Enbrighten Eternity Lights are permanent outdoor LED strands designed to replace seasonal string lights with a one-time, year-round installation. Before mounting, homeowners should measure the full roofline, confirm their mounting surface, plan consistent spacing, and map out corners and power access. Custom mounts from Deliciosa Decor can help the finished install look cleaner and more intentional.
Enbrighten Eternity Lights are built for homeowners who want a cleaner, more permanent way to light up their home—one that works for everyday curb appeal and holiday displays alike. Instead of dragging out a ladder every November and December, Eternity Lights stay put year-round, endless color combinations and color mode through an app rather than a physical swap of bulbs.
Getting a polished result, though, depends heavily on what happens before installation day. Measuring carefully, choosing the right mounting surface, planning spacing, and thinking through corners, power, and control options all matter more than most homeowners expect going in.
The Costco listing for the 100 ft. Enbrighten Eternity Eave Lights set shows 16.5-inch LED spacing, 33 lumens per light, highest quality RGBWic LEDs, app control, and compatibility with Amazon Alexa and Google Home. You can connect multiple strands that can also be linked—up to 200 ft. in some configurations—giving homeowners flexibility for larger homes. Shoppers comparing options can also find Enbrighten's Eternity Eave Lights through Amazon, which offers another place to check pricing and availability side by side.

What Are Enbrighten Eternity Lights?
Enbrighten Eternity Lights differ from quality standard seasonal string lights in one key way: they're designed to stay installed permanently, not to be hung and taken down every season.
The low-profile, architectural look matters most during the day, when most string lights look obviously temporary hanging off a roofline. Eternity Lights are built to sit close to the eave, giving the home a finished appearance whether the lights are on or off.
Enbrighten markets the system as a one-time installation meant to eliminate the seasonal setup-and-teardown cycle entirely. That means less time on a ladder each year and more consistency in how the home looks from the street. The lighting is designed for year-round exterior use, covering everything from subtle accent lighting on a summer evening to full-color holiday displays in December with true color illumination.

