Custom Metal Fabrication for High Mast, Architectural, and Decorative Lighting
Lighting projects require components that hold up outdoors through a variety of environmental factors for decades, need to meet exact specification requirements, or match a designer’s vision for a custom fixture. TMS forms and fabricates metal lighting components across all three, from high mast roadway applications, to architectural fixtures, to one off or short run decorative pieces, all built in-house from raw material to finished parts.
High Mast and Roadway Lighting Components
High mast and roadway lighting projects require components that meet exact specifications, tolerancing, and hold up for decades in outdoor environments without failure. TMS fabricates flanged rings, pole base components, and mounting hardware for high mast and roadway lighting applications.
Components are formed from 304 and 316 stainless steel for corrosion resistance in outdoor environments, with tight tolerance control that keeps parts consistent across large production runs. TMS works from customer prints and engineering specifications, so components fit correctly the first time on projects where field rework isn’t an option.Â
Architectural Lighting Components
Architects and lighting designers specifying custom fixtures for commercial and institutional buildings need a fabrication partner who can match precise dimensions and finish requirements without compromising design intent. TMS forms custom housings, trim components, and structural lighting elements for architectural applications, working from design drawings to produce parts that match the original specification.
Whether the project calls for a single custom fixture or a production run across a building complex, TMS handles both with the same attention to tolerance and finish.
Decorative Lighting and Custom Fixtures
Custom and decorative lighting projects, from estate scale copper lamps, to one off fixture components, need a fabricator comfortable working outside a standard catalog. TMS forms decorative lighting components in copper, stainless steel, and other formable metals, matching custom dimensions and finishes to a designer’s or homeowner’s exact specification.
Metal spinning is especially well suited to decorative lighting work because of its ability to produce smooth, seamless, symmetrical forms without weld seams or tooling costs that stamped parts would require for short runs. In-house polishing capabilities are also available to add a surface finish where necessary.
Lighting Shades and Reflector Components
Whether an application is industrial, architectural, or decorative, lighting shades and reflector housings need a precise, consistent form to control light distribution correctly. TMS spins and forms metal lighting shades and reflector components to exact dimensional specifications, producing the smooth, symmetrical geometry these parts depend on.
Metal spinning produces these shapes as a single seamless piece, which keeps the reflective surface consistent and avoids the seams or joints that would affect light distribution on a welded or stamped alternative.
