Architectural Fabrication & Lighting

When you need an illuminating environment, call on Gable.

To create a complete branded environment, you often need more than just screens or signs. Additional architectural design elements and lighting fixtures need to be incorporated to make every inch of your property spectacular. But where do you turn for this integrated set of skills?

You could hire an Architect, an AV company for the LED screens, an electrician for the lighting, a fabricator for the architectural metal work, and a carpenter for the millwork, but that could be a recipe for a disjointed outcome. Instead, Gable offers a one-stop alternative with our architectural fabrication and lighting services.

Much of what we offer is done in-house. Other aspects we manage on behalf of our clients, much like a general contractor. Either way, when you combine all of Gable’s capabilities, your experience is seamless, and the outcome is dazzling.

Gable Thrives in Specialty Construction

For those involved in projects for the built environment, “MEP” (mechanical, electrical, and plumbing) is a familiar term. Anything that falls outside of MEP lands in the specialty section of construction, including architectural fabrication and custom lighting. That’s where Gable shines.

For instance, if copper is a prominent material in your environment and the architect wants the light fixtures to be copper patina but can’t find the right solution off the shelf, Gable can custom manufacture that light fixture.

Another example is popular sportsbooks. We get many requests for oak or stainless steel picture frames that surround a grid of TVs on the wall and include a blue halo light wash for additional drama. Fabrication and architectural lighting design solutions like these finish off the space and create an integrated experience instead of it looking like an afterthought.

FAQs:

Do you have any images of work you’ve completed in the past?

Yes, we have examples of previous architectural fabrication and lighting design projects that we’ve completed. These examples cover a wide variety of applications.

How do you ensure that the architectural work complies with local regulations and building codes?

We have an in-house technical design team who evaluates the structural integrity and code compliance of our designs. We also work with licensed professional engineers certified in all 50 states and can advise on matters like wind loads, weight capacities, anchoring, and safe installation according to the applicable building codes in any jurisdiction. Ensuring all appropriate approvals helps our clients feel confident their project meets regulatory standards.

What’s the typical lead time from design consultation to installation?

The typical lead time depends on the size and complexity of the project. For smaller interior projects, the time from final design to installation is an average of 8 weeks. For larger exterior installations requiring permits, the process typically takes 12–16 weeks from design to completion. This allows time for fabrication, permitting if needed, and scheduling the installation. These example timelines are only a guide due to each project’s unique attributes and our current workload. We’re happy to provide a more accurate timeline estimate once we discuss your specific project scope and requirements.

Do you provide maintenance and repair services post-installation, especially for lighting components?

Yes, we do provide ongoing maintenance and support services after a project is completed. This includes repairs or replacements of common lighting parts that may fail over time, as well as regular cleaning and adjustments to ensure optimal performance. Proper maintenance can help extend the life of the system and address any issues that arise after installation.

Can you provide 3D mockups or simulations to visualize how the sign and lighting will look post-installation?

Yes, we have the capability to provide 3D renderings and simulations of proposed designs. Using 3D design software, our concept design team can create detailed 3D models and renderings that showcase the proposed lighting, materials, colors and overall aesthetic. These visualizations are helpful for clients to get a realistic sense of how the finished project will appear, both during the day and at night. They allow us to illustrate visibility, legibility, illumination levels and how the design will translate with its surroundings.
