Riser Lights Illuminate Your Deck Steps for Safety

30 April 2009

While most of us probably don’t wander around our decks after dark too often, there are doubtlessly times when a little illuminate out there can be handy. As far as deck lighting goes, there are several options. You can find everything from freestanding outdoor lamps to post cap lights integrated into the railings. For steps, something like these riser lights are a good idea.

The ones shown here are made by TimberTech. The company offers several low-voltage, energy efficient “deck lites” that can be integrated into their composite deck systems.

The riser lights give off a gentle illumination to make walking up steps or stairs safer after the sun goes down. Other lights in the lineup include post cap modules and accent lights that mount on posts or between balustrades.
