Lighting that costs more than it should
1
Lights on when nobody is there
Offices after hours, car parks and common areas lit all night, every night.
2
Switches everywhere
Banks of manual switches, and nobody sure which one controls what.
3
Changes need an electrician
Adjusting schedules, scenes or zones means a call-out every time.
4
An old system nobody can program
A legacy control system with no documentation and no one who knows how it was set up.


Lighting that responds to the building
We design, program and support lighting control so the right lights are on at the right level, only when they are needed.
Occupancy and vacancy sensing
Lights turn on when people arrive and off when spaces are empty, in offices, amenities, corridors and car parks.
Daylight harvesting
Lights near windows dim automatically when there is enough natural light.
Scheduling and after-hours control
Time-based control for common areas, signage and facades, with simple after-hours overrides.
Scenes and dimming
Presets for meeting rooms, boardrooms, restaurants and function spaces at the touch of a button.
Central and remote control
See and control lighting across the building from one interface, including remotely.
Integration
Connect lighting with the BMS, access control, AV and automation, so the building works together.
Doing it properly
Designed, programmed and documented
- Working with your electrical contractor: they install the wiring and fittings, we design, program and commission the control system.
- Energy compliance supported: control strategies designed to help meet NCC energy efficiency requirements for lighting control.
- Existing systems reviewed first: we can audit, reprogram and extend existing systems rather than replace them.
- Clear handover: documented programming, zone schedules and simple instructions for facility staff.
- Emergency lighting kept separate and compliant, with any monitoring integration planned with your emergency lighting contractor.

Common questions about lighting control
Can you work on our existing lighting control system?
Yes. We regularly review, reprogram and extend existing systems. If documentation is missing, we start by documenting what is there.
How much energy will it save?
It depends on how the building is used today. The biggest savings usually come from turning off lights in empty spaces and after hours. We look at current usage during the site review before suggesting changes.
Can it be retrofitted without rewiring?
Often, at least partly. Wireless sensors and controls can reduce rewiring, while larger upgrades may combine new control gear with existing circuits.
Do you work with our electrician?
Yes. The electrical contractor typically handles wiring and fittings, and we handle design, programming and commissioning.
What about emergency lighting?
Emergency lighting has its own compliance requirements and stays separate. Where the system supports it, monitoring can be integrated in coordination with your emergency lighting contractor.
