Spike Lights

Spike lights push straight into garden beds and lawns to highlight plants, trees, sculptures and pathways. Easy to install and reposition, they're one of the most flexible ways to bring a garden to life after dark, with adjustable heads to aim light exactly where you want it.

Types of Spike Lights

Adjustable garden spikes tilt and swivel to uplight trees or graze textured walls, while fixed spots suit path edges and bed markers. Low-voltage 12V spike lights are safe and simple to run through planting, and 240V fittings deliver more output for larger trees and features. GU10 and MR16 globe options make replacement straightforward. Combine spike lights with bollard lights and pathway lighting for a complete garden scheme.

Choosing a Spike Light

Warm 3000K light flatters foliage and paving; a tighter beam angle spotlights a single plant, while wider beams wash a hedge or wall. Because spikes sit in wet soil, choose at least IP44, and IP65 for exposed or irrigated beds; in coastal gardens specify 316 marine-grade stainless or coated aluminium. For a dramatic effect, cluster several spikes around a feature tree and uplight from different angles. Pair with spot lights, flood lights and the wider garden lighting range.

Spike Light FAQs

How do I install a spike light? Simply push the spike into the soil, connect to a 12V transformer or 240V supply, and angle the head — no digging or concrete needed.

What IP rating do garden spike lights need? IP44 is the minimum for planted beds; choose IP65 for exposed or irrigated positions to keep water out.
