LED Canopy Lighting: A Solution for Parking Deck Lighting

The key to keeping parking deck users comfortable is the quality of light it illuminates. Parking deck lighting should be uniform and bright throughout the stucture. Studies have shown that parking decks have long been an ideal target for criminals and other ne'er do-wells. One of the reasons this holds true is because many parking decks are poorly lit. Poor lighting produces shadows and minimum visibility. What can make a parking deck more inviting? A better quality of lighting of course. You can address this issue by converting to LED Canopy lighting.

Because parking decks are a multi-level construct that store large numbers of vehicles, they can be more difficult to light. When lighting a parking deck, where the cars are stored on each level is taken into consideration. Places that often fall through the cracks when thinking of lighting include stairwells, elevators, pedestrian entrances, and exits. Those locations are just as important as the parking spaces and should be illuminated just as well. Canopy lighting can help alleviate some of these issues.

Canopy lights are ceiling mounted lights that are designed to hang tough against weather and unauthorized tampering. This makes canopy lighting ideal for indoor and outdoor use. LED canopy lights differ from other surface mounted lights because they are suitable for wet locations.

LED Canopy Lights Offer:

• 120 beam angles. The wider angle allows larger areas to be illuminated.

• Offer color temperatures from 3000k to 5700k.

• Dimmable bulbs

• Longer life spans, lasting up to 50,000 hours.

• Instant-on without flicker.

  • A dimmed light draws less energy than a light fully illuminated.
  • Bulbs with longer life require less maintenance, which saves you money.
  • These lights don't need to warm up so there is no wait time for them to come on.

• Are more energy efficient than High Pressure Sodium and High Intensity Discharge lights.

The LED outdoor canopy light is ideal for garages, gas stations, warehouses, walkways, and stairwells. This is because it can handle extreme temperatures and wet conditions. LED garage ceiling lights are typically mounted at a minimum height of 8 feet. However, these lights can also be surface mounted to the wall.
