LIGHT up the night. Bosso lights up your home with permanent smart lighting installed once — so you never hang, remove, or store lights again.
E
very homeowner knows the routine. The ladder comes out in the cold, you clip up the lights, hope half of them still work, and squint at the roofline trying to make it even. A few weeks later, you’re back up there taking it all down and boxing it up for another year. Bosso puts an end to that. It’s a permanent outdoor lighting system, professionally installed, that stays with your home all year. No seasonal setup. No removal. Smart lighting all controlled conveniently with your phone.
Bosso is custom-designed to fit your home, then installed clean and color-matched to the home so it integrates right into rooflines and edges. And it doesn’t stop at the front of the house — Bosso gives you full 360° wrap-around coverage, front yard, side and backyard, so your whole property looks finished from every angle. By day, most people won’t even notice it’s there. By night, it’s the reason your home stands out. And it’s all yours to control from your phone.
ONE APP. NO SUBSCRIPTION. 16 MILLION COLORS. 400+ PRESETS. Choose from over 16,000,000 colors, or start with 400+ ready-made presets for any occasion. Set custom schedules and timers so your lights run themselves — on at dusk, off at bedtime, no reminders needed. Turn on geofencing and your home lights automatically when you’re close, then switches off on its own when you leave. The Bosso app is free, with no subscription, ever.
A PRESET FOR EVERY NIGHT OF THE YEAR. • Warm accent lighting — a soft, elegant glow that makes the whole house look put-together. • Security — dial brightness anywhere from 0 to 100% to keep the property well-lit and safe. • Holidays — orange for Halloween, red and green in December, red-white-and-blue in July. • Game days — your team’s colors across the whole house with a single tap.
MADE FOR THE MOMENTS THAT MATTER. Hosting a party, a birthday, or a backyard get-together? Bosso is perfect for special events — set the scene in seconds, wrap the whole yard in color, and let your home do the decorating. With music sync, zone control, and AI voice and
text control, the perfect look is always one tap away. Works with Alexa, Google Assistant, Siri, and Control4, too.
BUILT TO LAST. BACKED TO PROVE IT. Bosso is durable and energy-efficient, made for yearround life outside. The LED lights are rated for 25 years of use, and every system is covered by a 5-year product warranty. You buy it once — and it stays beautiful for a very long time.
WE HANDLE ALL OF IT. From the first design consultation to the final switch flip, our team takes care of everything — design, professional installation, and a system that’s ready for year-round use with the smartest APP in the industry. Contact us today and we’ll come out and show you why Bosso is trusted by 15,000+ home owners.

WHY A+ GARAGE DOORS IS UTAH’S BEST OF STATE

n the heart of Utah, where community connections run deep and mountain winters arrive fast, A+ Garage Doors has built its reputation as a trusted local staple. For two decades, this family-owned leader has approached home services with a clear mission: delivering uncompromising quality, genuine integrity, and exceptional service to households across the Beehive State. Beyond basic installation and repair, the team views every project as an opportunity to protect and enhance the place families call home. As freezing temperatures approach, one of the most vital—yet frequently overlooked—upgrades homeowners can make is insulating their garage door.
During a Wasatch Front winter, sub-zero winds turn uninsulated single-layer doors into massive cold plates. Because the garage door is the largest moving barrier on any residence, cold exterior temperatures leak directly through uninsulated metal panels into adjacent living spaces, bedrooms, or bonus rooms. This thermal leak forces home heating systems to work twice as hard, driving up energy bills throughout the season. Upgrading to high-density insulation creates a durable thermal seal that keeps the garage 20 to 30 degrees warmer during extreme winter spells, curbing energy waste and lowering monthly utility costs.
SUPERIOR PROTECTION AND EFFICIENCY
Modern insulation does far more than regulate indoor climates. A+ Garage Doors offers premium polyurethane foam-injected steel options that deliver superior R-values and
structural strength. Unlike basic polystyrene board inserts, liquid polyurethane expands to fill every internal cavity, bonding directly to the interior and exterior steel skins. This process creates a rigid, multi-layer sandwich panel that resists dents, reduces outside street noise, and dampens mechanical vibration during daily operation. Additionally, insulating your space safeguards car batteries, power tools, and stored household goods from harsh freezing conditions.
BEAT THE SEASONAL RUSH
Waiting until mid-winter to address drafty panels or failing weather seals often leads to emergency service calls when components freeze or springs snap under thermal stress. Prepping your home before late autumn ensures your system features properly aligned tracks, fresh perimeter seals, and heavy-duty springs calibrated for insulated doors.
SCHEDULE YOUR THERMAL UPGRADE
Whether you want to retrofit your existing setup or install a custom, energy-efficient door to boost your curb appeal, A+ Garage Doors provides expert service tailored to Utah’s unique climate. Protect your home comfort and lower heating costs this season. Visit APlusDoor.com or call (801) 804-5835 to request your free estimate and schedule an insulation consultation today.
