Hi guys,

I am looking for your preferance for low voltage lighting. I am doing an Azek "show" deck on my house and plan to incorporate lighting for under benches, stairs and plan to do an inlaid circular/compass design which I had hoped to put some lighting in there as well. The yard is beautifully landscaped and I may also redo the lighting in the yard as well.

I have worked with Malibu but Home Depot distributes and their stock and expertise is questionable at best. I am in Alberta Canada FYI.

On another note...does anyone know anything about an aluminum deck product called "Drylock"?

Thanks guys

I don't claim to be a professional lighting installer...thats why I posted the request. I am a professional deck builder however.

Attached pics are of the deck I did with Malibu (sorry, no dusk photos). I did this one early this year. My experience with lighting is minimal but I am always striving to set myself apart from all of the average deck builders locally. Quality is #1.

I have been to the sites posted by everyone and I am blown away/excited by the options that are out there.

I love this site and really appreciate the feedback from everyone. It is only going to make me that much better going into next year.

Thanks guys/gals

Hey Mark,

No lining, plenty of drainage underneath right down to the ground. This particular customer wanted to just drop pots in and remove for winter. Honestly, I have only done a few decks with planters and everyone of them, I give the option for both lined/drop in, and all go for the pot drop in. I am also not a gardener so I don't know if it is to do with our climate...harsh winter and in general wild climate changes in the spring.

My wife is really into the flower thing. She has our yard looking awesome. She says never plant anything until our May long weekend is over. Even then it is risky. I think we may have had just about freezing temps at night in May this year...Long and short, I guess they choose drop in method so if we do get freezing nights, they can take pots indoors?

Thanks
