Deck & Step Lights
Shop deck and step lights to illuminate deck posts, railings, stairways and outdoor seating areas. Compare compact deck fixtures, surface-mounted lights and recessed step lights from brands including Kichler, WAC, Unique, Sollos, Dauer and Vista. Choose the mounting style, voltage and light source that suit your deck and existing lighting system.
How to choose deck and step lights
Match the fixture to the mounting location
Deck post lights can place light near walking routes without a tall path-light stem. Surface-mounted fixtures attach to a suitable face, while recessed designs require space behind the finished surface. Before ordering, check the fixture dimensions, mounting instructions and wire access. For a staircase-focused selection, browse our outdoor step lights.
Plan the power supply and light source
For low-voltage deck lighting, match the fixture's specified input to a compatible landscape lighting transformer. Include the combined fixture load and wire-run requirements when planning the system. Check each model's voltage; fixtures in this collection do not all use the same power supply.
Integrated LED fixtures include their light source. Fixtures designed for replaceable lamps let you select a compatible bulb, but a lamp may be sold separately. Read the product details for the required lamp type, wattage limit and included components.
Choose comfortable light for outdoor living
Compare shielded or louvered designs that direct light toward the walking surface. Where available, 2700K offers a warm appearance and 3000K a slightly crisper warm white. Match nearby fixtures for a consistent look, and test placement after dark before completing the installation. Spacing depends on mounting height, light distribution and the deck layout.
For lighting beneath a ledge or wall cap, explore hardscape lights. Need help matching fixtures to your project? Contact Atlantic Lighting with your mounting location and power-supply details.
