Designed for your project

Decorative metalwork is rarely one size fits all. From feature ceilings and architectural screens to reception elements and integrated details, each solution is developed around the specific requirements of the scheme.

By considering form, scale, fixing and installation from the outset, we help ensure the final result is both visually strong and practical to deliver on site.

Applelec Projects systems are developed as complete solutions aligned to your design intent. Substitution during installation may impact performance, aesthetics and overall project outcomes. Our team provides technical support, site surveys and installation guidance to help ensure your specification is delivered as intended.

Architectural LED Light Engines for feature lighting installation

"BrightLINE from Applelec Lighting was the ideal system for this project as the lightboxes were exceptionally shallow at just 60mm depths. The slim LED solutions fitted perfectly within the challenging location, and achieved a flawless finish for the faux window designs. The system couldn’t have been easier to fit, with Applelec Lighting pre-mounting the BrightLINE solutions ready for an extremely quick installation."
