Where else can you use rope light kits in your home? We’ve seen incredible installations in media rooms, inlayed into crown moldings, and vaulted ceilings. If you install a set of rope lights around the edge covered by a valance, you can direct the lighting up to the unique ceiling. Even boats and cars can benefit from a few unique applications of 12-volt rope light. To give your bar a great glow in your basement or family room, install a rope light under the edge. Outside, consider adding rope lights along the bottom edge of your deck railing or under the stair treads. This will give illumination in the dark while also making your deck look amazing!
What can you expect in rope light kits? A basic installation will include the light, mounting clips, and a transformer. Many rope lights require a lower voltage than regular 120V available from an outlet. A transformer will step the voltage down to the 12V standard in many rope kits. All rope lights we carry are waterproof for outdoor use. You can also invest in a controller that gives you the ability to dim the rope light or even create a flashing display set to music. With rope lights you can go with a simple installation or express your unique style with a custom touch.
