Step lights.

Traditional recessed step lights would look beautiful but maybe a difficult/more involved installation - it would involve cutting and removing central portions of the brick risers and figuring out how best to run the wire.

Either hardscape lights or directional path lights would likely be most ideal for illuminating this stair case. Rotatable LED hardscape lights could be installed on every other ledge and slightly rotated to direct light more towards the step and the wire would be easier to run and bury off the side of the staircase compared to traditional step lights.

Directional path lights could also be used - such as the Elevator Path & Flood Light or the Mini All-Star™ Innovator Path Light. Placed off to the sides of the staircase, these would allow for brighter, wider illumination on the stairs if preferred over the more subtle output from a step or hardscape light.

 

Our rotatable LED hardscape lights come with pre-drilled screw holes for surface mounting - granted the lip can accommodate the width, we offer various sizes as well (3",6",12", 18"). So, essentially you'd mount it under the lip and also subsequently run the lead wire along the same lip to exit off the side of the step and then either be directly buried or ran in conduit into the ground from there, then up or down the side of the staircase (whichever way the transformer/hub would be). Wire clips (preferably screw style ones over adhesive) would help with securing the wire under the lip and also on the sides as well - to prevent any dangling wires on the steps.
