Product Information
Create safer, more visible staircases with the MS-AL-6525-A Uplight LED Stair Edge Lighting Profile. Unlike downlight stair profiles that provide subtle, indirect backlighting, this channel is engineered for direct light navigation. It casts light diagonally upward, clearly illuminating the path for anyone ascending the stairs. This makes it an ideal solution for both residential and commercial public lighting applications where safety is paramount.
Constructed from durable 6063-T5 aluminum alloy, this profile is built to last. The surface features integrated serrations that provide an effective anti-slip grip, further enhancing safety. Inside, the channel accommodates various types of 12mm wide LED strip lights, while the included PC opal diffuser ensures the light is soft, even, and free from harsh glare. Simple to install with screws, it provides a clean, professional finish to any stairway.
If you’re concerned that direct lighting might cause glare, you can pair it with our CRI 98 full-spectrum LED strip lighting.
Key Features
Direct Uplight Illumination
Casts light upwards to provide clear, direct navigational guidance for ascending stairs, improving visibility and safety.
Integrated Anti-Slip Surface
Features a serrated top surface that provides excellent grip, reducing the risk of slips in homes, offices, or public venues.
Complete Installation Kit
Each length includes one aluminum channel, one diffuser cover, and two end caps for a professional and finished installation.
Why Choose This Uplight Stair Profile?
- Prioritizes Safety: The combination of upward-facing light and an anti-slip tread makes this profile ideal for environments where safety is a primary concern, such as homes with children or elderly residents, and high-traffic commercial stairs.
- Clear Navigational Cue: While downlighting creates ambiance, uplighting provides a functional, direct signal to the user, clearly defining each step's edge from below.
- Robust & Long-Lasting: The 6063-T5 aluminum alloy offers superior durability and thermal management compared to PVC, ensuring a long service life for both the profile and the LED strip within.

How to Install This LED Stair Profile
- Measure the width of your stair tread and cut the aluminum profile to the desired length using a miter saw with a fine-toothed blade.
- Secure the aluminum profile firmly to the stair using appropriate screws (not included).
- Measure and cut your 12mm LED strip light to the same length as the profile.
- Peel the adhesive backing from the LED strip and press it firmly into the bottom of the channel.
- Connect the LED strip wiring to a compatible low-voltage LED Power Supply. If desired, wire a dimmer between the power supply and the strip.
- Snap the PC opal diffuser into place on the front of the channel.
- Press the end caps onto both ends of the profile for a clean, finished look.
- Always ensure the power is off before cutting or wiring the LED strips.
- For outdoor use, ensure you use an appropriately IP-rated LED strip and seal the end caps with silicone for water resistance.
Frequently Asked Questions
Q: What is the main difference between this uplight profile and a downlight version?
A:This uplight profile directs light upwards to provide direct, clear illumination of the stair path for safety. Downlight profiles cast light downwards onto the tread for more subtle, ambient accent lighting.
Q: Is the surface slippery when wet?
A:No, the profile is designed with a serrated, textured surface that provides an anti-slip grip, increasing safety even in damp conditions.
Q: Can I use this for outdoor stairs?
A:Yes, the 6063-T5 aluminum is very durable. For outdoor use, we recommend pairing it with an IP67-rated waterproof LED strip and sealing the end caps with silicone.
Q: Do I need to buy end caps and a diffuser separately?
A:No, each length of the profile comes as a complete kit with one PC opal diffuser and two end caps.
Q: How is the profile mounted to the stairs?
A:It is designed for surface mounting and is typically secured to the edge of the stair tread using screws.
Q: Are the LED strip lights and power supply included?
A:No, the LED strip and power supply are sold separately. This allows you to choose the color temperature and brightness that best suits your project.
Q: What lengths can I order?
A:This profile is available in standard lengths of 1 meter, 2 meters, and 2.44 meters (8ft), as well as a 20cm sample piece.
