  1. Measure the area carefully where you wish to install the rope lighting.

  2. Lay the rope lighting around the areas you want lit. If recessed areas are available (i.e. the groove between landscaping and pavement), simply press the rope lighting down into the recessed areas, carefully working your way around the entire area.

  3. Attach a mounting track to pavement using epoxy in areas where no recessed spaces are available.

  4. Run the rope lighting through the mounting track once the epoxy has dried completely.

Tips

For solar lighting, make sure you place the solar panel in an area that gets plenty of direct sunlight.

Warnings

To avoid potential falling hazards, never run mounting tracks across walkways, paths or steps.

Make sure all recessed lighting is pressed down firmly and lays flush with surrounding areas.
