There are several ways to hang Christmas lights safely. Here are some key Christmas light safety tips to keep in mind:

Always use Christmas lights and extension cords that are rated for outdoor use.
Don’t overload outlets by plugging in too many lights.
Opt for LED lights for a safer display that saves on energy costs.
Do not use old or broken Christmas lights.

If you don’t have a ladder, you may be able to use a light-hanging pole. If not, you’ll have to rent a bucket lift or other machinery to reach your roof.
