How Do You Hang Outdoor Tape Lights?

Outdoor tape lights are a great way to add some extra light and design to your outdoor space. Whether you’re looking to create romantic lighting for a dinner party, or just want to make your backyard more inviting, outdoor tape lights are an easy way to achieve the desired look. While hanging these lights may seem like a daunting task, it’s actually quite simple and can be accomplished in a few easy steps.

Measure and mount the power supply – Before you begin installing the outdoor tape lights, you’ll need to decide where you want the power supply to be mounted. This is usually on the wall or ceiling near an outlet.

Once you’ve determined where the power supply will be mounted, measure out your desired length of lights and mark off where they will be placed. After that’s done, use screws and anchors to securely mount the power supply.

Attach the mounting clips – Now that the power supply is in place, it’s time to attach the mounting clips. These clips should be placed every 24-36 inches along the length of tape lights that will be installed. This ensures that each light is securely held in place.

Connect and hang up the lights – Once all of the mounting clips have been attached, it’s time to connect and hang up your outdoor tape lights. Connect one end of each light strip into its connector on the power supply, then use zip ties or adhesive strips (depending on what type of mounting clips you used) to secure them in place. Finally, hang up each light strip so that it follows along with your previously marked outline.

Conclusion:

Hanging outdoor tape lights doesn’t have to be difficult or complicated. By following these simple steps – measuring and mounting a power supply; attaching mounting clips; connecting and hanging up each light strip – you can easily install these decorative fixtures in any outdoor area.
