ᐅ Staircase Lighting – Which Options Would You Recommend?

Created on: 15 Nov 2018 10:22

Hello everyone,

I am currently marking all the electrical boxes and switches. Now I have reached the staircase and was wondering whether a standard 60mm (2.4 inches) electrical box for the lighting should be installed there or if something special is needed. I looked around online but didn’t find a clear answer. Either the lighting looks cheap or it is very expensive (over 100 euros per piece).

Do you have any recommendations for me? I am also open to some kind of downlight.

Thanks and best regards

Looks really great! How do you control the lighting? Manually or automatically?

That depends on the wall construction you have. We have a timber frame house with drywall partitions. It was straightforward in our case—I used a 3m (10 ft) straightedge for the 5m (16 ft) staircase, placed it along the edges of the steps, and then routed along the surface of the straightedge with a router set to the correct depth. The result is a perfectly fitting groove in the wall. Now I just have to install the trim and LED strips this weekend.

Hey, what distance did you choose between the LED strip and the steps? Judging from the picture, I would estimate about 10cm (4 inches)? Is that distance optimal for illuminating the steps?

Here is a similar solution with vertical LED strips flush-mounted in the plaster. They are powered with 24V from the electrical distribution board.
