Our Work
Benefits
Future-Proof Commercial Upgrades
We deploy scalable, code-compliant systems like Lutron Vive and Caséta Pro for wireless expansion, 0–10V dimming for LED retrofits, and daylight/occupancy sensors to meet Title 24. Where appropriate, we integrate networked lighting controls, receptacle control relays, and demand-response readiness so your space adapts as tenants change. Our device selections consider LED driver compatibility, surge events, and load diversity to deliver reliable performance now and a clear path for tomorrow.
Code-Compliant Installations Every Time
Shaffer Construction manages Glendale permits, submittals, and inspections, and builds to the 2022 California Electrical Code with local amendments. We meet Title 24 Part 6 for nonresidential lighting controls and receptacle control (Section 130.5(d)), ADA height/clearance rules, and UL/NEMA listing requirements. We prepare one-lines, panel schedules, and acceptance testing coordination to streamline approvals and avoid costly rework or inspection delays.
Expertise You Can Trust
We use commercial spec-grade devices from Lutron, Leviton, Hubbell, and Pass & Seymour, copper conductors (THHN/THWN-2 in EMT), and tamper-resistant, WR, or hospital-grade options where required. Connections are torque-verified to manufacturer specs, and devices are labeled per panel directory updates. We test with circuit analyzers and verify GFCI/AFCI functions where applicable, ensuring long-lasting, safe installations that withstand Glendale’s daily commercial demands.
Customized Planning & Design
Our process starts with a walkthrough to document loads, device counts, control zones, and tenant operations. We confirm LED driver compatibility, plan 0–10V runs, and identify GFCI/WR needs. For landlords, we align with building standards; for tenants, we tailor layouts for workflow and branding. We also plan after-hours work to minimize downtime, coordinate access with property managers, and stage materials for fast, clean turnover.
What We Offer
Frequently Asked Questions
Do I need a Glendale permit to replace outlets and switches in my commercial suite?+
Like-for-like device swaps typically don’t require a permit. If you add new outlets, run new circuits, modify lighting controls, or work in assembly/medical occupancies, a permit and inspection are usually required. We’ll review your scope during the walkthrough and handle any City of Glendale Building & Safety permit needs.
Which dimmer type should I use with my LED fixtures?+
It depends on the driver: many commercial LEDs use 0–10V dimming; some require ELV or phase-cut dimmers. We test fixture drivers, select compatible Lutron dimmers or controls, and set low-end trim to prevent flicker and drop-out. Proper pairing ensures smooth dimming and longer fixture life.
What are Title 24 receptacle control requirements for offices in Glendale?+
California Title 24 Part 6 generally requires a portion of receptacles in certain spaces to be automatically controlled (time-of-day or occupancy) and marked as controlled. We design and label controlled outlets per Section 130.5(d), commission schedules/sensors, and document compliance for acceptance testing.
Can you work after hours at the Americana or Glendale Galleria?+
Yes. We coordinate with property management, provide certificates of insurance, follow loading dock and security procedures, and schedule after-hours or early morning work to minimize disruption. Our team protects floors and fixtures, contains dust, and completes installations so you can open on time.
