Catenary Lighting

Create magic with large-scale outdoor lighting installations

There’s no doubt that catenary lighting has a striking effect with its soft and moody aesthetic.

When used on a large scale, catenary lighting systems can add an atmosphere of vibrancy and fun, or of romance and wonder. Lighting instalments can also help to create large-scale interest in an event or property, increase the security of an area, and help to increase foot traffic into under-utilised public spaces.

Sometimes referred to as festoon lighting, long strings of small lights are attached to large areas such as house exteriors, commercial buildings or complexes, streetscapes, town centres or even through or above festivals and events for a breath-taking and magical effect. Catenary lighting is not restricted to Christmas – make any space stand out, year-round, with our all-weather outdoor lighting installations.

At SRS, we work on both residential and commercial catenary lighting projects, with a primary focus on large-scale, high-end commercial projects. Designed, built and installed by our in-house team, SRS offer an end-to-end solution for catenary lighting installations.

We are particularly fond of using catenary lighting to lift an external space in a residential environment. If you have an outdoor area, such as a deck, pool or entertaining area within your home, let us guide you through options that will enhance the space.

Lighting Designers

We work with lighting designers to help create beautiful spaces. Exterior lighting has the ability to create a magical and breath-taking area that all your friends and family will talk about for years to come.

Once installed, sit back and relax as our catenary lighting requires minimal maintenance due to the high quality of the products we use. Our rigging, structural cables and fixtures are all constructed using high-quality 316 marine grade stainless steel which we believe is the best solution for outdoor lighting due to its long lasting, low maintenance and non-corrosive properties.

We aim for our structures to be unobtrusive, both visually, during the day when they are not being used, and physically, with no poles or supports at ground level.

We have installed a number of medium-scale catenary lighting installations around the country (see below images of our most recent project on Tuam Street in Christchurch) with a large, high-profile project planned for early 2019 – watch this space.
