Permanent Outdoor
Lighting Systems
When you install lighting
for your business location, you’re probably thinking of creating an outdoor
space that will be safe for your employees and clients. Bright lighting in
parking lot areas, at entrances and exits and along all pathways is very
important for safety. You may also think of discouraging theft and vandalism by
making sure that anyone near the building can be seen by security personnel.
LED lights such as shoe boxes and wall packs work well for these purposes. LEDs
are durable, bright, and energy-efficient; most LEDs give decades of light
before they need to be replaced.
Safety and security
are paramount. But light can also be used to help to brand your business, and
to connect it to the community. Many businesses are now opting to install
permanent LED strip lighting on roofline, eaves, and gables. You can light your
building in your company colours, making it more visible on the skyline, and
identifiable from a great distance. The ambient light from the permanent strip
lighting can give your building a more welcoming feel, and can help to
establish you as part of the surrounding community.
Show Your Colours!
Permanent LED strip
lighting offers you the ability to program, with the touch of a smartphone
screen, hundreds of different colours. You can also create patterns with the
lights: make them flash, blink, chase, or alternate. If the Blue Jays are doing
well fans show their team spirit with blue and white lighting during the games.
You can even make the lights strobe or flash whenever the boys get a run! If your
business supports causes such as breast cancer awareness, you can program pink
lights to show solidarity. If you want to display holiday lighting, permanent
LEDs allow you to celebrate with the colours of Christmas, Hanukkah, or
Ramadan. You can choose one, or celebrate all of them in turn.
Many businesses use
the lights to attract attention on special days. Do you have Irish customers?
Make their day on St. Paddy’s by turning green. Are you offering a Valentine’s
Day special? Ensure customers get the message with red and pink lighting.
Canada Day, Halloween, and special corporate events can also get their own
customized illumination. Possibilities are endless. Your business can
communicate to the community through the use of colourful and welcoming light.
Landmark
Your business may be
one among many in a commercial area, and it can be challenging to stand out
from the crowd. Using light to differentiate yourself can be very useful. Your
building may even become a landmark for people who frequent the area. The best
professional installers are able to fit lights to virtually any building – even
round ones!
Find a Canadian
company with experience and high-quality products. You’ll want to access the
latest smart technology for lighting control, and to use durable
weather-resistant lights. LED lights are long-lasting: look for a company that
offers a five-year warranty, but keep in mind that many users run strip
lighting six to eight hours a day and don’t need to replace them for twenty
years. LEDs are also eco-friendly and energy-efficient, with 80% - 90% more
efficiency than conventional bulbs.
