Lighting for fit-out projects
The lighting package inside a fit out, designed against the same programme and opening date as every other trade rather than run as a separate job.
Why it matters
Lighting run as a separate package inside a fit out tends to arrive last and slip the opening date. Designing and installing it as part of the main programme, on the same first and second fix as the rest of the electrical work, means it's finished when the other trades are.
ILUX builds the lighting design into the fit-out programme from the start, not as an afterthought once the ceiling's already closed.
What's included
- Lighting design worked into the fit-out layout and programme from day one
- Fitting selection matched to the space and to the brand or site specification
- Emergency lighting designed and installed to BS 5266-1 alongside the main scheme
- First and second fix sequenced with the other electrical work, not run separately
- Controls, signage and exterior lighting included where the project needs them
- Certification issued at handover, ready for the opening date
Where a fit out is the first of a roll-out, the lighting spec proven on site one becomes the standard for every site after it.
Lighting is one trade among several on a fixed date.
Electrical, data, lighting and shutters all land in the same short window before opening. See how the whole programme is coordinated.
From design to a repeatable spec
Once a lighting design is proven at the first site, it's checked against each new location rather than redesigned from scratch, so a roll-out programme doesn't slow down waiting for lighting.
Common questions.
Can lighting be added late to a fit-out programme?
It can, but it's cheaper and faster designed in from the start, before ceilings and containment are closed up.
Do you supply the fittings or just install?
Both. Fittings are specified and supplied as part of the same package as the design and installation.
Is emergency lighting included, or a separate quote?
It's included in the fit-out design as standard, built to BS 5266-1 alongside the main scheme.
