Concord’s Commercial LED Lighting Contractor
Warehouse high-bay, retail and office layouts, parking lot lighting, and controls that cut the load and the maintenance. Bobby Shaver scopes the fixture count and the wattage before and after, so the savings are a number, not a promise.
Old lighting is a bill you pay every month and never see.
Commercial lighting is one of the largest fixed loads most Concord businesses carry, and on old fluorescent tubes or metal halide high-bays, it is a load that runs high and needs constant relamping. A warehouse in the Poplar Tent industrial parks, a retail floor near Concord Mills, or an office off Church Street running dated lighting is spending on energy and maintenance every month that an LED layout would cut hard. That is the case Bobby Shaver makes with numbers, not a pitch.
The retrofit starts with a count: how many fixtures, what wattage they draw now, and what the LED replacement draws. Metal halide high-bays that pull 400 watts each get replaced with LED high-bays at a fraction of that, and the drop across a whole warehouse is dramatic. Fluorescent troffers on a retail or office ceiling get swapped for LED panels that are brighter, more even, and drawing less. Bobby lays the numbers out so you see the actual load reduction and the payback window before deciding.
Beyond the fixtures, the controls are where a lot of the savings live. Occupancy sensors that shut lighting off in empty areas, daylight harvesting that dims fixtures near windows, and scheduling that turns exterior and sales-floor lighting on and off automatically all cut the bill further, and a new layout often requires them under current North Carolina energy code. Bobby designs the control scheme to the space, wires it, and permits and inspects the job where the scope calls for it, whether that is a warehouse, a retail suite, an office, or a parking lot full of pole lights and wall packs.

Count and load audit
Bobby counts the fixtures, records the current wattage, and specs the LED replacement so the load reduction and payback are on paper up front.
Layout and controls
The fixture layout is set for the mounting height and use, and the control scheme, sensors, dimming, and scheduling, designed to the space and the code.
Install around operations
Fixtures are swapped and circuits reworked on a schedule that keeps a Concord business running, with the disruptive phases planned for off hours.
Permit and inspection
Where the scope is a new layout, added circuits, or controls, the permit is pulled and the inspection scheduled and passed.
Commercial lighting for Concord properties
Warehouse High-Bay LED
Metal halide and old fluorescent high-bays swapped for LED in Concord’s industrial and flex space. Brighter floor, far lower load, less relamping.
Retail and Sales Floor
Even, bright, well-rendered LED lighting for retail near Concord Mills and beyond, laid out so the merchandise and the space look right.
Office LED Panels
Fluorescent troffers replaced with LED panels for a Concord office, cutting glare and load while lifting the light quality people work under.
Parking Lot and Exterior
Pole lights, wall packs, and building-mounted security lighting on photocell or timer control for safer, lower-cost Concord commercial exteriors.
Lighting Controls
Occupancy sensors, daylight harvesting, dimming, and scheduling that cut the bill further and meet current North Carolina energy code on new layouts.
Emergency and Exit Lighting
Code-required emergency and exit lighting installed and tested so a Concord commercial space passes inspection and keeps people safe on an outage.
Concord’s warehouses and storefronts run brighter and cheaper on LED
From the high-bay-lit warehouses in the Poplar Tent and I-85 industrial corridors to the retail and office space around downtown Concord and Concord Mills, the buildings still running old lighting are paying a premium every month and dealing with dead tubes and burned-out lamps. An LED retrofit fixes both at once, and the controls keep the savings going long after the install.
Bobby works Concord, Kannapolis, Harrisburg, Midland, and the surrounding Cabarrus County commercial market from the Norwood base. Bring the square footage and the current fixtures and the numbers come back fast. Call (704) 575-9463 or contact us online to scope the lighting.
The reason Bobby leads with a fixture count and a before-and-after wattage instead of a savings pitch comes straight from his plant background. At Michelin he spent years measuring load, not guessing at it, and a commercial lighting retrofit is a load problem you can put exact numbers on. Metal halide high-bays pulling 400 watts each across a Poplar Tent warehouse, or rows of T12 fluorescent troffers over a Concord office, add up to a fixed monthly draw that never shows on a walk-through but shows up on every Duke Energy bill. Swapping them for LED at a fraction of the wattage produces a figure he can hand you, along with a realistic payback window and the maintenance you stop paying for once the relamping stops.
Controls are where the second round of savings lives, and where current North Carolina energy code often has a say on a new layout. Occupancy sensors in stockrooms and restrooms, daylight harvesting on the fixtures nearest the windows, and scheduling that runs the sales floor and the parking lot on a clock rather than a switch all keep the load down after the retrofit is done. Bobby designs that control scheme to the space, wires it, and pulls the Cabarrus County permit where the scope, a new layout, added circuits, or a controls package, calls for it, so the job is inspected and the savings hold.
