String Lights Made for Your Space

Patio string lights are the quickest way to make a backyard feel like a room after dark, and the boxed kind rarely fits. Strands come in fixed lengths, droop in the wrong places and fade after a summer or two. Gemstone Lights Patio Lights are planned around your patio, pergola or posts by your dealer and installed as a finished part of the space.

On a warm North Atlanta night that might mean a soft white over the dinner table while the kids are still in the pool, then a slow color fade once the adults settle in around the fire pit. Every bulb is a smart LED with over 14 million colors and its own warm-white diode, and each one can be set individually.

Patio lights join any Gemstone Lights system, so they can share a schedule with your roofline lights or a set of deck lights and change color with them.

Built for Georgia Summers

Outdoor patio lights in Atlanta have a lot to put up with: July heat, afternoon thunderstorms that blow through in twenty minutes, strong sun for most of the year and the odd hard freeze in January. Each smart bulb is made to cope with freezing temperatures, high UV exposure and strong winds, and the system is UL certified for outdoor use.

Every run uses sealed, waterproof connectors and ends in a weatherproof cap. If a bulb ever fails, it unplugs and a new one goes in, so you are not throwing away a whole strand over one dead light.

A Warm White That Looks Like a Real Bulb

Most color-changing string lights fake white by mixing red, green and blue, and it shows as a cold, faintly purple glow. Gemstone patio bulbs carry a dedicated warm-white diode, so the everyday setting looks like the classic café string light you had in mind in the first place.

When there is something to celebrate, the same bulbs switch to full color, patterns and animations. Pick a premade look for the Fourth of July, build your own with the pattern builder in under a minute, or let Autopilot change the patio for holidays and game days on its own.

Where Patio Lights Work Best

A few of the spaces your dealer can plan around.

Pergolas

Runs that follow the beams, or cross the top for a canopy of light over the table.

Covered Patios and Porches

A tidy line under the roof edge turns a screened porch into an evening room.

Posts and Open Areas

Spans between posts over a patio or lawn, planned to fit without cutting or splicing.

Fences and Side Yards

Bulbs along a fence give a narrow side yard or courtyard a glow without floodlighting it.
