About B-K Lighting
B-K Lighting was founded in 1984 and designs, engineers and manufactures in Madera, California — the company is specific that its products are made there rather than assembled there, with procurement, machining and finishing under one roof. It marked its fortieth anniversary in September 2024.
The line is exterior architectural and landscape lighting built to last outdoors: floodlights, ceiling mount and ceiling recessed, wall mount and wall recessed, bollards, poles, pole tops and catenary fixtures. Star, the powder coating division, sits inside the same facility, and TEKA Illumination is part of the same brand and manufactured alongside it — which is why the two lines share hardware conventions and finish options.
Details matter more than usual in South Florida, where an exterior fixture faces salt air, driving rain and a hurricane-season wind load. Machined housings, serviceable knuckles and a controlled finishing process are the difference between a fixture that is still aimable in year eight and one that is seized. B-K names NVIDIA, Microsoft, Amazon, Meta and Disney among its clients and runs the GreenSource Initiative and the 35K Trees campaign.

Getting B-K Lighting on your job
B-K Lighting is carried on the South Florida line card of SESCO Lighting. That is what decides who can sell it to you: lighting manufacturers appoint one representative per territory, and the rep for your job site is the one that matters — not the one nearest the manufacturer.
If it is on your schedule in South Florida, send it over and I will price the B-K Lighting lines with everything else, chase the submittals and stay on the lead times.

Lines are assigned by territory. I cover South Florida; outside it a different agency holds the line, and I will point you to the right one. Tell me where the job is and I will tell you which applies to B-K Lighting — and name the rep for your area either way. No charge, no catch.

Why ask me about it
Thirteen years in lighting in this market, most of it on the distribution side and now on the rep side of the desk. I know which lines hold a spec, which ones slip on lead time, and what the substitution is going to be when value engineering starts.

Common questions about B-K Lighting
Who is the B-K Lighting rep in South Florida?
I do. I represent this line in South Florida — if you are specifying it here, call me on 786-395-1222 and I will price it, chase samples and drawings, and keep it on the schedule through submittal.
What do I quote from the B-K Lighting line?
Most often outdoor and landscape fixtures, linear and architectural fixtures and recessed downlights. That is what I see on jobs, not the whole catalog. If you need something from B-K Lighting that is not listed there, send the model numbers and I will check it.
Can you supply B-K Lighting outside South Florida?
Not outside South Florida. SESCO holds this line for Broward, Miami-Dade, Palm Beach and Monroe counties, and I am the rep here. For a job elsewhere I will point you to the agency that holds it in that territory.
How do I get pricing on B-K Lighting?
Send the fixture schedule, the drawings or a list of model numbers through the quote form. You will get a line-by-line price and current lead times, usually within one business day. The takeoff costs you nothing.
What is B-K Lighting known for?
Machined, serviceable exterior architectural and landscape luminaires made in Madera, California. The brand is specified where fixtures must stay aimable and finished after years outdoors — uplighting on architecture, landscape and hardscape, bollards and pole-mounted accent.
Is TEKA Illumination the same company as B-K Lighting?
TEKA Illumination is part of the B-K brand and is manufactured in the same Madera facility. The two lines are quoted together and share finish and hardware conventions.
Where is B-K Lighting made?
Madera, California. The company states its products are designed, engineered and manufactured there rather than assembled from imported units, and its Star powder coating division is in the same building.
Is B-K Lighting suitable for coastal South Florida?
It is a common choice for waterfront and coastal work because of the machined housings and controlled finishing. Confirm the finish and material option for the specific site at quote time — salt exposure a block from the water and salt exposure on the water are not the same specification.

Ask me about B-K Lighting

Or call 786-395-1222, Monday to Friday, nine to five. If you have drawings or a fixture schedule to attach, use the quote form instead. For a whole project I handle fixture takeoffs, submittals and procurement across the line card.
