Permanent Light Installation, The Process in Plain English|How Permanent Lighting Installation Works From First Call to First Night

Before any hardware goes up

The first step is a look at the property, not a crew on the roof. Somebody comes out and looks at the roofline, talks through what you are after, and figures out which lines are worth lighting. The consultation is free and it does not commit you to anything.

Custom design, not a template

Your house has its own lines, so the plan gets drawn around it. A good design follows the architecture that is already there: the roof edge, the peaks, the columns, the entry. Businesses get the same treatment across the facade, the entrance and the patio.

The install itself

The crew does the whole thing. The track goes up along the planned lines and is color matched to the house. Wiring is run so it is not hanging in view, then the system is connected and set up on your phone. Before the crew leaves, somebody walks you through the app, so the first night is not a guessing game.

Commercial installations follow the same steps

For a business the steps are the same, although the scale is different. What changes is when the work happens. Most businesses would rather the crew work outside of open hours, so the install gets planned around the schedule.

Getting the most out of the first visit

You do not need to prepare much, but a few things make the visit better. Think about where you want light, not just where you want color. Think about whether you want December color, nightly light, or both, since that shapes the plan. And look at your own house after dark once, since the gaps only show up after sunset.

Living with the system once it is up

Expect a few evenings of experimenting. That is fine and expected, and then almost everybody settles into a routine. The routine is usually one warm white on a dusk schedule, and color kept for holidays and events.The other thing worth setting up early is the schedule itself. Lighting that needs a decision every evening does not get used as much.There is very little you have to do on install day. Clear access around the house makes the day go faster: an unlocked gate, a clear driveway, pets in the house. Beyond that the crew works and https://jsbin.com/wanapuvoni you do not have to hover.

After the install

From there it is a phone app and a house that lights up. The everyday setting is usually a simple warm white, with color kept for the days that call for it.
