FAQ

Common Questions

Can permanent LED dock lights survive a Minnesota winter?

Yes. LakeLights uses commercial-grade, waterproof LED systems rated for extreme temperatures. Our proprietary disconnect system is specifically designed for Minnesota's dock removal season — your lights stay protected and ready to reconnect each spring.

What happens to the lights when my dock is removed in the fall?

Our proprietary disconnect system allows the dock to be fully removed without disturbing the lighting installation. The lights disconnect cleanly in minutes and reconnect just as easily when your dock goes back in each spring.

How long does a dock lighting installation take?

Most installations are completed in a single day. We begin with a free on-site consultation where we assess your dock or lift and design a custom lighting system. Install day typically runs 4–8 hours depending on dock size and complexity.

Do you install lighting on boat lifts as well as docks?

Yes. LakeLights installs permanent LED lighting on both docks and boat lifts. Each system is custom designed around your specific setup — we assess everything during the free on-site consultation.

What areas of Minnesota do you serve?

We serve the full Minnesota lakes region from Detroit Lakes to Alexandria, including Fergus Falls, Perham, Battle Lake, Pelican Rapids, Ottertail, Park Rapids, Vergas, New York Mills and the surrounding lakes including Detroit Lake, Pelican Lake, Otter Tail Lake, Lake Carlos, Lake Ida, Big Cormorant Lake, Lake Lida and more.

Is there a free consultation?

Yes — always. We come to your property, walk your dock, and put together a custom lighting plan at no cost and no obligation. Every property is different, so we design every system from scratch based on what we see on site.
