FAQ
What do you need from me to start?
A site plan in PDF or DWG format is best. Fixture information, IES files, cutsheets, or local lighting requirements are also helpful if available.
Can you fix a photometric plan that failed review?
Yes. Send the previous plan and the review comments. We can adjust fixture layout, optics, shielding, and calculations based on the issue noted by the reviewer.
Do you handle light trespass and shielding requirements?
Yes. If the project has property line limits, shielding requirements, glare concerns, or spill light restrictions, we review those during the layout process.
Do I need to already know the required foot-candle levels?
No. If you already have a target, include it. If not, send the project information and we can review the lighting criteria based on the type of application.
How quickly will you respond after I submit?
We follow up personally after submission. Sending drawings, site details, and fixture information helps us confirm scope faster.
