May I suggest rope lighting.
Birdcages have horizontal lines in the aluminum structure. I installed rope lights at the mid-level with screws and plastic clips , about four feet above the deck surface around the pool. The string bends upward over the lanai entrance and along the back of the house. It continues in a complete circle including up and across the top of a birdcage entrance door.
It is simple 110 wiring. The source is an outdoor plug outlet converted to an on/off switch.
Rope wiring is inexpensive and can easily be cut and spliced. I did it myself but it would be routine for any electrician.
Best of all, it is beautiful, soft, even romantic lighting for our pool area!
