Lowe's 14 Best Early Black Friday 2026 Deals Worth Shopping Now

We may receive a commission on purchases made from links.

Lowe's kicks off the holiday season this year with an early-bird Black Friday sale. From tools to appliances, Lowe's promises deals on a wide range of items that would make great gifts or liven up your home just in time for the festive season. We looked at products such as ladders, tools, lights, security cameras, and more, and found the best deals on many popular items.

For this review, we selected things we love, such as oscillating saws and electricians' screwdrivers, and things we don't love much, like Chamberlain garage door keypads. Some products we felt good about recommending, like Werner A-frame ladders and Dewalt miter saw stands. In other cases, we trusted the reviewers to reassure us that products like Fanimation fans and LG French door refrigerators will do their jobs well. In all, the products we feature average about 44 percent off, which we think is pretty spectacular. Please note that all prices are current as of publication, but Lowe's prices may vary by store location, and the sale dates for each product may change at Lowe's discretion.

Ladders have become more complicated than seems strictly possible for such a simple, utilitarian device. Newer models telescope, fold into scaffolding, and asymmetrically lean on things in ways that are positively unnerving. If you want to go old-school, a good old-fashioned Werner 6-foot A-frame fiberglass ladder can be purchased for $79 during the pre-Black Friday madness. That's $70 off, and what you get in return is exactly what you picture when you close your eyes and imagine one. It's a solid, dependable, highly rated ladder (based on customer reviews) that gets the job done.

One of the first steps in any DIY job seems to be setting up a cutting station. Save yourself time on every future DIY project by ponying up $149 for Dewalt's adjustable aluminum miter saw stand. You're  not only saving time on every job, you're also saving $100 on this purchase if you buy it during the sale. It only weighs 35 pounds but can support 500. To save even more time, you can easily clamp stop blocks along the rails for precise, repeated cuts.

Every DIYer who has ever bought an oscillating saw has probably realized, at some point, that they have no idea how they every finished certain jobs in the past without it. Oscillating multi-tools like the Dewalt XR 20-volt Max ($99, regularly $199) can work in extremely tight spaces and they have a knack for flush-cutting in a way you can't with other saws. This brushless model is efficient, so batteries last far longer than you might expect. But, it has to be said, the blades still last far less time than you expect.

The 6-inch wet-rated Utilitech canless LED is half-off right now, and you can pick up a 6-pack today for $59.99. They're switchable and dimmable, and the round light housing itself is about the thickness of your ceiling drywall, giving you tons of installation flexibility. You can control the lights' color temperature in a range between 2,700K and 6,500K. At 850 lumens (65-watt equivalent), they're plenty bright for any room. The 4-inch versions are also currently on sale.

If you can overlook the company's habit of giving things cutesy names and calling things "greige," the Fanimation Blitz ($139.97, regularly $279.98) indoor/outdoor ceiling fan might be just what you need to prepare for those ever-warmer spring days that will be here all too soon. This 56-inch, 7-blade fan comes with a remote and offers 16 speeds that can push as much air as 6,610 CFM. Only the black model is available at this price, so if your heart is set on greige, you're out of luck.

Somewhere along the way, some genius evolved the standard 4-in-1 electrician's screwdriver into this positively brilliant all-purpose 16-in-1 tool that accepts standard quarter-inch hex bits and — here's the best part — comes with the two most common nut drivers as well in the form of a two-sided "flip socket." That means no switching tools to take a washing machine's panels off appliances, working with metal siding or roofs, installing hose clamps, and lots more. All for $19.98 ($11 off MSRP). The ratcheting 11-in-1 version is also on sale right now.

If YouTube is to be believed, no amount of comedy, drama, or crime produced by Hollywood can keep up with what Ring doorbell cameras manage to capture every day. And now you can buy into the world of 2K crime dramedy for a mere $44.99 ($55 off). You'll have to charge the battery via USB-C, but that's true of half of the things we own. Then you'll be all set to foil porch pirates, capture wildlife gone wild, and watch the happenings on your front stoop.

Of course, all the action doesn't happen at your front door, so it's good to have a few security cameras around for additional sightings of inept robbers, cats chasing bears, moose chasing everything, dogs forgetting they can't fly, and that county inspector trying to assess your home for property tax purposes. This Blink security camera is integrated with Alexa, and features all the usual goodies like motion detection, an audible siren, and a sharp live feed. The unusual goodie is its price: $33.99 ($66 off).

Lowe's has a few LVP and laminate flooring designs that are over 50% off for Black Friday, including this light and realistic honey-colored oak luxury vinyl plank that's currently available for $2.99 per square foot. This LVP's texture and micro bevel contribute to its realism, and it looks perfectly at home in everything from as Scandinavian design scheme to a beach house look. These Stainmaster 9-inch planks come with a millimeter of acoustic underlayment built-in, and so require no additional underlayment for installation.

No matter how easy the LVP is to install, if you're of a certain age you will eventually find that standing up to make the next cut simply isn't worth it. Any DIY or gardening project that requires you to spend a lot of time on your knees takes its toll eventually. The non-marring Kobalt hard shell knee pads provide a lot of protection, especially considering the current $9.98 price tag, down from $19.98. One size fits all, via both elastic straps that are probably comfortable and hook-and-loop closures that probably aren't.

If you're one of the bazillion people who are angry with Chamberlain about their myQ platform and their seemingly endless string of bad decisions, our condolences, but there is a little good news. You can, for the moment, buy Chamberlain's myQ smart garage door opener keypad for $29.99. That's $50 off MSRP, and you get all the smart stuff: smart alerts, personalized codes, temporary or scheduled access, and a video view or your driveway (or whatever you point it).

If you looked at the pros and cons of those futuristic invisible cooktops and decided it's not for you, Whirlpool offers a 30-inch gas cooktop that looks exactly like a gas cooktop. This model is on sale for $629 (from $1,166), while the 36-inch version, other colors, and induction burner models aren't reduced nearly as much. But the four-burner 30-inch Whirlpool cooktop looks sleek, pleasant to use, and very roomy.

If you're further defying the invisible kitchen trend, you might want to check out this self-cleaning, smudge-proof electric wall oven from Frigidaire, currently on sale for $1,099 ($900 off MSRP.) This oven has 4.8 stars and 30 reviews, and features a convection oven with 5.3 cubic feet of interior space. Half-hour steam-clean cycles make it fast and easy to clean after cooking a big meal, like your Thanksgiving feast. The oven also features a single-fan air fryer, and the touch controls include a cooking timer.

If you're ready to give LG another chance at selling you a French door refrigerator, there's hardly a better time than now. This particular stainless steel, fingerprint-proof model is $1,999, a whopping $1,400 off, but several LG fridges are among Lowe's early bird black Friday deals. Early models had challenges with LG's linear compressors failing within a few years, and if you're still wondering if LG refrigerators are any good, don't neglect that common issue.
