Stairway lighting
When it comes to staircase lighting, it's essential that the stairs and steps themselves are illuminated. It's also important to use a light source that isn't blinding for you and your guests, where a lamp with a shade or diffuser or an indirect light is the optimal choice. Staircase lighting is not only used to illuminate your steps, but just as much to transform your staircase into an elegant and architectural expression both indoors and outdoors. You can use a variety of light sources to illuminate your staircase, including pendants, ceiling lights and LED panels, all of which provide great lighting for your staircase. Take a look below at the Value for money range of stair lighting for both home and garden.
Of course, we also have a large selection of lighting for stairs outside this range!
Light for the stairs
When it comes to lighting stairs, safety is always paramount. The task of the lights is to distribute the light evenly so that the stairs and individual steps are always clearly visible, as this reduces the risk of accidents. Ceiling lights are ideal for this, as they can be mounted at the top landing and spread an even and bright light down the stairs. LED panels are also optimal for bright lighting ideal for staircase lighting, as they have wide beam angles and spread a uniform and bright light that illuminates the stairs perfectly. You can also benefit from using glare-free wall lights in the staircase area, as lights that are too bright can cause more accidents. As most wall lights shine indirectly or have a diffuser with a frosted shade, they spread a pleasant, glare-free and diffused light that illuminates the steps in a beautiful and even way.
Recessed spotlights can also be ideal for staircase lighting as they can be mounted parallel to each step, making the staircase structure more visible and turning the staircase into an aesthetic, architectural element as an extension of the interior design. Here you can mount them at ankle height to reduce glare and illuminate steps more clearly without the fear of bumping into them, as the recessed spots blend into the wall or stairs. However, before you decide on this solution, make sure you have the right sockets in the wall for the different types of spotlights.
If you choose a pendant lamp for staircase lighting, you get a decorative design element for your interior as well as a functional light source that beautifully and clearly illuminates the stairs. Here you can also place several pendants together for a more personal and unique touch to the interior design and at the same time get wider lighting.
Light with sensor
Should you choose sensor-controlled staircase lighting, you'll increase safety and comfort for you and your guests as the light turns on automatically when movement occurs. This can be hugely beneficial if you can't locate the switch in the dark or if you have your hands full and can't turn on the light. However, it is essential that you choose a light source that immediately reaches 100% brightness - such as an LED light - so you can clearly see the steps in front of you without having to wait unnecessarily for better lighting.
If you also have steps in the garden that can be difficult to see in the dark, you can use staircase lighting in the form of wall lights, bed lights or other outdoor lights with the relevant density rating (IP) and for example also with sensor. However, you need to be aware of the light intensity of the lamp, as the light can be more bright and blinding when it's dark, which can be disturbing and annoying for you and your guests - and at worst, cause the accidents you're trying to prevent.
