Benefits
Why choose commercial permanent lighting?
• Attract more people to your business • Make your business stand out after dark • No more hassle of putting up lights • Customize for events and holidays
Will putting permanent outdoor lighting on my building be expensive?
There is always an initial cost, but the ROI is well worth it. LED lights are environmentally friendly and will save you A LOT on your energy bills compared to general lighting.
Outdoor lighting is only for homes, right? Could this actually help my business?
Many companies are taking advantage of permanent outdoor lighting to bring attention to their companies and accent the already beautiful architecture and layout of their locations. It can separate you from your competition. You can make a statement with how you present yourself and there is no better way than with commercial outdoor lighting.
How long does it take to install my lights?
Normally, it takes our team one day to install 150 linear feet.
Are the lights dimmable?
They sure are!

Who this is for
You run a storefront or a restaurant, in Avondale, Lakeview, Five Points South or elsewhere, and you compete after dark with the unit on either side.
You manage an office building, a campus or a medical building. The entrance needs to read well, and nothing can close.
You are on an HOA board and need the entrances and common areas lit without blocking the only way in.
What is included
✓ A survey of the site and a written quote that covers the entire property
✓ Installation scheduled around your business hours, early mornings and midweek included
✓ Larger frontages phased across several visits so that nothing disrupts business
✓ Commercial-grade product and fasteners rated for the height and exposure
✓ In-season service for the whole display period
✓ Seasonal removal and storage, or a permanent system if you would rather stop rebooking each year
✓ A design worked to any HOA, landlord or historic district rules you bring us
How it works, step by step
01
Site survey
We walk the property, measure the frontage, and note access, power and anything else that limits when we can work.
02
Quote and schedule
You get one number for the whole property and a schedule built around your hours, and both are agreed before anyone is booked.
03
Phased install
Long frontages go up across several visits, and entrances and access stay open the whole time.
04
Service and removal
We deal with faults during the season and with removal afterward, or we leave a permanent system running year round.
Why hire a pro instead of doing it yourself
Commercial work is mostly a logistics problem, because the lighting itself is straightforward. Doing it without costing you a business day, at height, over an entrance customers are walking through, with the right access equipment and insurance, is the part that needs a professional crew. Retail cannot lose a December Saturday, a restaurant cannot lose an evening, and an office does not want a lift outside reception at nine in the morning.
The other difference is scale. A long frontage or a site with more than one building needs a phasing plan, the same look across elevations that were probably built at different times, and a single point of contact who knows the whole property. Call (205) 382-8991 and we will come out and survey it.

Commercial and HOA lighting across the Birmingham metro
Commercial work here concentrates in a handful of districts. Downtown and Parkside around Railroad Park and Regions Field want lighting that reads as architecture on brick and steel, not decoration. Avondale, Lakeview and Five Points South are restaurant and bar frontage where an unlit facade beside a lit one loses on a Friday. The Summit, Patton Creek and the Riverchase Galleria area in Hoover are retail comparison shopping in the most literal sense, and the Mountain Brook villages and Homewood’s 18th Street are the same problem at village scale.
The practical constraint is almost never the design. It is access. Retail cannot lose a frontage on a December Saturday, restaurants cannot lose an evening, and a lift on 20th Street or in a village needs planning rather than optimism. We schedule around business hours, work in sections, and agree the sequence before anyone is on site.
HOAs get one extra step, and around here there are plenty of them. If your association has rules about fixture color, brightness or where a track may sit, bring them to the consult — it is far cheaper to design inside the rules than to re-run a job after a board meeting.