Measure the Roofline Before You Install
Skipping the measuring step is one of the fastest ways to end up with an uneven, frustrating install.
Start by measuring the full roofline—every front-facing run, corner, peak, valley, and spot where the line changes direction. It helps to walk the perimeter of the house with a tape measure or laser measure, noting distances between each transition point rather than estimating from the ground.
Measuring first helps avoid three common headaches: awkward gaps where a strand runs short, unnecessary extensions purchased because a run was underestimated, and too many cut points that weaken the overall look. It also gives homeowners a chance to decide how far the lights should sit from the wall so the light spread looks balanced when viewed from the street—lights placed farther out will spread more light across the exterior, while lights placed closer create a tighter, more subtle glow.
Before buying hardware or mounting a single bracket, map the full run on paper. This single step turns installation from a guessing game into a straightforward, sequential process.
For homeowners who want to go a step further and understand how professionals think about light placement and spread, the Lighting Research Center offers broader education on lighting design principles that can inform smarter placement decisions.
Check Your Mounting Surface an Choose the Right Hardware For Outdoor Lighting
Not every exterior surface accepts hardware the same way, and matching the mounting method to the surface is where a lot of installs go wrong.
Most homeowners will run into one of five common surfaces: wood, vinyl, aluminum, brick, or concrete. According to Enbrighten's own FAQ, the included brackets—paired with double-sided tape and screws—install securely on wood, vinyl, and aluminum. Brick or concrete surfaces are a different story: these typically require masonry screws, which are not included in the box, since the standard screws won't hold reliably in mortar or poured concrete.
A clean, long-lasting install starts with this surface check. Skipping it can mean brackets that loosen over time or, worse, brackets that never fully secure to begin with. It's also worth thinking beyond the installation day itself. Use outdoor-rated attachment points and consider how the mount will hold up through freeze-thaw cycles, wind, and rain over multiple seasons rather than just how it looks the afternoon it goes up.
Homeowners uncertain about whether a DIY install is appropriate for their home's wiring or mounting situation can reference the Electrical Safety Foundation International's guide to qualified electricians to understand when hiring a licensed professional makes more sense than tackling the job solo.
Plan the Spacing For Landscape Lights So the Finished Look Feels Intentional
Consistent spacing is what separates a polished, custom-looking install from one that looks slapped together.
The 16.5-inch LED spacing built into Enbrighten Eternity Lights creates a specific visual rhythm along the home's exterior. That rhythm is part of what gives the finished product its “built-in” appearance rather than looking like an add-on. Before installing a single bracket, it's worth deciding what the end goal actually is: a subtle daytime profile that barely registers until it's turned on, a more visible glow for evening balcony lights, pergola lights and curb appeal, or stronger accent lighting designed to be seen from the street.
That decision affects more than just how the lights look at night—it also changes how light spreads across siding, trim, and nearby landscaping. A strand mounted close to the wall will wash the siding in a tighter band of color, while one mounted farther out will cast a wider glow that interacts more with shrubs, trees, and walkways below.
Getting the spacing decision right early ties directly back to the core promise of a permanent lighting system: a home that looks finished, not temporary. The Enbrighten Eternity Lights FAQ is a helpful reference for additional guidance on spacing, mounting surfaces, and installation basics straight from the manufacturer.
Handle Corners, Roof Changes, and Transitions Cleanly
Every roofline has at least a few spots where things get more complicated—gables, bends, eaves that step up or down, and other transitions that break the straight run.
The good news is that Enbrighten designed the strands to be cuttable, flexible, and linkable, which gives homeowners room to adapt. Multiple strands or extensions can be connected to reach up to 200 ft. in some configurations, according to Enbrighten, which means larger or more complex rooflines don't have to compromise on coverage.
That flexibility only pays off, though, if corners and transitions are mapped out before any drilling or fastening begins. Trying to problem-solve a tricky gable in the middle of installation—after brackets are already screwed into a straight run—almost always leads to a less clean result. Planning these transition points on paper first keeps the run visually balanced, even when the roofline itself changes shape multiple times around the house.
For specifics on linking strands and connecting extensions correctly, the Enbrighten Eternity Lights FAQ covers the exact process, including how far strands can be linked before a second power supply becomes necessary.
Manage Wiring, Power, and Control Options
Where the power source sits matters just as much as where the lights themselves are mounted.
Since these lights run continuously outdoors, planning for a GFCI-protected outlet is essential—not just for code compliance, but for basic safety against moisture exposure over time. Before finalizing a mounting plan, homeowners should confirm there's a GFCI outlet within reach, or budget for one to be installed if there isn't.
On the control side, the free Enbrighten app from the Apple app store and the Google Play supports automatic scheduling, including preset and custom ON/OFF times, along with location-based automations. The app also works with voice control through Amazon Alexa and Google Assistant, so lights can be adjusted hands-free once everything is set up. It's worth checking Wi-Fi strength at the mounting location before finishing the install, since the app requires a 2.4GHz connection for pairing—weak signal at the roofline can create frustrating setup delays.
Once paired, the app's scheduling and automation features mean the lights can run on autopilot: custom presets, recurring schedules, and saved templates all reduce the need for daily manual adjustments. For a look at how the app functions before committing to a purchase, both the Enbrighten app on the Apple App Store and Enbrighten on Google Play offer details on setup and features.
Why Homeowners Like a Permanent Lighting System (More Than Just Holiday Lights
The appeal of a once-and-done installation comes down to avoiding a task most homeowners genuinely dislike: hauling out the ladder every season to hang, then remove, then re-hang string lights.
A permanent system covers holiday use, architectural accent lighting, and everyday exterior polish without asking the homeowner to do anything more than open an app. Enbrighten designed the system to be weatherproof and durable through changing seasons, which means it's built to handle summer heat, winter cold, and everything in between without needing to come down.
For many homeowners, this is the detail that makes a home feel finished year-round rather than looking bare for eleven months and decorated for one.

Installation Mistakes to Avoid
A few small oversights account for most of the frustration homeowners run into during installation. Watch out for:
- Mounting before measuring the full roofline
- Choosing the wrong surface hardware for brick, concrete, wood, vinyl, or aluminum
- Forgetting to plan around corners and transitions before drilling
- Ignoring power access and Wi-Fi signal strength at the mounting location
- Spacing the lights unevenly along the run
- Skipping a dry-fit before final attachment
- Not planning for future extensions or additional strands
