Why designers specify us

Made to order, made to last, made with you in mind.

01 / Made to order

Every fixture built for your project.

No warehouse overstock. No random stock you can't match. Every piece is spun, welded, and finished in our Minnesota shop once you spec it.

02 / Finish range

Twelve finishes. No compromises.

From matte black to hand-antiqued brass. Free finish samples whenever the swatch deck isn't enough — which is always.

03 / Human help

One rep. One email. Real answers.

Chase handles your account. Quote requests get a draft order back in 24 hours. No ticket queues, no auto-responders.

04 / Spec-ready

CAD, Revit, spec sheets.

Every fixture ships with documentation your drafter won't curse at. Downloadable the second you're approved.

05 / Lead times you can plan around

6-10 weeks, honest.

We won't promise four and deliver twelve. If something's running long, you hear it from us first — not your GC.

06 / Net terms

Net 30 after your first order.

Because paying up front on every project is a pain. Once you've placed one clean order, the training wheels come off.

The whole toolkit, not just a coupon.

They pick up the phone. They send real samples. They build what they say they'll build. After fifteen years of specifying lighting, that shouldn't feel rare. It does. — Designer testimonial placeholder
Frequently asked

The short answers.

Who qualifies?
Interior designers, architects, design-build firms, set decorators, showrooms, and independent professionals actively working on design projects. If you spec fixtures for a living — or a big part of it — you qualify.
How fast is approval?
Most applications are auto-approved within minutes. Anything that needs a human look goes to Chase and gets a decision inside 48 hours.
Is the discount the same across all products?
Yes — 20% off retail on everything in the catalog. For larger, ongoing relationships, we build custom pricing programs. Chase will reach out if that's a fit.
Do you do project quotes?
Always. Email Chase with the fixture list, finishes, quantities, and project timing. Draft order back in 24 hours. Quotes are good for 30 days.
What about lead times?
Standard lead time is 6-10 weeks from order confirmation. Custom finishes or larger runs may add time — but we'll tell you before you commit, not after.
Can I get CAD or Revit files?
Yes. Every fixture has CAD, Revit, and PDF spec documentation. Downloadable from the product page once you're logged in as trade.
I've bought from you before on the old wholesale program. Do I need to reapply?
Nope. We've already migrated you. Check your inbox for a welcome email — your pricing is preserved and your account is ready to log in.
Ready when you are
