German term

geordnete Sichtinstallationen

German to English Tech/Engineering
One (of several) cryptic entries in an attachment to a lease:
"Untergeschoss: Installationen: geordnete Sichtinstallationen"
Can anybody help me? Please?

with finished, outside-the-wall fixtures

geordnete here means finished, e.g. fully insulated, coated and painted fixtures. Outside-the-wall would sound to American ears a bit less gauche then 'visible' ('cause 'visible' here is actually a negative)

ordered/sequenced visible installations

Sichtinstallationen are installations that are on top of the plaster (Auf Putz) and are visible as opposed to being buried under plaster.

I'm not sure about the geordnete bit though.

orderly visible fittings

"Sichtbare Installationen" in your context means the pipes, cables, etc. which are not concealed (Unterputz).
