Light up your composite deck like a pro
In Quebec, extending the outdoor season means well-thought-out lighting. Whether you choose a Fiberon, TimberTech, Trex, or TruNorth composite deck, each light fixture adds a touch of ambiance, safety, and charm to your outdoor living space. Discover our 16 ideas to transform your deck in Quebec into a nocturnal oasis.
1. Mood Lighting
To create a soft and welcoming atmosphere, choose warm and adjustable light sources.
- Gorgeous Globe Lights: Hang strings of globe lights above your dining area for a "European bistro" effect.
- Real or Artificial Candlelight: Opt for battery-operated or citronella wax candles to keep mosquitoes away and create subdued lighting.
- Paper Lanterns: Affordable and colorful, these paper lanterns give a festive look without breaking the bank.
- String Lights around posts: Wrap string lights around the columns of your pergola for continuous sparkle.
2. Safety and Practicality
Ensure safe movement while highlighting key areas of your composite deck.
- Ground-Level Lighting: Bollards or recessed ground lights illuminate pathways and edges.
- Recessed Lighting: Integrate LEDs into the steps or risers of your Trex deck to minimize the risk of falls.
- Soffit Lights: Under a second story or an awning, recessed lights by Trex RainEscape offer diffuse and efficient lighting.
- Spotlights and Floodlights: Discreet spotlights highlight your pool, fire pit, or green wall.
3. Decorative Elements and Heat Sources
Combine design and functionality for a deck in Quebec that invites relaxation regardless of the temperature.
- Outdoor Chandelier: Suspended under a roof, it creates an elegant focal point without encroaching on floor space.
- Pendant Lights: Different styles of hanging lights in glass, rattan, or metal, to combine for an eclectic effect.
- Portable Lamps and Lanterns: Battery-operated or solar lamps to move light as desired.
- Fire Pits and Patio Heaters: A central fire pit or an infrared patio heater brings light, warmth, and conviviality.
