High Ceiling Light Fixture Installation in Charlotte, NC

Touchstone Electric’s Charlotte team completed a safe and efficient light fixture installation for Corman in Charlotte, NC. This project involved a customer-supplied fixture mounted on an existing electrical box at a challenging height exceeding 14 feet.
