History of the Hinkley Lighting Company

Hinkley Lighting Inc. was founded by Phil Hinkley in 1922. After his death the company was completely bought over by one of its partners, Stanley Wiedemer, whose sons still run this corporation today. This company started out manufacturing outdoor lighting fixtures and has evolved to creating some of the most creative lighting fixtures suitable for modern households. The reason why this company has lasted so long, creating a legacy of good will is because their products are top of the line in quality and in designs that are simply out of this world.

Types of outdoor lighting they offer

Hinkley outdoor lighting is available in many types such as lanterns, posts and pier mounts and landscape lights. The line of lanterns they offer are simply regal, in styles that are contemporary as well as traditional, making them suitable for any type of home. Their range of landscape lights include spot lights, path lighting, path lights, deck lights, step lights, accent lighting, nexus, line lights, hardy island lights and other lamps and their accessories. So if you are looking for classy and high quality lighting options, then Hinkley lighting can be the perfect lighting brand to light up your outdoors.

Energy saving options

Hinkley is a brand that has evolved over 90 years, keeping up with the standards of modern lighting, while maintaining the quality that is expected out of a company that old. Along with good looks and quality, modern lighting needs to be energy efficient as well. For this reason, they have brought out a range of energy saving lighting options, dark sky lighting with reduces the amount of heat generated to help us view the night sky and LED light options.

What makes Hinkley outdoor lighting stand out

The reason why Hinkley lighting has taken its place among the leading light manufacturers is because their latest designs, contemporary ideas backed with good quality and nearly a 100 years experience in the lighting experience make them a lighting company to be reckoned with. The main reason as to why they stand out is their ability to adapt and manufacture lighting that is appropriate for the current generation, while keeping to their old fashioned standards firmly in place.

Hinkley Lighting

Lighting info brought to you by LightingShowroom.com

Hinkley Lighting

Hinkley lighting is a family owned lighting systems manufacturer based in Cleveland, OH. They are a very old company and have been providing lighting systems to “discerning customers” as their website puts it, since 1922 when they were established. They are a well-known manufacturer in the US and have a number of unique designs that suit any interior theme for both homes as well as commercial establishments.

Like a number of other well-known lighting systems manufacturers they started small and grew over time to have a pan American presence now. They also offer direct retail marketing and you can request information on any of their products and buy directly from them. Just their website is so well made that it is a mirror of how well their products will be made too.

There is another brand called Fredrick Ramond that is part of the same company. This brand was established as a more upscale brand to Hinkley and offers lighting systems to the more particular customer.

Hinkley lighting has a number of showrooms around the country where their products are put up on display. Not only do they offer their products for sale, they will also take care of the installation and after sales service because they pride themselves on their customer service.

OK, enough said about the company then. If you take a look at Hinkley products, you will find that there are a number of unique designs that you do not find in other lighting system manufacturers. By default all their designs are really classic and even the more modern ones are a seamless blend of the old as well as the new. The impression you get is that they are favored more by designers and architects rather than retail buyers, and home owners. This is not surprising because their products are slightly on the higher side in terms of price and the lowest priced lamps are around the $70 mark. Compare this to the lesser known brands and you can get comparable ones for $40 or $50 while the unbranded ones cost much less than this.

What they are good at however is giving you something that you will not get elsewhere. If you take one of their wall sconces or chandeliers, they are all uniquely designed and you will not find another one which even comes close in terms of design except maybe in another Hinkley showroom. If you are really “discerning” about what kind of lighting you use in your home then Hinkley lighting is definitely worth a look see. Just log on to their website and browse through their gallery. Not only can you look at pictures of their products, they also give you a lot of information on how you can use certain lighting systems to the best effect possible. Although this is meant to be used with their products you could always use a good suggestion elsewhere too. For example, I have always gone with wall sconces and simple pendant lights above my bar at home, but Hinckley suggests that a couple of simple three arm chandeliers would do just as fine while giving your room a better tone. This is actually true and considering that I spent just as much on the pendant lights as I would have on a simple chandelier this is good advice.

Of all the lighting manufacturers’ website I have visited Hinkley is by far the best designed and easy to use. Although I have never personally used any of their products, just visiting their website has left a pleasant memory that will stay in my mind till the next time when I want to add something to my home. Take a look too and you may be as favorably impressed. If not, you’ve only lost about 5 minutes of your time.
