Are you looking to create a serious WOW factor in your outdoor area? Brilliant! You've arrived at our selection of Outdoor LED Neon Flexible, a tough-as-nails lighting that has all the visual awe of neon, but is able to withstand anything the British weather throws at it. This collection is also an ideal choice if you're looking for reliable Outdoor garden lights or want to update your lighting setup with long-lasting outdoor LED lights.

Built for British Weather Conditions

Our outdoor LED Neon Flex is specifically designed to withstand the elements and still provide the stunning continuous lighting effect, which makes neon attractive. In contrast to the traditional glass-based neon (which can break at the first frost), the versatile, weatherproof beauties will keep shining through snow, rain, as well as whatever else the gorgeous UK weather throws our way. They are perfect with other lighting fixtures for outdoor use and enhance paths and patios as well as landscape features with a crisp, modern light.

What Makes Our Outdoor Neon Flex Different

What is it that makes the Outdoor Neon Flex special? First of all, they're secured with IP65 up to IP68 ratings - which means they're completely dust-tight, and can withstand powerful water jets, or even submersion. The robust silicone housing does more than just shield the LEDs inside, but can also disperse the light to give the smooth, glowing, dot-free glow that you've been looking for. This level of dependability makes them a perfect alternative to conventional outdoor LED lights used in residential and commercial spaces.

A Wide Range of Colour and Style Options

We've got an amazing selection of options available - ranging from different colours that range from traditional warm whites to vivid reds and blues, as well as RGB versions that change colours with a touch of the remote. If you're looking to light up your Outdoor garden lights path or create an eye-catching shop signage, or add a bit of sparkle to your bar's beer garden, our Outdoor Neon Flex LED Neon Flex is built to shine all year round without needing constant maintenance or replacement. Many customers combine them with their existing outdoor lighting to create a more sophisticated and visually appealing appearance.

Frequently Asked Questions

Best waterproofing methods for outdoor neon flex

Use IP-rated neon flex plus IP-rated junction boxes/cable glands, and fully seal every cut end, connector, and join with the correct end caps, gaskets, and neutral-cure silicone. Add strain relief and drip loops so water can’t wick down cables into terminations.

How to mount outdoor neon flex on brick or wood

For brick, use masonry plugs/screws with mounting clips or a channel; for wood, use stainless screws into sound timber (often with pilot holes) and keep clip spacing tight enough to hold curves. Avoid relying on adhesive alone outdoors unless it’s a proven exterior-grade system.

Recommended IP rating for permanent outdoor installs

For permanent, exposed installs, IP67 is a safer baseline (IP68 if there’s any chance of pooling/standing water), paired with UV-stable silicone and properly sealed end caps. IP65 can work in sheltered areas, but terminations become the weak point if not sealed perfectly.

How to seal end caps and connectors outdoors

Use the manufacturer’s end caps/gaskets, then seal the interface with neutral-cure silicone or the specified potting/sealant and add adhesive-lined heat shrink where appropriate. The goal is a water-tight seal plus strain relief so movement doesn’t break the seal over time.

Can outdoor neon flex be cut and rejoined safely

Yes cut only at marked cut points and rejoin using the correct waterproof connector/joiner system (or solder + proper resealing if supported). The join must be mechanically supported and fully resealed to prevent water ingress and corrosion.

How to apply silicone gaskets at cut ends for IP67 garden borders

Seat the gasket cleanly on a dry, square cut end, then install the end cap firmly so the gasket compresses evenly. Finish by sealing the cap edge (if specified) to block capillary wicking into the housing.

What enclosures protect cable feeds from rain on exposed fences?

Use IP65–IP67 junction boxes with proper cable glands (or conduit) and a drip loop before the entry point. This keeps water off the terminations and prevents wind-driven rain from tracking into the enclosure.

Why crimp brackets before sliding anti-skid clips on neon ends?

Crimping the bracket first gives a solid mechanical “stop” so the anti-skid clip can’t creep along the silicone over time. It also improves strain relief at the end where movement is most likely.

