Exterior Step Light and Stairwell Light FAQs

What’s the best placement for outdoor stairwell lighting?

Place lights along the stairwell at regular intervals for even illumination. The general rule is to install the lights 18 inches above each step or halfway up the rise of the staircase, depending on the beam angle, for safety and aesthetics.

How bright should outdoor step lights be?

Outdoor step lights should provide enough illumination to enhance safety without causing glare. Depending on your needs and application, a brightness range of 17 to 200 lumens (lm) per light is typical for both functionality and comfort in various lighting conditions.

How do I choose the right color temperature for my stair lights?

For outdoor stair lighting, a color temperature of 2700K to 3000K provides a warm, inviting glow that enhances visibility without being too harsh. Cooler temperatures may be used for a more modern, crisp appearance to your exterior steps and stairwells.

What is the benefit of using LEDs for outdoor step and stairwell lighting?

LEDs are highly energy-efficient and long-lasting. They present bright illumination while consuming minimal power. With a long lifespan, fewer maintenance requirements, and reliable performance in various weather conditions, LEDs are ideal for nearly every outdoor lighting application.

Do I need a professional to install exterior step lights?

While we only sell professional-grade quality lighting, these step and stairwell lights have also been developed for easy DIY installation. However, if you’re unsure about the process, hire a professional for proper wiring, secure mounting, and compliance with safety codes, particularly for more large-scale, complex, or hardwired installations.
