APPECK DIY ROOFLINE PLANNER
DIY Permanent Outdoor Lights + Aluminum Track
Plan a cleaner roofline with APPECK C5106 PRO. Pair cuttable permanent lights with a matching aluminum track to keep the installation neat, aligned and less cluttered by visible wiring.
Build Your C5106 PRO Setup
Enter your illuminated eave length and choose how you want to buy. The planner will recommend a supported light kit and estimate the matching track quantity.
Measure the sections where lights will actually be installed. List unlit cable gaps separately.
Choose the finish that best matches your soffit, fascia or trim.
Your recommended setup
100ft C5106 PRO + 2 track kits
For full track coverage, plan approximately two 50ft track kits. The Complete Kit includes the matching track quantity.
This planner is a buying guide, not an electrical design tool. C5106 PRO supports a maximum connected illuminated light-string length of 200ft. For layouts over 200ft, multiple branches or unusual rooflines, contact APPECK before ordering.
Why Add the Matching Aluminum Track?
The track helps keep the light string aligned with the roofline and reduces loose, exposed wiring. Match the track color to the home's exterior for a more integrated daytime appearance. It does not make the system wireless: power leads, connectors and cable jumps still need to be planned and kept accessible.
Cleaner daytime appearance
A slim, color-matched mounting profile helps the lighting follow the eave line neatly.
More organized installation
Track sections create a consistent mounting path and reduce loose wire loops along the roofline.
DIY-friendly planning
Plan track sections, corners and cable gaps before mounting the lights.
Track Quantity Guide
| C5106 PRO light kit | Approx. 50ft track kits |
|---|---|
| 100ft | 2 kits |
| 150ft | 3 kits |
| 200ft | 4 kits |
These estimates are for full track coverage based on the selected light-kit length. If only part of the light string will be mounted in track, measure the actual mounting route. Corners, gaps and cut losses can change the quantity.
Important C5106 PRO Compatibility Notes
- Choose the track designed specifically for the updated double-lens C5106 PRO housing with the center groove.
- C5106 PRO track is not interchangeable with C5111 or PL2 track.
- For an older C5106 version, confirm the light housing before ordering the track.
- Keep connectors accessible where practical and follow the model-specific cutting, reconnection and waterproofing instructions.
- For steep or high rooflines, difficult ladder access or electrical work, use a qualified installer.
