Styles of Decks

Platform, Raised, and Freestanding Decks

Platform, raised, and freestanding decks benefit from deck lighting that defines edges and creates ambiance after dark. Skirting options including lattice skirting, vinyl skirting, and horizontal or vertical boards can be accented with low-profile fixtures.

Multi-Level Decks

Multi-level decks offer layered lighting from step lights between tiers to ambient fixtures above and below. Strategic placement creates depth and continuity across the space.

Curved Decks and Privacy Screens

Curved decks use lighting along the rail line to trace the structure's shape after dark. Privacy screens using solid wood panels, faux stone panels, or stone and brick skirting can be backlit for drama.

Cantilevered and Rooftop Decks

Cantilevered and rooftop decks use perimeter lighting to define the space and extend evening usability. Fixture placement accounts for wind exposure on elevated structures.

Screened Porch and Covered Deck

Screened porches and covered decks use overhead and wall-mounted fixtures for consistent illumination. Both styles allow creative layering of ambient and accent lighting.

Pool and Spa Decks

Pool and spa deck lighting must be rated for wet environments and positioned safely around water. Well-placed fixtures create a resort atmosphere while maintaining clear visibility.
