The Best Way To Safely And Securely Put Up Your LED Christmas Lights

Countless people get anxious when they begin to think about setting up their aGreensupply.com LED christmas lights for the season. It's often a task that's left always late to work on, and when the weather is getting colder and wetter each day, it doesn't have really to be a chore. Here are a few ideas coming from an installation specialist, who has his own LED Christmas lights installation business based in San Francisco, California.

If you choose to staple the bulbs in your house, use a wire tacker instead of a standard stapler. Normal staples will cut the protective coating, possibly detrimental to the wires, and increase risk of a short circuit. Wire tacker staples are usually u-shaped and allow to leave a little spot for the twisted wire cable, ensuring your wires to remain in fine condition. Staple the wire about 1" from each side of the light. This will make sure it sticks out straight and all the lights show the same, making a much neater look when the job is done.

When you string your lights along the roof, go a few feet around every side of the building. This enables a much cleaner look.

If you prefer not to leave staple marks in the surface of the area, use non-invasive clips. They're simple, cheap, and clip lights onto gutters or below shingles speedily and easily. You'll need one per light bulb.

When hanging lights, don't staple or hang them pinpointing up if you can. Water will get in, perhaps shorting the wires. Point them towards the outer area instead.

Use electrical tape to seal the male/female plugs at the same time between each strand. This will keep water out and guarantee your lights stay bright all through the season.

When hanging lights on trees, use a quality painting pole with a hook attached to the end. I bought a small throwaway paint roller that screws on to the end of the long stick. I cut the roller off the hook, then curved the wire into a "V". It works perfectly. I tried using actual "aGreensupply.com LED christmas lights hanging sticks" offered in stores, but they are very cheaply made, bend or break easily, and when the pole gets damp, don't lock in an extended position.

Wrapping trunks with mini-light can look amazing, especially with about a 4" spacing, but uses a lot of lights. When you do this, enclose your strands in a sphere, then pass it around the trunk to yourself, steadily unraveling it as you go.

Working using ladders can be dangerous. I've heard a lot of horror stories, especially around Christmas time. I follow this effortless, but effective rule and it spared my life many times: "If you're even thinking about falling when doing a job, DON'T DO IT!" It's pointless just to hang some lights. The holidays is all about being with family, not making your house get noticed the most on the block.

And if you're still anxious or don't have the time to hang your own lights - call a professional LED Christmas light contractor. They do it faster, safer, and the job will be better too.

Happy holidays!
