Exterior Wall Pack Lighting Installation in Taylors, SC

Touchstone Electric’s Greenville branch recently completed an exterior wall pack lighting installation for Spring Grove MF IV LLC in Taylors, SC. Our crew installed customer-supplied wall pack fixtures and configured reliable dusk-to-dawn operation using integrated photocell controls. This project was completed on May 14, 2025 by technicians Hunter Cox, Clay Barnette, and Grady Houston.

As a local contractor specializing in Lighting & Ceiling Fans and Lighting Installation, we focus on clean, code-conscious workmanship and dependable outdoor illumination that keeps properties safe and inviting after dark.

What We Did

Installed new exterior wall pack fixtures at designated mounting locations.
Configured each fixture to operate via its photocell for true dusk-to-dawn lighting.
Blank-switched the interior switch legs so the wall packs are not dependent on manual switches.
Verified proper photocell operation during commissioning and confirmed automatic night activation/daytime shutoff.

This approach ensures the wall packs illuminate reliably every evening without the risk of someone accidentally turning them off from inside.

Why Photocell-Controlled Wall Packs?

Automatic safety and security: Lights come on at dusk and turn off at dawn—no manual oversight needed.
Consistent coverage: Entrances, walkways, and building perimeters remain illuminated during key nighttime hours.
Reduced user error: Blanking interior switches prevents accidental shutoffs that can leave areas dark.
Operational efficiency: Lights run only when needed, helping manage energy use while maintaining visibility.

Our Installation Standards

For exterior lighting, reliability and neat execution matter. Our team routes conductors and terminations with care, secures fixtures to appropriate substrates, and confirms correct line-voltage polarity, grounding, and control orientation. We also test photocell response to ensure each unit transitions properly between daytime and nighttime modes before we leave the site.

On this Taylors project, blanking the interior switches was critical to deliver fully automated operation. After blanking, we verified that the circuits are live to the fixtures and that the photocells independently manage on/off cycles as intended.
