Commercial Christmas lights and displays
Giant wreaths on a steel frame and commercial garland in artificial greenery, lit or unlit, for building fronts, entrances, columns, railings and malls. Tell us the wall or the run and how far away people see it. We have them made in China to your colours, with the bows fixed on, and quote them landed.
What can be made
At a glance
Wreaths and garland for a building are bought for one facade, one entrance, one run of railing. They are ordered together, so the green, the light and the bows match on the facade and in the lobby.
A wreath and its garland ordered apart rarely match. Two greens, two whites and two bows show up side by side on the same facade. Ordered together, they are made from the same greenery, lights and bows, and checked against your sample before packing.
The greenery is artificial throughout: a natural-looking needle in dark green, frosted or flocked white. This page is not for a single wreath for a front door, which any shop sells from stock.
A wreath for a lamp post is a smaller size of the same wreath, and the mount that holds it to the pole is covered on the pole-mount page.
Before you ask
Size comes from distance. A wreath over an entrance is seen from the far side of the street, against the whole facade, so it has to be big. One in a lobby is seen from a few steps away. Garland is cut to each run you measure. Send a photo of the building with a measurement in it and the distance people see it from, and the drawing comes back sized to that.
A wall, an entrance, a railing, a balcony or columns, indoors or out. It decides the frame and the fixing.
From the far side of the street, from the car park or from a few steps away in a lobby. This sets the size more than anything else.
Measure each run: the railing, the balcony, the columns, the shop fronts. Garland is cut to the run, not bought by the box.
Whether people see it after dark, and whether there is power where it hangs. Lit pieces change the questions asked indoors.
The green, how full it is, frosted or plain, the white of the lights and the bow colours. Wreaths and garland are matched in one order.
Whose rules apply inside, the narrowest door on the way in, and where the pieces are kept after the season.
How a giant wreath is fixed to a wall is decided on the drawing, not on the day it goes up. A wreath on a flat facade catches the wind, so the building's engineer or your installer signs off the fixing points, and we send them the factory's drawings and weights. The frame comes apart into sections sized to the crate and the service door, and your installer puts it back together on site.
Indoors, the building or the local fire official decides which greenery and lights can go into a public space. Ask whose rules apply before anything is drawn. The test paperwork for indoor greenery is discussed and agreed with you before you order, not after the crates arrive.
Tell us, too, if a wreath will stay up on the facade all year, because that changes what the official may ask for.
A city or a downtown association that buys through a bid puts the wreaths and garland into its specification: the drawing, the colours, lit or unlit, where each piece goes, and a landed price for each line.
Price
We do not publish a unit price, because every wreath is sized to its wall and every run of garland is cut to length. Here is what moves it.
A bigger wreath needs a heavier frame, more greenery and more sections, and it fills more of the container.
Thicker garland and fuller wreaths use more needles and read better from close up. Slim garland costs less along a long run.
Light adds the strings worked through the greenery and the work of fitting them. Unlit pieces cost less and need no power.
A bow in your colours, frosting or flocking adds to each piece. Plain green costs the least.
A giant wreath needs a steel frame and fixing points drawn for the wall it hangs on.
Sea freight is priced on volume, so a wreath that splits into sections and garland coiled tight cost less to move.
Timing
We do not publish a production window for this product. It depends on your design and the quantity, so it comes with the quote, and the calendar for your order is worked back from your date and the ocean transit on your lane.
We build these to your design, so we set the date with you.
What goes wrong
Before we quote anything lit, we ask what your electrical inspector, building, insurer and fire code official will want to see, and build to that. Before you commit, we also ask the factory where its steel, PVC and copper come from.
Shipping and entry
Every wreath and length of garland on this page is made in China, by the factories that build the other lighting goods we supply, and each piece and each crate is marked with its country of origin, China. Each wreath ships complete: its frame sections, greenery, lights and bows crated together with their fixings. Bows are fixed to the wreath or the garland before it ships, never packed loose.
Who carries duty, and what happens if the rate changes between quote and landing, is stated on every quote. How that works Add up a landed cost
The record
We do not name customers without written permission, and we do not ask them to be references. What we can show is the paperwork.
Custom display structures and lighting consumables over six seasons, several containers a year, with the customs entry filed by us each time.

Questions
Retail shops sell wreaths for a front door. For a building, a mall or a downtown, a giant wreath is made to order: from a commercial decor catalogue, from a leased package, or made to your wall and your colours, as we do. We have ours made in China, with garland to match, and quote them landed.
Size it to the wall and to where people see it from, not to a catalogue size. A wreath over an entrance seen from the far side of the street has to fill a good part of the facade above the door. One in a lobby is seen from a few steps away and can be much smaller. Send a photo of the wall with a measurement in it, and the drawing comes back sized to it.
If people see them after dark, yes: unlit greenery all but disappears at night. Lit pieces need power where they hang and change what the building asks indoors. Unlit pieces suit a lobby by day or a facade that is already floodlit. Many orders mix the two.
On fixing points drawn for that wall, decided on the drawing and not on the day. A giant wreath on a flat facade catches the wind, so the building's engineer or your installer signs off how it is fixed, and we send them the factory's drawings and weights. Your installer hangs it.
That is for the building and the local fire code official to decide, so ask them first. Greenery that goes into a public space needs flame test paperwork, and what that paperwork is gets discussed and agreed with you before you order. Lit pieces raise their own questions indoors, so say which pieces are lit.
Yes, when they are ordered together. The wreaths and the garland are made from the same greenery, in the same white light and with the same bows, and checked against your sample across every piece before they are packed.
Yes. Gold, navy, silver, white, deep green or the colours of your brand. Every bow is fixed to its wreath or its length of garland before it ships, so it arrives on the piece, matched and ready to hang.
