Client Overview: Mazda McDonald West

A Leading Automotive Dealership Committed to Excellence

Mazda McDonald West is a well-established and respected automotive dealership in Lakewood, CO, serving the greater Denver metropolitan area. As a business centered on vehicle sales and customer service, the visual presentation of their inventory, particularly on the outdoor display lots, is paramount. They sought to ensure their exterior lighting system provided optimal brightness, uniformity, and efficiency to highlight their vehicles effectively, create a welcoming atmosphere for customers, and ensure safety for both staff and visitors.

Recognizing the critical role of superior illumination, Mazda McDonald West collaborated with Going Green Contracting to leverage our specialized knowledge in commercial lighting design and supply. Their goal was to achieve a lighting scheme that not only met but exceeded industry standards for automotive dealerships, contributing to an enhanced sales environment and overall customer satisfaction.

The Challenge: Precision Lighting Design for a Modern Dealership

Achieving Optimal Illumination for Vehicle Display and Customer Safety

The primary challenge at Mazda McDonald West involved designing an exterior lighting system that could achieve optimal illumination across a large vehicle display area while considering various practical factors. Ensuring uniform brightness to showcase every car effectively, minimizing glare for drivers, and maintaining high safety standards for staff and customers navigating the lot at night were critical requirements.

Achieving this precision required a detailed photometric analysis that accounted for existing pole locations, desired light levels, and the specific characteristics of different fixture types. The client specifically requested two distinct photometric designs, allowing for comparative analysis and ensuring the selected solution would perfectly align with their operational and aesthetic goals. This dual-design approach underscored the need for deep expertise in light distribution and fixture selection.

Our Lighting Design & Supply Solution for Mazda McDonald West

Engineering Optimal Illumination for a Premier Automotive Dealership

Going Green Contracting delivered a specialized lighting solution for Mazda McDonald West, focusing on precision photometric design and the supply of high-performance fixtures. Our approach ensured every aspect of the dealership’s exterior illumination was meticulously planned and executed.

Strategic Pole Location & Head Configuration Design

Our initial step involved a detailed analysis of the dealership’s outdoor layout, specifically considering the existing and potential pole locations. Based on this, we developed a strategic plan for how each pole would be configured to achieve maximum coverage and optimal light distribution. This design included a clear key indicating whether poles would feature single, double, triple, or quad heads to effectively illuminate the vast vehicle display areas and surrounding pathways. This thoughtful design ensures efficient use of lighting resources.

Dual Photometric Designs for Optimal Performance

A key aspect of our service was the development of two distinct photometric designs, providing the client with comprehensive options for their lighting solution. The first design utilized the SLP16 series fixtures, detailing the layout and expected illumination levels. The second design showcased the capabilities of the SLP22 series fixtures, offering a comparative analysis of light distribution and performance. Both designs included detailed calculation summaries outlining average, maximum, and minimum illumination levels across the dealership and front row areas, allowing the client to make an informed decision based on precise data. Our authoritativeness in providing these detailed analyses was crucial for the client’s decision-making process.

High-Quality Fixture Supply

Upon approval of the photometric design, Going Green Contracting became the trusted supplier for the project’s lighting needs. We supplied a total of 103 high-quality area pole light heads. These fixtures, specifically part numbers from the SLP16 and SLP22 series (e.g., SLP16175LEDSCR4KU, SLP16175LEDSCL4KU, SLP22230LEDSCR4KU, SLP22230LEDSCL4KU), were chosen for their efficiency, durability, and ability to deliver the specified illumination levels outlined in the photometric designs. Our experience in sourcing reliable products ensures the longevity and performance of the installed system.

Collaborative Project Execution

Throughout the project, Going Green Contracting worked seamlessly with the contracted installer. Our role involved providing all necessary photometric documentation, fixture specifications, and technical support to ensure the designs were implemented precisely as planned. This collaborative approach guaranteed a smooth installation process and ensured that the final lighting system met Mazda McDonald West’s high standards for quality and performance.
