Railing lights are the perfect way to add value to your home, but there are so many different types out there that it can be challenging to determine which one will be right for you. Whether you have a wooden or aluminum stair railing installed onto your homestead, a set of lights attached will always be a compelling asset to feature.

Tips for Choosing the Perfect Railing Lights for Your Home

To help with this decision, here are four tips to consider when choosing the perfect railing lights.

1. Consider the Purpose

The first thing you will want to do is consider the purpose of your light. Are you looking for something that will keep people on your deck safe? Are you looking for a decorative touch to highlight your home’s decor?

Do you need something that can illuminate your stairs or walkway? Will you place it at the top or bottom of a deck or staircase? Once you know what you are looking for, you can start narrowing down what type of railing lights will work best.

2. How Much Light Do You Want?

Railing lights come in a lot of different configurations. Some are very simple and provide a little extra lighting around your deck or staircase, while others can illuminate an entire area.

You will want to consider how much light you want, as it will affect the size and number of lights you purchase. For example, if you want to illuminate your whole staircase, you may need more than one light fixture.

3. Style

While style should not be your primary consideration, it is an excellent factor. Railing lights come in many different styles, and you will want to consider how much you like the style before making a purchase.

For example, if you don’t like the look of a chandelier on your deck, then an orb pendant light may be just what you need! When deciding what style to choose, remember that some styles may require additional wiring while others can be installed wirelessly.

4. Lighting Control

In addition to style, another thing you will want to take into consideration is deck lighting control.

Are you looking for lighting that will change colors at night? Do you want a colored light that pulses or flashes on and off? These options can also be controlled wirelessly, so knowing exactly what you are looking for is important before making your purchase.

5. Measure Your Space

You will want to ensure that you measure your space before purchasing any lighting. It is important to consider the area where you intend to use the light and the space in which it must fit. For example, a chandelier that is too big may not fit in the space you want to use, while a light that is too small may not offer enough illumination.

6. Use LEDs

Manufacturers are now focusing on LED technology to make the most of every watt. While LED lighting is not quite as energy efficient as traditional incandescent light, it is still much more efficient than outlet lighting! LEDs use up to 80 percent less energy than conventional light bulbs and last ten times longer.

7. Test Out You’re Lighting Before You Buy

After you have chosen the perfect railings lights for your home, it is always a good idea to test them out before you buy. If they don’t look bright enough or the lighting control doesn’t work correctly, you will have wasted your time and money.

8. Consider Accessories

Each type of railings light comes with different accessories that can make them even more attractive and functional. Some lighting will come with pull chains so that you can adjust the intensity of the light when it is dark outside. Others come with butterfly lighting that creates a nice light pattern and can be adjusted to different levels.

9. Use Subtle Light for Entertaining

Because you have to have light, why not choose some that are subdued and create a warm glow? These will help your guests feel more comfortable when coming inside your home at night.

In addition, they can help create a relaxing atmosphere and make everyone feel at ease. The best part is that these lights only draw minimal energy and may help cut your energy bill.

One way to ensure that the railing lights you buy work as planned is by taking them home and testing them out before making a purchase. Whether you have an outdoor deck or are planning to install it indoors, many railing lights will work perfectly well in your home. With a bit of thought and research, you can find the perfect railing lights for your home.
