The porch has no railing and it is very dark outside at night. Although there is lighting overhead, we needed to have the steps and the small lip from the sidewalk lit so that no one falls or trips. It is just two steps to get either up or down, but in the evening, especially when one’s eyes are not adjusting well to the darkness, it can be a little treacherous. The lights are small and triangular fitting into the steps without interfering with anyone’s up or down progress.
The lights were purchased on Amazon – https://amzn.to/3PZhLQ9.
