Commercial Kitchen Lighting Birmingham, AL

Lighting substantially impacts a restaurant's success, influencing the dining ambiance and kitchen operations.

Lighting fixtures set the mood, highlight decor pieces, and make your guests more comfortable. Soft, warm lights create an intimate atmosphere, while brighter, cooler-toned lights energize the dining space.

Beyond ambiance, focused lighting boosts the productivity of kitchen staff and reduces accident risks in food prep areas.

At MPE Services, we understand these multifactored needs and offer specialized industrial lighting solutions to illuminate your industrial kitchen perfectly.

 

Our Lighting Services

There's almost no limit to the types of commercial lighting services we do: if it exists, we'll likely have a fix! Here are just a few examples of our indoor lighting services:

  • Commercial kitchens are high-pressure environments with unique lighting needs—chefs require adequate lighting to ensure meal prep efficiency and prevent food contamination.

    Our design services focus on creating optimal lighting setups for commercial kitchens. In addition to incorporating the latest technologies, we take time to understand your specific lighting needs to minimize shadows and glare and ensure the kitchen meets health and safety standards.

  • Restaurant kitchens require a balance of bright, focused light for food preparation and a softer ambiance for dining areas. Our fixtures meet the demands of a busy kitchen by providing high-quality, energy-efficient lighting, ensuring every corner is well-lit—from food preparation surfaces to storage areas—reducing the risk of accidents, improving visibility, and enhancing the overall workflow.

  • LED lighting offers numerous advantages to restaurants, making it an ideal choice for both front-of-house and back-of-house areas. For starters, it uses significantly less energy than traditional lighting, reducing energy bills. It also has a longer lifespan, translating to fewer replacements and lower maintenance costs.

    Additionally, LED fixtures highlight the restaurant's ambiance and decor by providing consistent, high-quality illumination.

    LED retrofit kits are an easy and affordable retrofit option. Fluorescent-to-LED retrofit kits are ideal for upgrading the performance and appearance of fluorescent fixtures that avoid purchasing brand new ones.

    We want to ensure that each retrofit lighting kit we install reliably performs as it should for as long as possible. For this reason, we use superior technology and installation techniques and include a seven-year warranty for every project.

  • These systems offer precise control over lighting levels, color temperature, and intensity to create the desired ambiance for different times of the day or special events. For example, brighter lighting during breakfast hours can create a lively and energetic atmosphere, while dimmer, warmer lighting in the evening can provide a more intimate and relaxed dining experience.

    We often pair these systems with energy-efficient lighting fixtures, such as LED lights, which consume less power and offer longer lifespans than traditional incandescent or fluorescent bulbs.

    Many systems also allow remote monitoring and diagnostics for faster identification and resolution of lighting issues to minimize downtime.

    Similarly, we can automate lighting schedules by programming them to match the restaurant's operating hours. For instance, the lights can dim or switch off during slow periods to optimize energy use.
