Fred, I am disappointed that you still have so much bare wall space !!!! Harvey probably thinks I had been there already. ------------- Good judgment comes from experience.

Fred looks good! Now, I have been waiting, now I need to ask! Why the dark plugs/switches, and light colored covers? I see that you did LOTS of outlets for the right reasons, signs, etc. as well as the lights. And why the plug/switch combo, to control the outlet? They appear to be low, or just the picture angle? Not going there!! LOL

Ok The outlet and swith combo on the bottom are, the switch is for just the outlets above it on the wall for lighted signs ETC. The outlet on the bottom is hot all the time .There are 17 outlets around the top of the wall all are going to be used .
Over at the walk in door where you come in , are 6 switches for combo of the lights on the ceiling. Anyway I know what they are all for .I think.There is a switch for every lighted sign .
