Integrating LED lighting into modern glass railing designs

Modern glass railing systems are a stunning addition to homes and businesses around the world. Millions have fallen in love with their elegance and sleek designs. But if you thought that was the peak, that a glass railing installation couldn’t get any better, keep reading!

LED lighting has been trending the last few years because it adds functional and attractive options to how we light our homes. It also uses less electricity and lasts longer. This trend is growing as more people experience the difference between softer, ambient light versus the more ubiquitous, soulless, and sometimes harsh overhead lighting system in most places today.

Integrating LED lighting into your glass railing allows you to take advantage of this shift to softer, more layered light levels that create relaxed and sophisticated environments. It’s not just a lot more comfortable for our senses, it looks a whole lot more natural and pleasing to the eye.

 Glass railing lets in light already due to its transparent nature, but adding LED lights takes it up a notch. The warmer, more subdued illumination makes for an inviting atmosphere that is as safe as it is magical.

To add LED lights to a glass railing installation affix LED strips along the top or base, or embed them into the frame. There are limited cases for DIY projects, however if your railing is outside, or if you want dimmable lights, or need to be sure you have enough power to run them, or that all the wiring is appropriately hidden, it’s best to hire professionals who will take care of all of that. They can also design your glass railing installation to incorporate LED lights right from the start.
