Customer Experiences
Michael Sterling
“I recently oversaw the installation of Gardco’s site and area luminaires for a large shopping center renovation, and the difference in light distribution is staggering. We replaced old HID lamps with their LED site lights, and not only did the foot-candle levels improve across the parking lot, but our client’s energy consumption dropped by nearly 60%. The build quality of the housings is rugged enough to withstand our coastal salt air, and the optical control ensures there is zero light spill into the neighboring residential area.”
Elena Rodriguez
“As a landscape architect, I am incredibly picky about color temperature and fixture design, but Gardco’s wall-mount sconces and landscape lighting exceeded my expectations. We used a series of their architectural sconces for a boutique hotel project, and the way they graze the stone textures while providing uniform downlighting is perfect. The fixtures feel substantial and high-end in hand, and the installation team mentioned that the wiring compartments were surprisingly easy to access compared to other commercial brands.”
David Chen
“We opted for Gardco’s solar-powered bollards and poles for a remote park trail where trenching for electrical lines was cost-prohibitive. I was skeptical about the runtime during our overcast winter months, but the energy management system in these units is top-tier; they haven’t dimmed or failed once. The integration between the brackets and poles is seamless, giving the entire trail a cohesive, professional look that has made the local community feel much safer during evening walks.”
Gardco FAQ
What makes Gardco’s “Full Cutoff” design important for my project?
Gardco’s full cutoff optics are engineered to eliminate wasted upward light and reduce glare, ensuring that your project remains dark-sky compliant while focusing illumination exactly where it is needed on the ground.
Can I upgrade my existing HID fixtures to LED without replacing the poles?
Yes, many Gardco product lines, such as the EcoForm series, offer universal or retrofit arm kits specifically designed to mount to existing drill patterns, making the transition to energy-efficient LED technology quick and cost-effective.
Are Gardco luminaires durable enough for coastal or high-corrosion environments?
Absolutely, as the fixtures are constructed from high-strength die-cast aluminum and finished with a specialized textured polyester powdercoat or architectural anodizing to withstand harsh weather and wet locations.
What color temperature options are available for Gardco LED products?
Most LED lines, including the PureForm and G3 Garage series, offer a range of Correlated Color Temperatures (CCT) typically spanning from 3000K for a warmer look to 5000K for high-visibility security lighting.
How does the 5:1 spacing ratio on Gardco sconces benefit the installation?
The precision optics in Gardco’s performance sconces allow for wider spacing between fixtures (up to five times the mounting height), which significantly reduces the total number of units and electrical circuits required for a building facade.
