TIANFU 20 PCS Hooks for Outdoor String Lights - Screw Hooks - Cup Hooks, Q-Hanger, Hooks for Hanging Plants, String Light Hooks, Ceiling Hooks for Hanging Plants, Black

For uses like hanging string lights to a wood surface, these are very practical. Having hung lights with regular hooks I can really appreciate the spring loaded closure. It keeps the wire trapped so that it cant fall off when blown around by wind or just accidentally pulled. And its easy to remove without having to remove the hook. The hooks themselves are pretty strong so they will hold on well when screwed into a wood surface. I wish I knew about these sooner. I hope this helps. Thanks for reading and liking.

These are great hooks for lights! I really like the little clasp so the string won’t fall off when it gets windy.

I had removed many of the hooks installed by previous owner when I installed some semi permanent lighting strips to the eve recesses outside our home. There were other Christmas decorations to install so I used these hooks. These hooks are priced well for their quality. They may be over sized for Christmas lights. Theyre rather blunt and larger diameter than others so I did find it best to use a drill to start a pilot hole before threading these hooks in place. But the hookclosure on these hooks is a nice solution for string looped decorations that could just blow away with the wind. No worries of losing them this year. These hooks are likely strong enough for other purposes throughout the year.

Hooks feel sturdy and hold well in wood. You should pre-drill pilot hole through, theyre tough to screw in otherwise as these hooks are hand tighten. Using plyers to tighten them on was more cumbersome so I opted to just put on gloves and finger tighten them on. The clip is nice to make sure whatever youre hanging doesnt come loose.

These are built to last and protect from high winds. Very easy to use. Highly recommend.

Predrill starter holes for these hooks and installation will go much easier. We ended up snapping off two of them trying to get them screwed in deep enough. Says theyll hold 40 pounds. Well see. Im hanging a flowering pot on one of them.

These hooks work well for hanging seasonal lights. They have a clip on them, so when using outside the lights won’t blow off the hook. They are easy to screw in. They come with drywall screws if you are installing them into a non-wood wall.

I pre-drilled holes into the wooden soffit to install the hooks so I could string up my Christmas lights. Once the holes were drilled, I started inserting the hooks by hand; then, I used some pliers to screw them in. They are sturdy, and the spring on the hook is stiff, so it took a little effort to push the wire through; that gave me confidence that the wire would not just fall out because of an unclosed spring. I also hung a windchime on one of the hooks, we got quite the wind storm (which damaged the windchime a little ), and the windchime never came loose.

Latching feature is great

These hooks are great! Ive used similar C-style hooks before in my garage. I moved and in the new garage a standard C hook wasnt holding things reliably (theyd fall off) so I wanted to try an enclosed hook. I got these and they are awesome. The spring enclosure is far higher quality and feels more durable than I expected or was even hoping for. These are really well assembled! The hook size is a bit big for holiday lights, though you could use them for that.
