Storefront & Signage Lighting Services
Brilliant Lighting That Turns Your Business Into a Beacon.
Commercial-grade illumination that pulls eyes from the street, guides customers to your door, and keeps your brand glowing long after closing time.
Your Hardest-Working Salesperson After Dark
Once the staff clocks out, your façade still speaks. Thoughtfully designed storefront and signage lighting turns that nighttime whisper into a confident welcome. From LED channel-letter lighting and wall-wash floods to pylon-sign illumination, every beam is engineered to:
- Amplify brand visibility on crowded corridors
- Guide customers safely from parking lot to entrance
- Deter vandalism and theft with strategic security glows
- Reinforce identity through color-consistent, high-CRI LEDs
It’s 24-hour marketing that never asks for overtime.
Benefits at a Glance
Instant Curb Appeal
Uniform façade wash lighting eliminates patchy glare and highlights architectural lines.
Energy Savings
Modern LED sign modules cut utility costs up to 70 % versus neon or metal-halide.
Durability
IP65-rated, weatherproof housings shrug off rain, UV, and dust.
Smart Control
Dusk-to-dawn photocells, motion-sensor floods, and app-based RGB scenes—all from one dashboard.
Code & Dark-Sky Compliance
Shielded optics keep spill light out of neighboring windows; UL-listed drivers sail through inspections.

Each luminaire is selected for optical precision, color fidelity, and minimal maintenance.
Our End-to-End Design-Build Process
Nighttime Visibility Audit
Light-meter readings reveal shadow pockets and over-lit glare zones. We map viewing angles from drive-by traffic and pedestrian approaches.
Photometric Simulation
A 3-D render shows wall-washer beams, neon-replacement LEDs, and sign-face illumination before the first purchase order. Adjust brightness or color until it’s perfect on screen.
Fixture & Control Specification
- 90 + CRI LED chips for true brand hues
- Low-voltage LED drivers for reduced power draw
- Wi-Fi/Bluetooth mesh controls for holiday promos or flash sales
Professional Installation
Licensed electricians mount UL-listed, IP-rated fixtures, seal conduit, and program photocells to Mt. Juliet’s precise sunset table—without disrupting business hours.
Commissioning & Fine-Tuning
Two weeks later, we return at dusk to tweak beam angles, verify color consistency, and dial in security-flood durations.
Fixture Technologies That Pay for Themselves
- LED Channel Letters – Uniform backlighting ends the “hot-spot” look of aging neon.
- Linear Wall Grazers – Narrow optics skim brick textures, adding depth without overpowering signs.
- RGBW Sign Modules – Change to Titans blue for game day or soft amber for charity night via an app.
- Optics-Controlled Floods – Beam angles from 15° spot to 120° wide deliver light only where you need it.
- Photocell & Motion Sensors – Branding light at dusk; full-power security burst when movement is detected.
ROI snapshot: Swapping eight 400 W metal-halide wall packs for 120 W LEDs saves ~3,100 kWh annually—enough to power a Tennessee home for three months.
Color Consistency = Brand Consistency
Your signature hue must look identical at noon and midnight. We deploy bin-matched LEDs that hold chromaticity within ± 100 K, plus high-CRI façade floods that keep clothing, food, or vehicles looking true-to-life in display windows.
Safety, Security & Liability
Bright, uniform perimeter security lighting deters loiterers and enhances CCTV clarity. Walkway trip-hazard lighting delivers the IES-recommended 5–10 fc along all customer paths, shrinking slip-and-fall exposure. We handle emergency-egress codes so inspectors sign off on the first visit.
Smart Control Ecosystem
- Dusk-to-Dawn Photocells—forget manual switches.
- Geofence Scheduling—lights ramp up when managers arrive, dim post-close.
- Dynamic Color Scenes—tap “Sale” or “Holiday” and watch the façade transform.
- Remote Diagnostics—cloud dashboards flag driver issues before a single letter flickers.
Integrates with existing BAS or runs as a stand-alone app—your choice.
Regulatory Compliance & Utility Rebates
We handle photometric filings for Mt. Juliet’s dark-sky ordinance and prove every façade uplight meets cutoff limits. Better still, TVA’s EnergyRight program offers per-fixture rebates for energy-efficient commercial lighting. We do the paperwork; you get the check.
Materials, Finishes & Longevity
Expect marine-grade powder coating, tempered low-iron glass, and stainless-steel hardware. Heat-sink engineering keeps LED junction temps under 85 °C, extending life to 50k–100k hours and slashing bucket-truck calls.
Environmental Impact & CSR Alignment
Replacing one 400 W metal-halide pylon with a 120 W LED prevents ~1.4 metric tons of CO₂ annually—equal to planting ten mature trees. All housings are 95 % recyclable, supporting sustainability reports that resonate with eco-aware shoppers.
Digital-Signage Synchronization
Running video panels? We calibrate building-façade accent lights to complement screen brightness, eliminating wash-out and keeping content legible from the curb.
What Clients Say
Your Brand Deserves the Spotlight—Day and Night
Dim floods and flickering neon whisper “neglect.” Precision storefront and signage lighting shouts “open, vibrant, trustworthy.” It directs shoppers, safeguards staff, and sells long after the sales team heads home.
