Description
A 5-inch low-voltage LED step light for outdoor stairs, patios, and walkways, finished in matte black stainless steel with an etched lens.
The Taper series from Hinkley blends seamlessly into architectural elements, offering a sleek, minimalist design that radiates contemporary cool. Its recessed integrated LEDs direct light downward with a gentle gradient, grazing the tapered stainless steel housing. Built with durable 316 stainless steel, this fixture is suitable for wet locations and provides superior strength in harsh environments.
Best for
- Outdoor stairs and steps, recessed into masonry or wood for subtle illumination
- Patios and decks, mounted along edges or walls for safety and ambiance

Not ideal for
- Spaces requiring bright task lighting - this is a 160-lumen accent light
