One of the most important decisions that homeowners and DIY deck builders should keep in mind for new deck builds or deck renovations is how to create an outdoor stair lighting design.

Creatively add delicate lighting to stair risers, gardens, handrails and more to emphasize your favorite areas of your outdoor space with recessed deck stair lights. Able to be installed in virtually any material from composite decking and natural wood, to embedding them into concrete paths or steps; outdoor recessed deck lights will install virtually flush with the material surface for a clean look.
These subtle lights mount flush into your deck boards to highlight the size of your space and accent the architectural features you love about your deck, porch, and patio.
Provide illumination under your stair tread to help guide the way after dark, as well as accentuate the features of your deck that might go unnoticed, with under stair tread deck lighting. Typically installed as LED strip lights, under step lights can be attached at the deck lips for straightforward walking.
Deck tread lighting creates a bright, dramatic curtain of downlight from underneath steps, gazebos, and pavilions to provides an increased sense of safety for family, friends, and guests.
Mount deck rail lights on or under your stair rails to provide a superb glow and light the way for family and friends as the ascend and descend the exterior stairs. Outdoor stair rail lights cast a warm glow that lets you and your guests enjoy long evenings outdoors - and provide a soft protective light on steps and surroundings.
