setting.
Questions from houses off Harding Pike
Who installs year-round roofline lighting in West Meade and Hillwood?
Permanent Lighting Solutions does. Our installers fit an aluminum channel in the color of your trim under the roof edge, seat the lights inside it, and mount one controller indoors. The system page shows each part close up.
Will a house set back 100 feet or more still show from the road?
Each light is 72 lumens, among the brightest permanent lights made, and they run as one unbroken line, so the roof edge shows as an outline. How far that carries depends on the lot and the trees in front of it, and the free estimate looks at exactly that.
Can the tree row along the road stay as it is?
Yes. Nothing hangs from a branch, because the lights sit inside the channel and the channel is fixed only to the fascia or soffit. The roof damage answer covers how it is fastened.
Can the house and a detached garage run from one app?
Yes. One account holds up to 4 controllers, and each controller handles up to 8 zones, so the house and the garage can each wear their own look at the same time. The controller answer has the detail.
Does the app charge a monthly fee?
No. There is no monthly or annual app fee and no subscription, and every available feature in the app is free. It works with Amazon Alexa, Google Assistant, Siri and Control4.
