Lighting System Design
Reputable Lighting and Lighting Control Solutions in the Greater Toronto Area
The right lighting transforms how people experience a space; functionally, visually, and economically. At Bold Engineering, we offer lighting and lighting control system design in the GTA that combines performance, efficiency, and ease of use. Whether it’s a commercial, residential, or institutional project, our experience and industry expertise will provide you with the long-lasting results you need.
The Importance of Lighting Control System Design
Lighting control system design plays a vital role in balancing energy efficiency, occupant comfort, and operational flexibility within your building. A well-designed system allows you to adjust lighting levels based on occupancy, daylight availability, and specific usage needs, reducing unnecessary energy consumption while supporting a comfortable environment for users.
Smart controls can also extend the life of your lighting equipment and reduce maintenance costs by minimizing overuse. For commercial and institutional buildings, thoughtful lighting control design supports compliance with energy codes and sustainability goals while providing the flexibility to adapt to changing space needs over time.
Lighting System Design
We design lighting systems that support the use of the space and align with building code, energy targets, and user comfort. Our team will assess the function of each area, whether it’s a high-traffic hallway, a detailed work zone, or a dimmable lounge space, and build a plan that works. We specify fixtures, control points, zoning, and mounting methods, and every design includes a photometric analysis to show light levels and distribution.
We work with LED, low-voltage, emergency, and specialty lighting across all project types.
Lighting Control System Design
Control systems help reduce waste, improve comfort, and adapt lighting to how a space is actually used. Our experts provide lighting control system design that includes occupancy sensors, time-based schedules, daylight response, and user-override options. We’ll help you choose between standalone controls and integrated systems that can tie into BAS or AV setups.
We document every component, from switches to relays to dimmers to software interfaces, so the installation is clear and easy to commission.

It’s the process of designing how lighting is turned on, dimmed, scheduled, and managed across different zones of a building. A well-planned design supports energy efficiency while improving comfort and usability for occupants.
Controls save energy, extend fixture life, and help comply with energy codes and green building standards. They also allow spaces to adapt to different uses without costly rewiring or fixture changes.
Options include manual dimmers, occupancy sensors, timers, daylight sensors, and digital interfaces with full programmability. The right mix depends on your building’s size, occupancy patterns, and energy goals.
Yes, many systems can connect with BAS for centralized control and scheduling. This integration allows facility teams to manage lighting, HVAC, and other systems from a single interface for better efficiency.
Some do, especially networked or programmable systems. We recommend regular testing and updates to maintain performance, resolve software issues, and keep up with occupancy or space changes.
Yes, we design for outdoor environments, including pole lighting, wall packs, and bollards with code-compliant spacing and levels. We also consider energy efficiency, safety, and light pollution when designing exterior lighting plans.
We use photometric software that models the space, fixture specs, and layout to confirm light coverage and uniformity. This ensures each area meets recommended light levels for comfort, safety, and compliance.
Wired systems connect physically, while wireless ones use radio or Wi-Fi signals, and each has advantages depending on the building. Wireless options are often easier to retrofit, while wired systems may offer higher reliability in some applications.
No, even small offices or multi-unit residences benefit from smart control systems that reduce energy waste and improve usability. Lighting control can help lower operational costs while enhancing the user experience in any size space.
