The Reces Square LED Step Light is a compact recessed lighting solution designed to add subtle, high-quality illumination to walls and steps. Its square profile and refined finishes create a clean, architectural look that suits both modern and classic spaces. Built for durability, it is ideal for indoor and outdoor installations, including areas exposed to moisture. With tri-colour selection and dimming capability, it allows you to tailor the ambience to your space.
Choosing a driver
This light runs on 12v DC, so it needs a 12v LED driver (sometimes called a transformer). It cannot connect straight to 240v mains. The driver is wired in by a licensed electrician.
Allow 2.5w for each light and add about 20% headroom. 10 lights draw 25w, so they need a 30w 12v driver.

For bigger installs, split the lights across two or more drivers and place each driver close to its group. Long cable runs at low voltage lose brightness at the far end, so check your cable size with our voltage drop calculator.
Outdoors, use a weatherproof IP66 12v driver and mount it above ground, clear of garden beds and pooling water.
To dim, pair it with a dimmable 12v driver and a compatible dimmer.
