Properties lucky enough to
have decking ought to make
the most of the feature by
installing some lighting to
keep it visible at night in
order to avoid accidents from
bumps, trips or falls. LED
Decking lights are available in
kit form that meets standards
expected for
waterproof/showerproof
capability – an essential
safety requirement for an
area that might be exposed to
garden hoses or sprinklers or
cleaned by power
hoses.
Flush mounted, recessed
lighting specifically for
decking will make the area
look attractive and provide
sufficient illumination for you
to enjoy the area at night.
Accompanied by some
sensitive wall mounted lights,
or angle adjusted spike or
floodlights, it is possible to
make a seating area where
you can dine at night and
entertain guests over long,
dry evenings. With an area
that has lighting installed it
becomes a place that can be
used year round. Why not
enjoy a cup of hot warming
soup outside on an autumn
evening, snuggled under a
blanket or a wrap – when
you’ve got the light the
darkness doesn’t
matter.
Bathed in blue, a decking
area could look quite
ethereal – a place to retire to
when you want o relax and
enjoy the fresh air and the
stillness of your garden or
courtyard. Not only could you
install LED decking lights
along the edges and any
steps but if you have a
balustrade and rail, you can
fit them there too where the
height will throw the light,
without it being obscured by
footfall or furniture.
