Mains Powered Garden Spike Lights – Reliable Outdoor Lighting with Powerful Illumination
Mains powered garden spike lights are a top choice for homeowners and landscape designers looking for a long-lasting, powerful, and maintenance-free outdoor lighting solution. Unlike solar or battery-powered lights, mains spike lights connect directly to your home’s electrical supply, offering consistent brightness every night—regardless of weather or daylight hours.
These outdoor spike lights are perfect for illuminating garden features, trees, pathways, driveways, borders, and patios, adding both safety and beauty to your landscape after dark. Their durable construction and weatherproof design ensure they can withstand the elements year-round.
What Are Mains Powered Garden Spike Lights?
Mains powered spike lights are outdoor lights fitted with ground spikes that plug into a 230V electrical supply (UK standard). They offer higher brightness and better long-term reliability than solar options and are ideal for both residential and commercial garden projects.
Key Benefits of Mains Powered Spike Lights

Enjoy brighter, more dependable lighting compared to solar-powered alternatives—perfect for large or dark garden areas.
Ideal for Long-Term Use
Once installed, mains spike lights require minimal maintenance and won’t fade or stop working during winter.
Weatherproof and Durable
Built with IP65+ rated casings to resist rain, frost, and dirt—ideal for year-round outdoor use.
Directional and Adjustable
Most models feature adjustable heads, allowing you to focus light on specific plants, trees, or architectural features.
Wide Range of Styles
Choose from modern black finishes, stainless steel, or rustic designs to complement your garden aesthetic.
Installation and Safety
Mains garden spike lights should be installed with weatherproof outdoor cabling and appropriate IP-rated connectors or junction boxes. We always recommend installation by a qualified electrician for safety and to ensure compliance with UK regulations.
To make installation easier, some mains-powered spike lights come with plug-and-play options or low-voltage transformers, offering flexibility without compromising on quality.
