Picture of owners. Lanna nd Tim. Tim is a Construction Engineer and a great guy.
Fire Alarm Panel. Also triggers a door closers and a smoke shutter.
Ground Floor Sales.
This is an old building. 1750's so the staircases are pretty narrow.

The lighting is controlled in every case by ceiling recessed movement sensors. One for each row or bank of lights. Lighting is a mixture of Halogen down lighters. Recessed Halide. LED down lighters and recessed colour 80 lamps.

Those little lights for the stairs caught my eye. I have a job coming up where the lady wants something just like that. LV? Line voltage? What brand? Are they available in the states? Thanks

Pictures are always appreciated. Still trying to figure how to link 'em.
Those small stairway lights are nice.
Regarding your first stairway photo, how do you spell claustiphobia ?
Best Holiday Wishes

te12
Thanks guys for your comments. I like pictures too. I will get back te12 Tuesday about the stair lights. Will get the manufacturer info. If they are here in the UK then for sure they will be available in the US. The lights are not really shown to good effect but they are 12 inches above the skirting level and spaced 36 inches apart following the stair line. Cute eh!

"Supplier did not come back to me today with the info"
Suppliers (especially those luminary ones) must be the same the world over! Once we sent that PO, their mind goes blank.
Merry Christmas Everyone, and Best Christmas

Hi folks. I used miniature ceiling lights fitted into the drywall. These are just 1" wide and come in strips of 3/510. Power supply etc I mounted in an accessible spot.
I phoned the company to ask if they had a US distributor. They didn't but I would think you can find these throughout the US. So look for miniature ceiling lights and use as a wall feature for walkway guides etc. I used the 5 and 10 ceiling pack units.That's the bottom 3 applications on the web page.
If you struggle and you would like some. Give me a shout and I can arrange to get some for you.
Frank

How did you rough those in? Did you do anything before drywall?

Frank, thanks for the info. I did something like this once on a stairway but since I couldn't find anything in the lighting books, I used vehicle lights. 12v lights like for license plate illumination. I wasn't all that comfortable doing that but it has worked out and I haven't had a call back on that system for almost 20 years now.

Drywall works.
The lights fit into a 1" hole and the wires to the rear are hard wired by the manufacturer. I got the friendly drywall fixer to lay a dry wall from floor to appx 3' up the wall. Cut the holes - bend over and pull wiring through - then gather at some common spot. If your dry wall guy is a none helper then you have blown it. Mine was a real chirpy friendly type. He even cleaned out the plaster from the wall boxes.!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Never seen that too often.

C'mon - you GOTTA be paying this guy off. I swear most of these guys dump the stuff left in the bottom of the bucket into the electrical boxes so they don't have to carry the stuff out.
