A Closer Look At d-lite
![Construction News Image](https://www.construction.co.uk/newsimages/1_271956_d-lite-March-PR.jpg)
At d-lite, the lighting & electrical specialists in Richmond, the recently refurbished boutique showroom is now supported by an improved website.
The updated site includes changes to navigation, with improved search and filter functions for both mobile and desktop versions. The content structure has been improved, making it far more intuitive and improves your experience of selecting products with d-lite.
One important new feature is the 'Wish-List' function, which was seen as being vital when selecting bulk and multiple products for a project. This not only qualifies you for a project discount but, critically, d-lite can sanity check the list before firing over a quotation.
You can also take a closer look by stepping into their 360 view on Google Maps which, combined with the website, provides a smooth transition between the physical showroom and the array of helpful online content.
This all goes a long way to improving visibility and saving time and pain on the project in the long run.
