Church Lighting

When William Crenshaw founded Crenshaw Lighting in 1957, he specialized in lighting houses of worship. In the almost 60 years since then Crenshaw Lighting has remained dedicated to those roots by crafting both custom and standard lighting for churches in virtually every style and scale. We draw upon this rich experience every time we approach a new church lighting project. Currently, lighting for houses of worship represents nearly a third of projects in production.
