PATIO AND DECK · RALEIGH AND HOLLY SPRINGS, NC

Patio and Deck Lighting

GROOVEE Lighting installs patio and deck lighting around Raleigh and Holly Springs, NC: lights under deck railings, on steps, over seating areas and along fences. The back of the house gets the same written design and install as the roofline.

What's included

Railings, steps and seating areas, lit for evenings outside.

Patio lighting and deck lighting turn the back of the house into a room you can use after dark. Light goes under the railing cap, into each step, over the table and along the fence line, so every edge is easy to see and the space stays comfortable to sit in.

Deck railings

Warm light under the railing cap along every run

Deck steps

Step lights set into each tread or riser

Patio

Light over seating and dining areas, plus bed lights around the edge

Fences

Post and fence lights that frame the yard

How it is designed

Every edge lit, every seat comfortable.

Deck railing lights come first, because the railing marks the edge of the deck and frames the view out. Deck step lights follow, one per tread, so the stairs read clearly from the yard and from the door.

On the patio, the goal is soft light where people sit and brighter light where they walk. Bed lights and fence lights around the edge give the space a boundary and keep the yard from falling into black past the pavers.

Railing and step lights can run warm white every night or switch to color for a party or a holiday. Control options are specified in the written design.

Pricing

Priced by the run, the step and the area.

The price follows the length of railing, the number of steps and the areas you want lit.

Color-capable railing light and fence runs add to the design. A single seating area takes less.

Questions

Frequently Asked Questions

Can you add lights to my existing deck railing?

Yes. Railing lights mount under the railing cap of the deck you already have, and the cable runs along the framing out of sight.

Do you install deck step lights?

Yes. Step lights go into each tread or riser so the stairs are clear from the yard and the door.

What kind of patio lighting do you install?

Soft light over seating and dining areas, bed and path lights around the edge of the patio, and fence or post lights to frame the yard.

Can deck lights change color?

Color-capable railing and step lights can run warm white every night and switch to color on a schedule or from an app.

Do you light fences too?

Yes. Post-cap and fence lights are part of the patio design when the fence frames the space.

How is patio and deck lighting priced?

By the length of railing, the number of steps and the areas lit. The written quote comes after the estimate visit, before you commit to anything.
