The purpose of lighting in a staircase

How to choose the right lighting for a staircase when the purpose of the lighting in the staircase is decorative and safety?

The need for light for safety

The main purpose of staircase lighting is to provide safety and security for users. When a staircase is well lit, it is easier to take the steps and move around the staircase safely. The top of the staircase and the bottom of the staircase are equipped with an overhead staircase luminaire.

The effect of the Led strip light on the interior

Lighting is also an important decorative element in a staircase. The right lighting can enhance the architectural details of a staircase and improve its appearance. With Led strip lighting, staircases can either be easy to illuminate (landing) or very difficult (stairs)

Staircase lighting: what to consider?

Size and shape of the staircase

The size and shape of a staircase have a major influence on the type of lighting that is best suited to it. A larger staircase requires more light than a smaller one. Curved staircases require light from different angles than straight staircases and are more difficult to make.

Home architecture

Home architecture is also a key factor when choosing staircase lighting. The lighting should be in keeping with the overall style of the home.

Light intensity

The intensity of the light in the staircase is a key factor for safety. Lighting that is too dim will make the staircase unsafe, while light that is too bright can cause haze and be unpleasant to the eyes. The power of a high intensity LED strip light for staircases is 3.6W or 7.2W per metre.

Energy efficiency

LED strip lighting is very energy efficient and has an impact when choosing staircase lighting. Energy efficient light sources can significantly reduce sawing costs.

How to choose the right lighting for your staircase?

To choose the right lighting, you need to know the size and shape of the staircase, and a light fitting that spreads light but does not stink.

Consider the size and shape of the staircase

The size and shape of the staircase will affect how and where the lighting can be placed. Straight staircases or staircases with false risers are easy to achieve, even with an LED strip under the riser. Spiral staircases, on the other hand, are very challenging to implement, butLED tape under the steps can stillbe done with some effort.Kierreportaiden valaiseminen led valonauhalla - LedStore

Choose your lighting solution carefully

A lighting strip is a great tool for staircase lighting. LED strip lights are energy efficient and durable, and can be used to create a moody, lamp-like light on a staircase.

Plan your lighting installation

Lighting installation is the key to staircase lighting. Plan how the lights will be installed on the staircase and how many light sources will be needed. This will help ensure that the light is evenly distributed on the staircase and that safety is guaranteed.

Choose the light shade carefully

The shade of the light plays a major role in the atmosphere of the staircase. Pale white light creates a cosy and lamp-like atmosphere, while cold white light gives a modern and sharp look. When choosing a light arm, consider the atmosphere you want to create in your staircase. Or choose the CCT available led strip light.
