LED Lighting Upgrades
Our LED lighting upgrades transform commercial properties with energy-efficient solutions that reduce electricity consumption by up to 70%. We conduct comprehensive site assessments to design customized retrofit plans that maintain lighting quality while maximizing energy savings. Our installations use DLC-listed fixtures that qualify for utility rebates and include photometric analysis to ensure optimal light distribution. Clients benefit from reduced maintenance costs and improved property aesthetics while meeting sustainability goals through significant carbon emission reductions.
Wireless Controls Installation
We implement advanced wireless control systems that enable remote management of commercial lighting through our proprietary netLiNK platform. These systems allow property managers to create customized lighting schedules, monitor energy usage in real-time, and receive automated alerts for maintenance needs. The two-way communication technology supports dimming capabilities and integrates with building management systems to optimize energy efficiency while maintaining safety standards for parking lots, garages, and exterior spaces.
Monthly Maintenance Programs
Our comprehensive maintenance programs provide ongoing support for commercial lighting systems through proactive monitoring and scheduled maintenance. Each enrolled site receives monthly outage reports, priority service response, and detailed performance analytics. Our nationwide network of licensed electricians conducts regular inspections, performs necessary repairs, and ensures system reliability while maintaining compliance with safety regulations. The program reduces emergency service calls by 40% and provides predictable budgeting for property management teams.
Photometric Lighting Plans
We create detailed photometric studies that visualize light distribution patterns for commercial properties. Using advanced software, we analyze existing lighting layouts to identify dark spots and over-illuminated areas, then design optimized solutions that meet IES recommendations. Our plans consider factors like pole placement, fixture selection, and environmental conditions to ensure uniform lighting coverage while minimizing energy consumption and light pollution for both new installations and retrofit projects.
Emergency Lighting Services
Our 24/7 emergency response team addresses urgent lighting issues with rapid deployment across the United States. We maintain a nationwide network of service technicians who can resolve outages, repair damaged fixtures, and restore lighting systems within hours. The service includes ultrasonic pole testing for structural integrity, circuit diagnostics, and replacement of failed components while maintaining compliance with electrical safety standards and local code requirements.

I don't even know where to begin. This company is unorganized and disrespectful. In between the terrible customer service skills of Tammy and the fact that the company doesn't communicate with one another. I would advise you to do business elsewhere and save yourself the hassle.

Report
I have used WLS Lighting Systems for several commercial ground up construction projects with consistent success. Buddy Bolin who is our project manager is very responsive and knowledgeable. If you're looking for a competent supplier to walk you through complicated lighting restrictions and supply quality products, these are your guys.
