Authorized SnapTrack Installer
Every install is built on the same commercial-grade powder-coated aluminum channel system used by professional permanent-lighting installers. Concealed wiring. Architectural finish. Sourced factory-direct.
Highlands Ranch is one of the most architecturally regulated communities in the Denver Metro — the HRCA master association plus dozens of sub-neighborhood associations means every exterior modification needs to clear review. That's actually an advantage for permanent lighting: the homes here are built for clean, intentional finishes, and the aluminum track system delivers exactly that look. We routinely walk homeowners through the HRCA submission process.
We serve neighborhoods across Highlands Ranch, including:
Color-matched aluminum channel. Wiring fully concealed. We provide technical documentation for your architectural review application.

App-Controlled Color
Scenes, schedules, and 64 million colors from your phone. Warm white every night, team colors on game day, full color on holidays.

Colorado-Weather Rated
Built for Highlands Ranch's higher elevation — deeper snow load, harder UV, and wider temperature swings than the rest of the metro. Hardware tested season after season at altitude.
✦
One Install, No Takedown
No November scramble, no January takedown bill. Lights stay up year-round and look architectural — not seasonal — in daylight.
The part your HOA sees in daylightThis Parker installation shows the low-profile, color-matched aluminum channel with the wiring concealed inside. It reads like a trim line instead of seasonal hardware.
Highlands Ranch HOA & Architectural Review
Highlands Ranch is governed by one of the most active master HOAs in the Denver Metro area — the Highlands Ranch Community Association (HRCA) — plus sub-neighborhood associations layered on top. Architectural approval is required for exterior changes, and the review committees pay close attention to roofline hardware. Our aluminum track system is specifically designed for HOAs like these: low-profile, color-matched, and concealed wiring. We'll provide documentation for your HRCA application.
Built for Highlands Ranch Weather
Sitting at the southern edge of the metro area at higher elevation, Highlands Ranch sees more snow accumulation and harder UV than most Denver suburbs. The track we install handles it — rated for extreme cold, heavy snow load, and direct Colorado sun year after year.
Highlands Ranch homeowners invest in their exteriors. Stone accents, cedar soffits, custom landscaping — these aren't homes where stringing a Home Depot bulb kit makes sense. The Govee permanent system installed into proper architectural track is the finish that matches the rest of the house.
What Does Installation Cost in Highlands Ranch?
Govee installation and aluminum track cost $18–$21 per linear foot, with an $1,250 installation minimum. Add the actual checkout cost of the required light kits, including retail tax and shipping. 5280 Signature costs $26–$30 per linear foot supplied and installed, with the lower per-foot rate on larger homes. We confirm footage, coverage and kit requirements remotely before providing a written quote. Homes in Eastridge and Northridge land in the middle; custom homes in Backcountry with multi-tier rooflines, outbuildings, and larger footprints push higher.
The range reflects the fact that you own the lights — you order the lights directly from Govee or Amazon, and our quote covers professional installation, the aluminum channel track system, all mounting hardware, wiring concealment, app setup, and a walkthrough. No markup on the lights themselves.
We provide exact quotes from photos of your home — free, fully remote, and with no obligation to book.
A Permanent Alternative to Christmas Light Installation in Highlands Ranch
If you’re looking for Christmas light installation in Highlands Ranch, you’re probably comparing companies that hang lights in November and take them down in January. We don’t offer that seasonal service. We install permanent lights once, and they stay up for every Christmas after.
Seasonal installers in the Denver Metro typically charge $1,000–$2,000 every year. Most permanent installs run $2,200–$7,800 all-in, one time, and on a typical home they cost less than a seasonal rental by about year four. If you only want lights in December, rent your home, or plan to move soon, a seasonal installer is likely the better fit.
"5280 lights did a fantastic job putting up the Govee Pro Lights and snaptrack system. Our home on one side had about a 30' height on one side and the technicians scaled the home carefully and mounted the track and lights with professionalism and everything works amazing. The built in Govee programs make a first timer in programming 1,000's of different scenes from XMAS, 4th of July, to our Denver Bronco football team. You cannot go wrong with hiring 5280 for your permanent outside lighting solution. Call Jake, he will take care of you."

"Jake and his team were incredible, amazing customer service. Our lights are going to be useful for any occasion, especially during Broncos season. I would recommend 5280 lights to anyone looking for a solid long term solution to upgrade their house. Thank you!"

Highlands Ranch Permanent Lighting FAQ
Is this the same as holiday Christmas light installation?
No. Seasonal Christmas light companies hang temporary bulbs in November and take them down in January — you pay every year, and the lights only work for six weeks. Permanent lighting is installed once, stays on your house year-round, and functions as both architectural accent lighting (warm white or dim gold every night) and color lighting for holidays, game days, and seasons. The hardware is built to last 10+ years.
Will my Highlands Ranch HOA approve this?
In almost all cases, yes. The aluminum track is color-matched to your fascia and essentially invisible from the street during daylight — which is the main thing architectural review committees care about. We provide technical documentation for your application. If your specific HOA has questions, we'll help you address them before the install.
How long does installation take?
Most single-family homes are installed in a single day. Larger homes with complex rooflines or detached structures occasionally run into a second day. We show up on time with all the mounting hardware, channel, and tools — you don't need to provide anything except access to an outdoor outlet.
Do I buy the lights or do you?
That depends on the path you choose. On the Govee path, you buy the lights — we tell you exactly which model to order and how many feet you need, quoted remotely from photos of your home. Buying direct from Govee or Amazon means you pay retail — no installer markup — and your warranty is with the manufacturer, in your own name. Our quote covers professional installation, the commercial aluminum track system, wiring concealment, app setup, and the walkthrough. On the Signature path, we supply everything — lights, track, and labor — in one installed price.
What happens if a bulb fails?
On the Govee path, your lights carry a manufacturer warranty held directly by you, in your own name — since you bought them, your warranty is with Govee, not us. That's a better deal for you than going through a middleman. On the Signature path, coverage is confirmed in writing on your quote. If you'd like us to come out and do the physical swap of a bulb, we offer that as a service call.
Start with a text. We’ll confirm your address and coverage, review aerial measurements, and send your complete quote. Photos are welcome, and the quote process is handled remotely.
