Highlights and Lowlights
Whether you’re looking at improving an existing deck or building a new, custom deck, lighting is a great way to enhance your deck plans. The primary benefit of deck lighting is to be able to extend the use of your deck past sunset. Safety is the number one issue. Proper deck lighting allows you to navigate your deck and any stairs much more easily in the dark. Yet good lighting also creates a nice ambiance.
The amount and type of lights used will depend on the size and design of your deck. Low deck lighting casts soft, inviting illumination in seating areas. Spotlights highlight areas such as outdoor kitchens. Recessed lighting installed in walkways and doorways provides extra security. Lighting on columns will add the perfect finishing touch.
Low-voltage deck lighting is usually recommended because it will illuminate your deck without annoying your neighbors. LED deck lighting is low voltage and usually complies with most local building codes. Michigan’s Best Deck Builders offers outdoor lighting to suit virtually every, deck, patio, garden and landscape. Of course with so many choices in lighting, we’ll help you decide what type of lighting will enhance your new deck.
