130 EXTERNAL LED LIGHT FITTINGS

Carried out at Davidsons Feeds, West Lothian

Project Brief

The client requested better lighting for their yards for when lorries were moving around during the winter months and at night. They were also fed up with the constant upkeep of the existing sodium option and were looking for a low-maintenance alternative.

Our Approach

We recommended Agron LED 150W flood lights to provide better illumination, this came with a 5 year warranty. We used the existing power which we could isolate individually by removing the fuse in the base of the pole or from the local fuse board. Using a cherry picker and a team of 3 people we completed the work on schedule within 2 weeks.

The client was so pleased with the work we carried out they have since referred us to several similar businesses.

This type of LED lighting is perfect for use in car-parks, car showrooms, farms, warehouses, garages, schools and a whole host of other commercial and public areas.

This  55" TV installation was carried out at Michael Laird Architects in Edinburgh.

The client wanted to create a boardroom that was suitable for presentations and meetings that utilise modern technology, including a 55" television and full compatibility with laptops and iPads.

Our Approach

We provided multiple connections for laptops via an HDMI connection fed through a floor box under the desk. We also set-up iPads to connect to the Apple TV and supplied power and the internet connection for the TV to ensure full Smart TV functionality. All cables were concealed within the walls and under the floor, which was solid concrete, to keep the space tidy and avoid trip hazards. We also organised a plasterer and painter to finish off the job once the electrical work was completed to ensure the space was ready to use straight away.

Garden Lighting

Garden lighting project in Corstorphine.

Project Brief

The client was looking for external lighting that she could enjoy when sitting in the garden. 

Our Approach

We suggested using led spike lights on the ground to light up the features around the garden and can be directed and adapted as the seasons change. 
We also installed the lights on a timer and dusk sensor so the lights would come on when it got dark and switch off at the desired time. 

The work lasted around 2 days from start to finish and was completed within budget.

We carried the work out over 2 weekends as it was more practical for everyone involved.