What 80mm minimum bend radius prevents silicone cracking on curves?

Keeping bends at or above the rated minimum (often around 80mm, depending on product) prevents overstressing the silicone and internal strip, which can cause whitening, cracking, or uneven light. Avoid twisting while bending, as torsion is a common cause of damage.

How do aluminum channels secure neon flex unidirectionally on steps?

A channel physically locks the neon flex in a fixed orientation so the illuminated face stays consistent and doesn’t roll or twist. It also protects edges from impacts and helps keep lines straight on stair runs.

Which screws through mounting pieces hold best on timber pergolas?

Stainless steel screws (A2/A4) sized for the clip holes and timber thickness usually hold best outdoors and resist rust staining. Pre-drilling helps prevent splitting and improves long-term grip.

When to use interlink boards with double gaskets for 20m+ runs?

Use them when you need multiple joins over long distances and want a serviceable connection that stays weather-tight. Double gaskets add redundancy against water ingress as seals age or materials expand/contract.

How does polycarbonate sleeving prevent outdoor joint corrosion?

It creates a protective barrier that limits water, salt, and oxygen reaching the conductors, reducing corrosion and green copper buildup. It also adds mechanical protection against abrasion and UV exposure around the joint.

What tests confirm track fit before permanent adhesive fixing?

Dry-fit the full run to confirm alignment, bend behavior, and clip spacing, then power-test a short section to ensure there’s no twisting or shadowing. If using adhesive, do a small test bond on the surface first to confirm adhesion in your weather conditions.

What IP Rating Do I Need for Outdoor LED Neon Flex?

For most outdoor installs, IP67 is a strong choice because it’s better sealed against heavy rain and splashes; choose IP68 if water can pool or sit on the product. Also prioritize UV-stable materials and properly sealed ends, because terminations are often where failures start.

How Long Will Outdoor LED Neon Flex Last in British Weather?

With good heat management and correctly sealed joins/end caps, outdoor neon flex commonly lasts years, but lifespan varies with UV exposure, winter freezes, and how well terminations are waterproofed. Poor sealing and water ingress are the biggest causes of early failures.

Can I Install Outdoor LED Neon Flex Myself?

Many people DIY it because it’s low-voltage, but you still need careful planning for mounting, correct power supply/driver selection, and weatherproof terminations. If any mains wiring is involved, it’s safest to use a qualified electrician.

What’s the Difference Between Indoor and Outdoor LED Neon Flex?

Outdoor versions use higher IP sealing, tougher jackets, and often better UV resistance, while indoor versions may be IP20 and not designed for water exposure. Outdoor-rated models also typically have more robust end caps/connectors.

Do You Sell Coloured Outdoor LED Neon Flex?

Coloured options are widely available, including single-colour, tunable white, RGB, and RGBW versions depending on the effect you want. The main thing is matching the colour type to the controller/driver and ensuring it’s outdoor IP-rated.

How Do I Power Outdoor LED Neon Flex?

Use a regulated constant-voltage power supply that matches the product (commonly 12V or 24V) and size it to total wattage with headroom. For longer runs, plan power injection or shorter feeds so brightness stays even.

Can Outdoor LED Neon Flex Handle Freezing Temperatures?

Many outdoor-rated neon flex products are designed for cold weather, but performance depends on the silicone formulation and installation (especially bend radius and sealed ends). In freezing conditions, avoid tight bends and ensure joins/end caps are fully sealed to prevent moisture expansion damage.

Do You Sell Outdoor LED Neon Flex With Controllers?

Controller bundles are common (especially for RGB/RGBW or addressable effects), and you can also pair neon flex with a compatible controller bought separately. Compatibility depends on whether your neon flex is analog (RGB/RGBW) or digital/addressable.

What Are the Most Popular Uses for Outdoor LED Neon Flex?

Common uses include garden borders, pathways, fences, pergolas, step outlines, house trim accents, and signage-style features where a smooth “continuous line” look is desired. It’s popular anywhere you want the neon aesthetic without glass or high voltage.
