November 2022 Custom Work

 

Although City Theatrical manufactures a large catalogue of unique lighting accessories, we also like to do custom work, and can do it incredibly quickly. If you need a custom design or fabrication of metal lighting products, electronic design, LED power supplies, custom wireless DMX installations, or nearly any other challenge that you can come up with, call us and we will help you through it.  We’ve done custom work for major TV networks, theme parks, museums, architectural projects, and just about any other type if lighting project you can imagine.

 

 


 

Custom Accessories for Vari-Lite AURORA LED STRIP, 4 Cell
Custom Hangers for Four Cell Strand Aurora Fixture

The Strand Aurora Four Cell fixture is only 12 inches wide but is designed to hang from two points. Our customer asked us to design a hanger that would allow the units to be hung from one central clamp. We cut steel bars on our Amada fiber laser that the customer could bolt on to the units, allowing a simpler way to hang them.

Custom Louvers 33-Degree OMA
Custom Angled Louvers

Our customer asked us to design and fabricate custom angled louver panels to shape the beam and reduce the viewing angle to an architectural lighting fixture. These louvers required a complex, angled, “ice cube tray” design. Our designers created interlocking laser cut pieces that were assembled by hand, then carefully TiG welded to hold them together solidly. Finally, we coated them flat black on our conveyorized powder coat system.
