Luceco Spotlights Speke Showroom

Luceco recently worked with Senate Group at Peoples Ford in Speke on a two phase project. Firstly, refurbishing the new OMODA/JAECOO showroom in phase one before moving on to its existing Ford Car and Transit Centre in phase two.

Beginning with a complete strip out of the existing fittings and fixtures, Luceco then designed and supplied a full lighting plan that complimented the space and aesthetics of the showroom.

Downlights from Luceco’s Platinum range were used across the showroom and office spaces. The Platinum and Platinum Mini downlights feature a die-cast aluminium body designed to provide optimal thermal control. A recessed mounted, unique swing tab design enables quick and easy installation in any ceiling. The Platinum Surface downlight uses the same thermal control design as the rest of the Platinum range, with the flexibility to be surface, suspension or BESA mounted.

Another downlight used was Luceco’s Carbon downlight – a stylish commercial LED solution which has been designed to replace PL type downlights and maximise energy savings. It offers up to 100Lm/W whilst providing less distracting glare, reducing eye fatigue and providing a more comfortable ambiance. Also with a recessed mounted design, the downlight is suitable for plasterboard or suspended ceiling systems.

For additional lighting, the Luceco Litera was chosen for its versatility. Available in surface and suspended installation models, it offers efficient and high-performance linear lighting with low power consumption, delivering optimal illumination for any commercial environment with efficacy up to 125 Llm/cW.

All lights were installed with emergency features, allowing safe evacuation in case of mains failure with three hours’ worth of back-up power that meets all standards and regulations, and hard wired controls.

Andy Whalley, Luceco Project Manager, said: “Working with Senate Group at Peoples Ford in Speke was an exciting project from start to finish. Choosing the downlights as the primary source of lighting gave a clean, modern look to the surroundings, so were perfect for this commercial showroom application.”

Daniel Ormesher, Project Manager at Senate Group, said: “We’ve worked with Andy and Luceco on multiple projects in the past, so when this opportunity arose we knew we could rely on their expertise to design a lighting plan that would really work well in this showroom setting. We were looking for a value engineering solution, and Luceco were able to deliver the performance and look that we needed.”
