Lighting Installations
Bad lighting makes a great space feel ordinary. Whether you’re renovating a weatherboard in Williamstown or fitting out a new build in Point Cook, the right lighting setup makes a massive difference. And in Melbourne, where winter gives you about 6 hours of decent daylight, good indoor lighting isn’t optional. Electrx installs everything from simple pendant swaps to full LED downlight fitouts. All work under REC licence 31135.
For commercial spaces, clinics, offices, retail fit-outs, lighting isn’t just about looks. It’s about compliance, energy costs, and making a space functional for the people working in it eight hours a day. We work with business owners and property managers across Footscray, Sunshine North, and surrounds to deliver lighting that meets Australian standards and actually performs.
As preferred installers for Beacon Lighting, we’re across the full product range and can advise on what works for your layout and budget without pushing you toward something you don’t need.

LED Upgrades, Why Bother
If your home still has halogen downlights, you’re paying 5-10x more to run them compared to LED. Halogens also pump out serious heat, a real fire risk in ceiling spaces packed with insulation. We’ve pulled old halogens out of homes in Altona and Deer Park where the insulation was scorched brown around every fitting. It’s more common than people realise.
LED downlights run cool, last 25,000+ hours, and the light quality has come a long way from the cold, bluey tint of early models. Warm white, cool white, adjustable colour temperature, you can match the feel of any room without compromising on efficiency. We can swap halogens to LED in most cases without changing the hole size, which keeps your ceiling intact and the job fast.
For a typical three-bedroom home, a full halogen-to-LED changeover usually takes half a day and starts paying for itself within the first year on your energy bill.
Outdoor Lighting for Melbourne’s West
Outdoor lighting needs to handle all of it without corroding, shorting out, or looking terrible after one season. That means weatherproof fittings, correct IP ratings for exposed areas, and cabling that isn’t just clipped to the outside of your wall by someone in a hurry.
Garden lighting, driveway bollards, alfresco area lighting, all need to be wired and IP-rated for outdoor exposure. We handle the wiring, transformer, and timer setup so everything runs properly from day one. A well-lit entrance deters opportunists and stops you fumbling for keys at 6pm in July. Sensor lights across driveways and side gates give you visibility without running up the power bill.
For entertaining areas, dimmable LEDs under a pergola or recessed strip lighting along garden beds turn a basic backyard into somewhere you’d actually want to sit on a Friday night.
Whether you’re in Williamstown copping salt air or out in Hoppers Crossing where new estates come with nothing but a bare patio and a power point, we’ll recommend fittings that actually last and a setup that makes sense for how you use the space.
