Why 312 Lights

Licensed & Insured

Commercial-Grade LEDs

We only use professional commercial-grade LEDs — brighter, longer-lasting, and more energy-efficient than anything from a hardware store.

"We've had 312 Lights install our holiday lights for the past three years, and every time they exceed expectations. Friendly, efficient, and so organized. The takedown and storage included is such a lifesaver!"

FAQ

Common Questions

Do you provide the lights, or do I need to supply them?
We offer both options. Most clients prefer that we supply professional-grade commercial LEDs, which come with our full warranty. If you'd like to use your own lights, we can install them — but we cannot warranty customer-supplied equipment.
What areas do you serve?
We serve Northbrook and the entire North Shore including Winnetka, Glencoe, Highland Park, Deerfield, Lake Forest, Glenview, Wilmette, Evanston, and all communities within 25 miles of Northbrook.
Is takedown and storage included?
Yes, every holiday lighting installation includes professional takedown and secure seasonal storage. Your lights will be ready for next year without any hassle on your part.
How much does installation cost?
Pricing depends on the size of your property, the type of display, and whether you use your lights or ours. We provide transparent, no-surprise quotes after a free design consultation.
How do I book a wedding or event installation?
Contact us with your event date, location, and rough dimensions. We'll schedule a site visit, provide a detailed quote, and handle everything from there. We recommend booking at least 2–4 weeks in advance.
Are there any hidden fees?
Never. We promise no last-minute upcharges. Your quote covers everything — installation, takedown, storage, and all supplies we provide.
