FREEPORT, NY, March 6, 2008 – Sentry Electric is America’s most knowledgeable manufacturer of quality historic outdoor lighting. The extensive selection of Sentry luminaries, poles, bollards and accessories will soon be available on the company’s web site, including a wide range of standard, exclusive and custom designed products. Sentry fixtures are made predominantly of cast iron and aluminum; they light and embellish prestigious urban and university settings. The following are a few examples of the company’s historically styled and contemporary products:

The Central Park Luminaire was created to meet the needs of the classic New York setting for which it was named.  Its design and construction needed a sense of old-world charm that fit the location’s history, but also needed to stand up to northwestern weather and potential vandals.  Its arching, bas relief ornamentation and tulip bell silhouette led this model to win a Central Park Conservancy design competition. A polycarbonate globe and high strength cast aluminum structure make this Sentry exclusive extremely durable.

The Indianapolis Luminaire was similarly designed to brighten that city’s upscale Lower Canal Park, but is now available to add grandeur to any outdoor setting. Its dual toned, Neo art deco lines accent its incised parallel struts, prominent octagonal rim and other linear ornamentation. A larger-than-average size lantern and cast aluminum structure makes it impressive in both scale and strength.

The stately, clean lines of the Binghamton Luminaire include a tulip-contoured polycarbonate globe and strap-like struts, topped by a tall, regal finial, adding subtle refinement to any setting from a busy intersection to a quiet park lane. In-demand cast-aluminum construction makes it a robust model.

Sentry Electric often works with architects and designers to produce a custom, copyright protected design to the customer’s unique specifications, adding exclusive accents to urban, park or university environments. Renowned in the industry for its experience in developing specs through installation and any troubleshooting, Sentry is committed to making sure its customers are satisfied from start to finish. The company has earned the tag line “From Specs to Spectacular” through a history of diligent work on landscaping projects of all scales, reflecting its commitment to assisting engineers, architects, city officials and contractors through every phase.
