Why Controls Matter Now
Energy codes across the country are tightening, and lighting controls have moved from “nice to have” to a baseline project requirement. Occupancy sensors, daylight harvesting, dimming, and networked control systems are now standard in many jurisdictions. For architects and designers, controls are a core part of delivering compliant, high-performance lighting plans. For building owners in hospitality, retail, and commercial spaces, the right controls strategy directly impacts energy costs, tenant comfort, and long-term operating budgets. And for distributors, reps, and contractors, understanding how to pair the right controls with the right fixtures is a competitive advantage that opens doors to larger and more profitable projects.
Westgate’s controls lineup, including integration with trusted platforms like Keilton and Autani, is built on the same principles that define our entire product line: consistency, performance, and dependability.
Watch On Demand
The recording is free and open to distributors, contractors, architects, designers, building owners, and anyone involved in lighting specification or project delivery. Watch any time, at your own pace, and share it with team members who would benefit from the discussion.
