Ancectree String Light Hanging Kit，Guide Wire for Outdoor String Lights,Vinyl Coated Wire Rope Wire Cable Outdoor Light Guide Wire,Include 182fts 304 Stainless Steel Wire Cable, Turnbuckle and Hooks

We hung lights from our house to the neighbors house across the street. This hanging kit worked like a charm to hang and secure the lights.

I see alot off reviews saying the wire doesn’t fit into the holes on the adjustable locking screws to create loops at the end of the wire. Unscrew it first so the hole is open before sliding the wire through, it’s easy and works just fine. With that said, I hung lights and used the mechanism to tighten the tension on the wire as it’s intended. The wire slipped through the locking screws, stripped the coating on the wire and fell to the ground breaking bulbs, twice! Sure I made it pretty tight, but that’s what the kit is for. Tomorrow I will put 2 of those locking screw things on each end, to make sure this doesn’t happen again!! It’s a good kit, but if you really want it tight, you need to reinforce the locks that create the loop ends so they don’t slip. I would buy and use this again, but double up the locks if you plan to have tight tension. Extra crimps or double the screw locks. I will now go through the trouble tomorrow so they don’t fall down again, and hold sturdy for the long run.

Made hanging patio string lights easier. Good quality cable, and hardware

I installed some lights with this system. It lasted about 2 months before wind caused it to come down. It is a nice kit, but not heavy enough to stand up to regular use.

Liked the cable system Disliked the zipties because they were twistyties not zipties. Not sturdy enough for hanging outdoor lights

I read the specs on several products and chose this one for its weight limit. It is entirely inaccurate. Putting it all together was irritating enough, but then for it not to hold my item was very disappointing. Not worth the money and description was off base.

First - there is a recent review by Sean indicating the wire rope doesnt fit. It DOES fit if you strip the vinyl coating off. Ill note is the same for most wire rope terminations with vinyl coated wire. Once you strip it off (I used a utility knife and vice grips) you can easily create terminations. Overall really great kit to put up string lights - really is everything you need to put up a set at a really great price point. Noteable: - The 130 pieces are black twist ties not zip ties - I had thought they were zip ties think its reasonably clear if you read more but I missed it when I looked at the picture. In the end think the twist ties work better than the zip ties. Cons: - Lack of instructions (see first item) - think if youre reasonably familiar with wire rope you can fake your way through it but some guidance on what recommended interconnections to use (ie turnbuckle vs carabiner vs hook vs eye strap) - I used mostly turnbuckle to hook but in retrospect turnbuckle to eye strap may have been a marginally better choice. - When you cut wire rope the end will try to fray which the kit didnt provide anything or any instruction on how to deal with that - I used cable end caps from the bike parts bin but think tape works as well

I did a lot of research prior to purchasing these. when they arrived, the quality was apparent. connections are very sturdy. very pleased with the result

The cable broke after 1 day.

When I purchased an outdoor string light set for my patio, I also bought all the wire, hooks and screws that I thought I needed to hang the lights. While the lights were sitting in my garage, I decided to look online to see if there were any light stringing kits… that’s when I found these. Truly a godsend. No thought needed as to what wire or hooks go where, this kit has everything you need to ”professionally” hang your lights. Got everything up in a morning, enjoyed the lights that same night.
