Lighting where visible equipment must be discreet
Discreet equipment still needs a useful position and service access. The estimate should address placement and maintenance rather than rely on hiding every component behind landscaping.
Discuss how fixtures and connection points can be reached for service. Discreet placement should not be confused with making equipment inaccessible behind permanent landscaping.
Can discreet equipment remain serviceable?
Hiding a fixture behind planting or permanent finishes can make future access difficult. The visible effect and the ability to reach equipment need consideration together.
Review the intended location and maintenance approach before installation. MKB can define suitable connections and control arrangements while keeping landscape or finish work separate, rather than equate unobtrusive appearance with equipment that cannot practically be reached.
Details to include with this request
