Always nice to have a visit from Keystone Tech, one of the leaders in the lighting industry and a great supplier for Premier Lighting! Our Keystone rep Marty Kruse showed up this morning with the Keystone truck & trailer. They have nearly any kind of fixture, bulb, replacement driver/ballast, emergency kit, you name it! Lots of new stuff to learn about like their RGB wall-wash fixture, CCT-select LED tubes (Ballast bypass or ballast compatible) and the new optic-swap LED Area lights.

When you upgrade fluorescent stairwell to a new Stairwell fixture from Keystone Technologies, you get improved light levels with simple controls for added savings!

If done correctly, there are few lighting applications that can meet the energy savings and overall benefits seen when retrofitting fluorescent stairwell lighting to LED. Consider the before/after picture above which speaks for itself in terms of the upgraded light levels. Stairways are seldom used....

At Premier Lighting we have retrofitted sanctuary lighting at hundreds of churches around the country but our recent job at Eagle Brook Church in Woodbury was a highlight. Saving energy is important but when you create experiences for 25,000 people weekly you cannot sacrifice lighting performance for savings. Check out how we were able to create a custom LED retrofit solution while matching the dimming performance on their existing dimming system.

Sure energy savings matter, but when you create experiences for over 25,000 people weekly like Eagle Brook Church does you cannot sacrifice performance for savings. Eagle Brook Church is one church with multiple locations in the Midwest; empowered by God to Reach Others for Christ. Stepping into a c...

Here's a blast from the past! Our first blog was written in January of 2013. In 30 years of business, Premier Lighting has always strived to remain at the forefront of the industry.

This bold is just as pertinent today as it was when it was written. In fact, it describes exactly what we do as a company.

What is a lighting retrofit? Give it a read to learn more!

While you're considering retrofitting, remember energy savings is just one of the many benefits of switching to modern lighting solutions.

Nothing is hotter in the world right now than Lighting. Schools, churches, hospitals, offices and more are looking for ways to stay open and keep their workers and clientele safe. UVC light fixtures can accomplish this goal by killing/deactivating 99.9% of bacteria, mold and viruses (including ). Find out more info on Premier Lighting's UVC solutions at the link below:

The ability of Ultraviolet light to kill pathogens has been known for well over 100 years, but has come to the forefront of the lighting industry recently thanks to the Covid-19 pandemic. This has resulted in a lot of interest in UV lighting, but it is important to take the time to understand it bef...

To the customers, suppliers and friends of Premier Lighting,

With the ongoing fluid situation surrounding Covid-19, we have spent considerable time deciding if Premier Lighting is an "Essential Service" or not. One can live without a light bulb here and there, unless of course it is needed for our essential service customers. These being healthcare facilities, senior living facilities, banking institutions, grocery stores and places providing safety; parking lots and streets!

Just today we received an order for germicidal lamps for a meat market that uses the UV technology in their meat displays! In looking through our open orders today I see orders for clinics, schools, government here in Minnesota!

We have made the decision to alter certain aspects of our business. Some of our staff is working from home, while our remaining staff has staggered shifts allowing for social distancing.

We will continue to service our customers in a manner conducive to the instructions we have received. This was a difficult decision to make that was done so with careful thought and deliberation.

Whomever you represent; small business, big business, or government business, know that we will get through this! As we work through it let's keep our minds and hearts open with a focus on our healthcare workers and government decision makers!

Of course, this could all change in a moment if we are directed to close, and if so, we will do so immediately. Thank you for your continued support of local small businesses everywhere!
