ADVERTORIAL: One partner for every part of the dealership

Building a new dealership, modernising an ageing workshop or preparing for the latest OEM facility audit often means coordinating multiple suppliers, contractors and installation teams. Bright Focus offers a simpler approach, providing everything from workshop equipment and parts storage to service reception solutions and EV-ready facilities through a single point of contact.

The real cost of a fragmented project

A dealership upgrade can involve a surprising number of specialists. One supplier provides the lifts, another installs the workbenches, while others handle racking, storage, service reception equipment, signage and staff facilities.

While this may seem straightforward, the hidden costs often emerge later. Inconsistent finishes and layouts can affect brand compliance, delayed deliveries can increase workshop downtime, and resolving issues between multiple suppliers can become a project of its own.

For dealer groups working across several sites, maintaining a consistent standard can be especially challenging when different contractors are used at each location.

Everything the dealership needs from one source

Bright Focus combines design, manufacturing, installation and after-sales support under a single contract. Projects begin with detailed AutoCAD layouts and are completed by the company's own installation teams.

Its offering covers virtually every area of a dealership operation. Workshop solutions include modular workstation systems in the Lux, Compact and Express ranges, workbenches, tool trolleys, industrial seating and specialist workshop equipment such as engine stripping benches, parts washers, oil and air reel systems and pillar protection.

The company also supplies lifting equipment, including Rotary two-post lifts, motorcycle lifts, transmission jacks and engine hoists, alongside King Tony hand tools, tool storage systems, oil management equipment and recycling stations.

From parts departments to EV bays

Storage solutions range from standard parts racking to specialised systems for tyres, oils, windscreens, body panels and hanging components installed to SEMA standards. Rack-supported mezzanines, security cages, hazardous-material storage and special-tools rooms can also be incorporated into the facility design.

As the automotive industry evolves, dealerships are increasingly preparing for electrified vehicle servicing. Bright Focus offers EV-ready workshop solutions that include safety zoning, floor systems, barriers, signage, insulated tools arc-rated PPE, test and diagnostic equipment, EV battery lift tables and lithium-ion fire protection, including Fire Cloak blankets and Lith-Ex extinguishers.

The complete range is set out in the Bright Focus Dealership Solutions brochure, available at www.brightfocus.biz

Beyond the workshop

The company's services extend beyond workshop floors and parts departments. Service reception equipment, mobile and wall-mounted job card holders, dispenser trolleys, canteen furniture and change-room lockers are all available as part of a complete dealership solution.

Bright Focus also undertakes custom fabrication and shopfitting projects, including showroom display units, worktops and cabinetry, as well as the refurbishment of existing OEM furniture. Fully equipped mobile workshop vehicles are also available for manufacturers and dealer groups requiring support away from traditional dealership locations.

Engineered to recognised standards

Bright Focus manufactures to ISO 9001:2015 standards and installs storage systems in accordance with SEMA requirements while ensuring dealership facilities align with OEM specifications.

Led by founder and Managing Director Gavin Donald, who has more than three decades of mechanical engineering experience, the company supports each project with engineering drawings, compliance certificates and installation documentation.

Whether the goal is a new dealership, a workshop refurbishment or preparation for a brand-standard audit, every project starts with a detailed site assessment and layout plan designed to ensure all elements work together as a complete solution.

It starts with a layout

Planning a new dealership, upgrading an existing workshop or preparing for a brand-standard audit? Bright Focus will visit the site, take measurements and prepare a layout for the workshop and parts department before any equipment is manufactured.
