When it comes to lighting, our Showroom is full of demonstration fixtures and stock inventory from Arri, Chauvet, ETC, Kino-Flo, Martin and Strand/Selecon. Come see for yourself before you buy the fixtures to best fit your needs. We do our own testing and evaluation to be able to recommend high quality fixtures that provide real value. We don’t sell box goods; we assemble, install plugs, lamp, test and bench focus fixtures prior to delivery. Check out our links to our Manufacturers that allows you direct access to their full product line, downloadable technical data sheets and performance specifications.

Providing dimming systems and controls requires factory training and experience to help you find the best option. We have extensive experience with ETC, Strand, Entertainment Technology and Leviton systems. We provide complete design services using LD Assistant AutoCAD with direct access to the manufacturers specification and CAD files. Most of our project design work also includes architectural lighting for the space. We are with you from design to commissioning and training. We are also there after the installation with service and support when you need it. We work directly with the electrical contractor to insure your system is properly installed and meets all the manufacturers requirements.

Cine Services has been providing and installing theatrical custom curtains for many years now. Schools and Houses of Worship are our primary customers when it comes to custom drapes. 21 oz flame retardant Velour is our most recommended and sold curtain to date. It has a beautiful look and feel with multiple colors choices. We replace old curtains or install curtains for new projects. Fabrics we carry in stock are heavy duty natural muslin in 108” and 140”, 16oz black commando cloth and 12oz black duvetyn.

Chauvet has become an outstanding manufacturer of LED and automated fixtures for production and architectural projects. We feature their products based on performance, value and customer service. Wybron has introduced the Cygnus 200W Quad LED which is in a class by itself. Vari-Lite has the ultimate LED automated fixture. LED technology is expanding rapidly in theatrical and architectural lighting with the focus on “Green” lighting, saving operating costs, HVAC, and maintenance expenses. Testing of new LED products is even more important than conventional with the market being flooded with cheap new LED fixtures from China.

As an authorized Martin Professional Dealer and service center, we can offer a product line from another manufacturer who sets the standard around the world in automated fixtures for value, performance and innovation. Just come in for a demo in our test theatre.

Electronic Theatre Controls and Strand/Selecon continue to be the industry leaders in dimming and controls as well as fixtures. We rely on these manufacturers to provide the best dimming and lighting solutions. ETC continues to introduce new lighting consoles that set the standard for installations that appreciate their products and superior customer service. Their Source IV fixtures continue to be in demand by designers around the world. ETC has expanded it’s product line to include Selador Series LED fixtures and automated rigging.

Strand has just introduced IGBT solid state dimmer modules for the C21 dimmer rack and the A21 dimmer cabinets to go with an outstanding line of control consoles. Strand Selecon provides the best performing fresnel fixtures we have ever tested. Our tests back in 2007 concluded that “Without a doubt the RAMA is the best performing 150mm fresnel I’ve ever seen. It has the smoothest, most even field from center to edge of any fresnel on the market.” Selecon adapted that into their advertising. We went on to be the highest grossing US Selecon dealer in 2008. The Pacific line of ellipsoidal zoom spots provide outstanding performance due to their heat management system. They all have interchangeable lenses and operate cool enough to use ink-jet printed images without the need for the Rosco I-Pro holder & fan.
