Driveway Lighting
Is your driveway too dark? McNae Electrical Systems can install a variety of different types of lighting. The choice is yours.

In-ground luminaries
Energy-efficient LED fittings
Pole lamps
Traditional or modern
Coloured & remote control options
Tree floodlighting
LED Floodlights
McNae Electrical Solutions supply various sizes of LED Floodlights. If you're lighting a suburban backyard, it's not usually the size of a football field, so you won't need the power and expense of a commercial floodlight. You need something that's fit for purpose. That's where we can help.
Why choose an LED floodlight?
They are up to 90% more energy efficient than a halogen equivalent
They operate reliably in cold temperatures (normally down to -20°C)
They are resistant to shock or vibration
Their long lifespan reduces maintenance, making them a good choice for difficult-to‑reach areas
McNae Group supplies and installs solar systems across the lower North Island. Solar electric panels on your roof can save you money - slashing your electricity bill!
Thermographic imaging
Infrared thermography is a non-invasive way to detect faults in electrical and mechanical systems before they fail—helping reduce downtime and risk.
What we do
Our technician visits your site with a specialised infrared camera to identify heat anomalies in your systems. We then provide a clear report outlining what was inspected, any issues found, and our recommendations.
When to inspect?
Annual inspections are common, but timing depends on your equipment, business type, and risk level. Inspections should be done while systems are running at full capacity to detect faults under load.
McNae’s experienced team provides clear reports highlighting problem areas—many of which can be fixed on the spot, saving you time and money.
