The brackets GoVee Provides are big and not very useful in colder climates. These brackets are designed to fix that.

Govee Curtain Light Minimalist Brackets
These minimalist brackets are designed to be printed in PETG or other strong, UV-resistant material and are modelled for self-tapping 8x1 lath screws.
Printing Notes:
- If you like clean prints, consider a sacrificial layer for screw holes and head offset.
- The hooks have a weird geometry to achieve that satisfying “click” when setting the white plastic leads on the lights. You may need to play with supports or add a breakaway sacrificial layer.
Installation Notes:
The example photo shows that you can use these intermittently or on each light strand -- which is recommended. Also worth noting is that the gap in the photo is an error on my part. I attached the ends without strands for testing.
If you have a garage door like mine that is not flat, it's helpful to employ a laser level and pre-drill for the best results.
Side nodes:
- The photo is of the PLA test prints. It's not a long-term solution, but it's easier and cheaper than PETG for prototyping. If you're in a pinch, this proves it can work in a Canadian winter – but your mileage may vary.
Modification Requests:
I recommend printing a sample to test before committing to a build plate. If these don't work for you, I'm happy to edit the model if detailed info is provided.
