Custom Build vs. Mass Produced Indoor and Outdoor Lighting

We’ve gotten many questions from people that are considering our indoor and outdoor lights for their homes. They’re asking about the differences between mass-produced lights vs. our custom made lighting and the differences in cost.

The easiest explanation is this. Our custom made lights are individually made for each order, this means we take a lot of pride in our craftsmanship to provide top quality lighting products. Each light fixture is born from a piece of sheet metal, which is hand measured, cut, formed and finished to create the end product. Each of our lights can be altered to fit the needs and home decor of the individual that is purchasing it, so every light fixture that we produce is unique to its order and the customer. This provides you with the ability to ask for special features that you may not find with pre-cut and pre-manufactured products. You’ll also find that in many cases the difference in price in minimal to pre-manufactured products and in some cases cheaper. You’ll also notice that our lighting fixtures are made with with higher quality materials like brass, stainless steel and thicker cuts of glass.
