About Capitol Lighting and 1800LightingPRO

Whether you're seeking the ultimate chandelier, new fixtures for a kitchen remodel, stunning nighttime landscape effects or a complete lighting package to showcase your new home, Capitol Lighting stands ready to serve.

Capitol's nine stores are the offspring of a family retailing tradition that dates back to 1924, when Max Lebersfeld, an electrical contractor and recent immigrant from Austria-Hungary, opened a light fixture store in Newark, NJ. Four generations later, Capitol Lighting has expanded the concept to five locations in New Jersey and four in southeast Florida and in 2002 Capitol Lighting was given the award for New Jersey's Family Business of the Year. Today, says Owner and President Herman Lebersfeld, "we have the largest inventory on hand and on display of any lighting retailer on the East Coast." The typical Capitol Lighting store spans 12,000 square feet, which allows room for a huge selection. While many lighting showrooms boast a wide selection, Capitol Lighting actually delivers.

That ability to see so many products firsthand is a distinct benefit when it comes to outfitting a new-construction home with a complete set of fixtures. After determining the desired style, reviewing an architect's plans and visiting the home site (if requested), one of Capitol's highly trained and experienced sales and design consultants can walk a customer through the showroom and point out fixtures that will meet the project's needs.

With the success of Capitol Lighting’s 1800lighting.com, we set out to develop the most comprehensive online design and purchasing tools for premium lighting products. We have spent many months speaking with professionals like you to find out more about how we can make your jobs quicker, easier and more satisfying.
