FAQs
What types of modern electrical fixtures do you offer for Birchwood homes and businesses?
We stock and supply a full range of contemporary lighting and power solutions, including recessed LED down-lights, statement pendants, linear profile fittings, touch-control dimmer switches, brushed-steel sockets, USB-integrated outlets, and weather-sealed exterior luminaires. All products are selected for their clean minimalist aesthetics, long service life, and compliance with the latest energy-efficiency regulations.
Are your fixtures compatible with smart-home systems such as Alexa, Google Home, or Apple HomeKit?
Yes. Most of our modern fixtures can be specified with Zigbee, Z-Wave, Wi-Fi, or Bluetooth Low-Energy drivers, allowing seamless integration with popular smart-home hubs. Dimmable LEDs, colour-tunable strips, and smart sockets can be app-controlled or voice-activated. Our design team will confirm compatibility and, if required, pre-configure devices so they join your existing network the moment they are powered up.
How energy-efficient are your lighting solutions, and will they help reduce my electricity bill?
All our luminaires use high-efficacy LEDs (120–150 lm/W) and are rated A to A++ under the former EU energy label (now rescaled under UK regulations). Compared with traditional halogen or incandescent fittings, you can expect up to 80 % lower power consumption and markedly less heat output. When paired with occupancy sensors or daylight-harvesting controls, additional savings of 20–30 % are typical in most Birchwood properties.
Do you offer professional installation in Birchwood, and what does the service include?
Absolutely. Our NICEIC-approved electricians cover the entire Birchwood area. The service includes a pre-installation site survey, safe isolation of existing circuits, mounting and wiring of fixtures, functional testing, disposal or recycling of old fittings, and a digital Electrical Installation Certificate (EIC). We schedule work at your convenience and leave every site clean and ready for use.
How do you ensure the fixtures meet UK electrical safety standards?
Every fixture we sell carries a CE/UKCA mark and is tested to BS EN 60598 for luminaires or BS 1363/BS 5733 for wiring accessories. Our suppliers provide full Declaration-of-Conformity documentation, and incoming batches undergo random sample inspections for earth continuity, insulation resistance, and thermal performance. Installations are carried out to BS 7671:2018 (18th Edition) with RCD protection as required.
What is the typical lead time and cost for ordering bespoke or customised fixtures?
For standard catalogue items we can usually deliver and install within 3–5 working days. Custom powder-coat colours, special lengths, or unique driver configurations generally require 2–4 weeks manufacturing time. Pricing depends on complexity but, as a guide, a bespoke linear LED profile starts at £120 per metre, while custom-finished sockets are typically 15 % above standard list price. Detailed quotes are provided within 24 hours of receiving your design brief.
