Chester County Christmas Lights offers commercial holiday lighting for businesses and properties across Chester County, the Main Line and nearby towns. We handle commercial Christmas light installation from the first plan to the install, so your team can stay focused on customers during the busiest weeks of the year.
A lit building gets noticed. A storefront glowing on a dark December evening, a restaurant patio wrapped in warm white, or a neighborhood entrance lit for the season all tell people you are open and in the holiday spirit. The goal is a display that looks right from the road and the parking lot, and fits the way your property works.
Tell us what the property looks like and what you want lit, and we will send a free quote. Ask about takedown when you request your quote.
Holiday lighting for every kind of business property
Commercial properties come in every shape. These are the kinds of places we light.
Storefronts and main street shops
Window frames, awnings, door surrounds and signs are the natural places for lights on a shop. A well-lit storefront helps draw foot traffic on early winter evenings when the sun goes down before closing time.
Offices and professional buildings
An office building can carry a simple, tidy look: rooflines, entrances and the trees out front. It is a quiet way to mark the season for staff and visitors.
Restaurants and cafes
Restaurants often want light where guests see it most, around the entrance, the front windows and any outdoor seating, so the place feels warm before anyone walks in.
HOA and community entrances
Neighborhood entrances, stone walls, entry signs and the trees around them can be lit so the whole community feels festive on the way home. Send your HOA guidelines with your quote request and the plan takes them into account.
Commercial vs residential Christmas lights
What is the difference between commercial and residential Christmas lights? The biggest differences are in the job.
Size of the property
A business or community property is often larger than a house, with longer runs, taller features and more trees. Planning the display takes more thought about what people see from the road and the parking lot.
Surfaces and fixtures
Homes are mostly gutters, shingles and trim. Commercial buildings add brick and stone fronts, flat roofs, awnings, signs, railings and parking lot trees, and each one is lit a little differently.
Who signs off
A homeowner can say yes on the spot. A business may need a manager, an owner, a landlord or an HOA board to approve the plan, and a free quote is easy to pass along.
Timers and schedules
A business may want lights on during open hours and the early evening, and off overnight. A timer can switch the lights on at dusk and off at closing, if you add one, so nobody on your staff has to remember.
Planning your commercial display
Every business property is different. When you ask for a quote, tell us what you want lit, where customers park and walk, and which side of the building people see first from the road. Tell us about the property (a few photos help) and we will send a free quote.
Access matters too. Let us know about loading areas, gates, shared walls or anything a neighboring tenant might need to know about.
What to light first on a storefront
If the budget only stretches to part of the building, start with what a passing driver or walker sees: the front window, the door surround and the sign. A lit entrance does more for a shop than a lit side wall nobody walks past. Trees by the sidewalk and a wreath on the door can come next.
What to light first at a community entrance
At an HOA or neighborhood entrance, the entry sign and the wall or stonework around it are usually the focal point, with the nearest trees wrapped to frame them. Residents see the entrance every evening on the way home, so a simple, even look tends to wear better through the season than a busy one.
What commercial lighting costs
How much do commercial Christmas lights cost? It depends on the property, and the quote is free. These are the things that change it.
Size and height
The length of the building front and rooflines, and how high the lights need to go, are the biggest factors.
Trees, signs and extras
Wrapping parking lot trees, lighting entry signs, adding wreaths or lighting walkways all add to the job.
Our lights, for the season
Like our home installs, we supply the lights for the season, so there is no stock of strands to buy or find space for between seasons.
Call (610) 819-5409 or request a free commercial quote to get started.
When to ask for a quote
Call as early as you can; earlier bookings have more install dates to choose from. Ask about takedown when you request your quote, and you will not be asking staff to get on a ladder.
