Architectural Lighting in Manchester & London
We can provide a very broad range of Architectural Lighting solutions and have delivered projects globally from Manchester to Dubai. All products are sourced and supplied by GHS and our specialist Lighting Design team provide support across Commercial, Civil and Domestic projects.
There are various options available when designing lighting for buildings. We work with a broad range of manufacturers including Tryka,Studio Duo, Philips and Anolis City colour floods.
Designing architectural solutions with LEDs is much more energy efficient and they are much more flexible than traditional bulbs when it comes to colours and dimming. With RGBW LED lighting we can create scenes required by the client, from small scale systems to full building colour change coverage.
Not only is our new LED range of architectural lighting fixtures more discreet but also much more importantly, they are energy efficient, low maintenance and hence overall cost effective.

Bridge Lighting Solutions
Choices ranging from LED (single or colour changing) − City colour floods (2500 CYM) to more conventional metal halide or Sodium type fittings. Designing lighting systems using the more conventional metal halide lamp based products is still very popular but with the introduction of LED Floodlights we can now design bridge lighting systems without using large projectors that often disfigure a facade of a beautiful bridge.
With RGBW LED lighting we can also create scenes as required by the client; from small scale systems like fascia or eves etc to large scale of complete colour change bridge coverage. Not only is the new LED range of fixtures more discreet but also much more importantly, they are energy efficient, low maintenance and hence overall cost effective

Restaurant Lighting Systems

Bar Lighting
Light levels and the correct lighting colour distribution are critical to achieving the best bar atmosphere. In most instances the lighting design should be divided into separate parts, decorative and task level areas for discrete, but functional lighting for your bar team.
There are increasingly more options when it comes to lighting bars, warm colourful lighting is often used in the decorative areas and LED is most definitely the way forward for just their benefits of no maintenance and potential savings in energy costs. We also recognise that there are areas that require task lighting, where levels should be high. E.g. Walkways and front bar areas for money exchange. Industrial Lighting is also proving very popular for bars to give it a classic speakeasy atmosphere.
Ceiling speakers are the most popular way of supplying background music for bar and restaurants. Foreground systems for bars are designed with the exact specification supplied by the client, often working closely with architects and designers to create a bespoke system for the venue.

Marine Cruise Ship Lighting
Marine Lighting & entertainment systems on the external decks are one of the greatest sound and lighting challenges on a ship requiring every care and thought in the design process. Weather at sea can be very cruel so knowledge and experience in selecting equipment and its protection is essential. However, it also has to accommodate different functions at any time, ranging from ambient sound and light to an impressive visual system for outdoor events.
With carbon emissions being in the fore and increasing fuel costs Ghs is proud to be a pioneer in the design and installation of LED systems into cruise ships; from club, casino, bar, cabins or the main Atrium illumination, the systems we provide have helped reduce costs from maintenance visits, lamp changing, fuel costs and thus carbon emissions.
Ghs understand the significance of carbon emissions on climate change. It is our priority to help companies we work with to improve and maximise system performance whilst reducing their environmental impact and long term carbon footprint. We aim to achieve this through considerate design practices and following best practice guidelines from independent organisations such as the Carbon Trust as well as the use of low energy products such as LED and low energy fittings where possible.

Retail Lighting Solutions
Public Address Voice Alarm (PA/VA) and Background music systems for both Hotels and retail stores are important for fire evacuation and the use of piped music.
BS regulated speakers and main systems are required, as well as these standard systems. We can install new systems, upgrade your system to a higher level or modify a foreground system to accommodate live music or a DJ to create an ambience to suit an event.
Lighting products LED track lighting MR16, GU10, AR111 and Fluorescents are all lighting systems that are commonly used for general task lighting in the retail/hotel sectors. All these products can now be replaced with a full LED system like for like as well as offering some major advantages.

Theatre Lighting Solutions
Theatre lighting consultants and designers are now beginning to use LED systems rather than the conventional high voltage lamped products. Although special effects units such as moving heads (yokes and scans) still need to be used, LEDs can now completely replace the high powered colour strollers and lighting systems. Because the use of these reduce heat emissions and energy usage so significantly, all our designs incorporate LED based systems and consequently benefit the client in helping them lower carbon emissions as well as operating cost savings so significantly that they cannot be ignored.
Clarity of speech, vocals, music and sound effects are important in every theatre. Ghs design and install systems to address this need by using and programming high quality processing, speakers and amplification to optimize the sound systems specifically for each venue.

Disco Lights & Audio Visual Systems
Professional Disco lights like lasers and strobes are a fundamental component in creating a buzzing ambience and style to a club, allowing clubs to create a unique image and scenes for different club nights, identities for an event and individuality to every set. The biggest wow factor in any nightclub is its special effects lighting.
Lasers and light show systems are the preferred choice of lighting effects. They create highlights, entertaining and amazing the crowd like going to a show as well as a nightclub. Our design team strives to create innovative systems using Projectors, Large Format Displays and LED screens as well as LED disco lighting solutions which create stunning effects if they are well integrated.
Club lighting is probably the biggest energy cost. Fortunately, lighting systems can now incorporate a very high percentage of low energy LED lights leaving high energy lamp use for the special effects such as moving heads and scans for dance floor areas. Following this practice, we can create designs that will help lower long term costs and keep the long term carbon footprint, energy consumption and costs of the club down to a minimal.
