Deck Lighting FAQs

Can I install my own deck lights?

Installing the lights is as easy as plugging in Christmas lights thanks to our plug-and-play system. While the different parts and pieces may first seem as if it requires an electrician, this is definitely a DIY-friendly installation.

Can you put lights in composite decking?

Yes! Trex offers recessed lights that can be inserted into the decking for applications like creating a perimeter around the space and lighting a dock or pathway.

How do I light my deck at night?

There are a number of ways to light your deck at night. The first would be simply to plug your transformer into your outlet. If you’re looking for a more hands-free approach – use the photocell timer provided with your transformer. This photocell timer has multiple options including setting your lights to illuminate from dusk until dawn, or to be on for two, four, or up to 10 hours. Another way to light your deck at night would be to use our WiFi Controller. The new WiFi Controller allows you to control from anywhere up to 60 watts of LED lights.

How high should deck lights be?

Deck light height will depend on which light you are installing and your height preference. We do not have set requirements for light placement.

How much does it cost to install deck lights?

The cost of adding Trex deck lights varies depending upon which lights are being installed or how many. Lights start around $25 each. Wiring, splitters, transformers and timers will add to the cost.

Deck lighting is 100% worth it. You’re increasing your usable time on the deck by opening yourself up to outdoor living at night. In addition, our lights come with a seven-year warranty while the transformer/timer is warrantied for three years.
