Begin with the staircase
Gather dimensions, the number of steps and finish materials to inform product selection and lighting placement.
Residential stairs
Stair tread lighting
Plan step-edge lighting, motion detection and controls around the staircase dimensions and renovation stage.
Content previewUse this page as a layout reference. Final configurations depend on the site and product models.
Before planning the layout
Dimensions, usage and site conditions determine where fittings go and what the system needs.
Consider the direction of travel
Use the routes up and down the stairs to discuss sensor placement and the preferred lighting behavior.
Plan installation early
Check power, wiring and mounting locations. Connection details must follow the confirmed product documentation.
Product configuration
Three parts of a stair lighting system
Light strips, controllers and sensors provide illumination, control and detection. Match their power, interfaces and control architecture.
- 01
Sensors: detect movement
Detect entry at the top and bottom; check orientation and obstructions on site.
- 02
Controller: operate the lights
The controller manages direction, duration and switch-off using its supported modes.
- 03
Light strips: illuminate steps
A line of light follows the treads; check shielding and glare against the finish.
PLANNING CHECKLIST
Site information checklist
Include these details when asking about fittings and placement.
- Individual step widths, total steps, turns and landing dimensions
- Finish materials, recesses or mounting surfaces and photos of existing wiring
- Approach directions and sensor positions
- Accessible power-supply and controller locations
- Desired always-on, sequential or night-time behavior
