Monument protection
The historic staircase of the castle is a real gem and is under special protection. Structural changes to the banisters were therefore not permitted. Nevertheless, emergency lighting up to the assembly point was required by law. The circumstances therefore not only required careful planning, but ultimately also the approval of the authorities and the heritage office.
The STRING ARC emergency sign luminaire was installed flush into an existing column (free-standing, monolithic pillar). A locksmith provided the necessary opening and we attached the lighting to the pillar with magnetic strips. Despite the limited space, we found enough room behind the stele for the necessary electronics. The result was the perfect solution for the staircase in the castle, which retains the historical charm without having to make any changes to the banisters.
Monument protection
The installation of emergency lighting for an exhibition room was planned in this listed building. In order to preserve the listed building and avoid structural changes to the masonry without compromising the historical ambience, a suitable escape route was to be realised.
Monument protection
For historical reasons, the existing luminaire housing could not be removed and adapted for this project. It was also not permitted to drill any additional holes.
