How to Install Deck String Lights for a Cozy Outdoor Space

It is hopefully/finally getting nice outside in Minnesota! You know what that means! Time to finally get outside and use our decks/patios! If you need help furnishing your deck check out our Amazon shop page or give us a ring, we would love to help!


I recently got out all my deck furniture and decided it was time to hang some string lights! Now, I realize I am lucky because my dad is a retired electrician, but with the right equipment you too and add string lights to create a cozy outdoor space. My dad was able to hard wire the lights to the patio light fixture so when I turn on the exterior lights the string lights turn on too! However, if you have an exterior outlet you can just use that.


Here are some supplies you may need...

  • We also ended up needing zip ties to help secure the poles to the deck to withstand wind - Click Here

  • You may also need these cable wire clips if your lights are being secured to your house siding - Click Here
