How to Set Up a Contractor Account with Rock

If you buy lighting and electrical for a living, a contractor account is the fastest way to get trade pricing and order online. Setting one up with Rock Lighting & Electric takes a few minutes, and there's no credit application to wait on. Here's how it works.

What a contractor account gets you

  • Trade pricing across the catalog of 25,000+ lighting and electrical products.
  • Online ordering so you can reorder and track without picking up the phone.
  • Project quoting, design help, and value engineering on larger jobs.
  • Free ground shipping on Lutron orders $199+ and all other brands $500+, with a flat $35 ground rate on orders below those amounts, shipped nationwide.

We don't offer credit or net terms. You pay at checkout, which also means there's no application to file and no approval to wait on before you start ordering.

How to set up your account

Create your account online in a few minutes:

  1. Go to the Create an Account page.
  2. Enter your company name, contact name, phone, and email.
  3. Upload a business document, such as your W9 or resale certificate (files under 5 MB), so we can set you up for trade pricing.
  4. Submit. Once your account is set up, sign in to see pricing and order.

Prefer to start with a quote?

If you've got a job to price before you set up an account, send it over. Request a quote with your fixture schedule, takeoff, or bill of materials, and our team will price your bill of materials at contractor pricing, including volume discounts on larger orders. See how we quote from your takeoff and what to send.

Already buying for jobs? Put us to work

A contractor account also opens up the services that save you time on every job:

  • Lutron system design from your plans — send drawings, get back an orderable parts list.
  • Value engineering on large packages — equivalent products that hold the spec and meet code, at the best price.
  • A team that knows the product and helps with model selection, code questions, and substitutions.
