Industrial Outdoor Lighting & Lights

How do we define industrial outdoor lighting?
Industrial outdoor lighting is lighting equipment that is suitable to any environment—including hazardous environments—and capable of producing any necessary or desired light levels that are called for by the situation. See our photometric lighting examples.

What outdoor lighting products make up these systems?
Industrial outdoor lighting systems are composed of many different types of products. Pole lighting is used for a number of applications, most common of which is parking lot lighting. Pole lights are also used for general area lighting, such as coal lighting, and general outdoor work lighting. You also see pole lights of all sorts used along roadways and driveways that run through large commercial properties. Entrances and exits to properties are also marked by light poles.

Floodlights—some of the brightest industrial outdoor lights—are used to maintain perimeter security. Wall packs light sidewalk areas that run next to building walls. Canopy lights illuminate walkways that connect commercial buildings. Bollards are popular sources of both decorative and functional lighting along trails and near landscape architectural features such as commercial ponds. Such areas also tend to spice things up a bit on the decorative side of things with architectural lights, pond lights, and fountain lights.

Finally, the company brand should always be showcased clearly for all to see. Sign lights and gooseneck lights can be mounted in a variety of configurations to illuminate both monumentation and building facades.

What businesses need them the most?
There are two places that require the very best industrial outdoor lighting systems: the corporate headquarters and any manufacturing facility.

Regardless of the industry type or nature, headquarters must look attractive and establish a clear correspondence between lighting theme and corporate brand. Factories do not need this aesthetic element, but they do require precisely calculated levels of light and the very best in fixture engineering to produce glare-free light.

What are the most important design considerations that require the help of experts like RLLD to consider?
We plan and develop industrial outdoor lighting systems with the most advanced industrial lighting design software available. This software will simulate the behavior of various fixture types and determine which equipment options will work best for your needs. This saves you money by eliminating costly over purchasing and ensures you get exactly the photometric lighting design you need.

How are the various components chosen and configured as a unified system?
We first analyze the size of the facility. Obviously an area such as a mall parking lot will use more light poles than a small convenience store. Secondly, the general lay of the land has to be considered. Some parts of the country are hilly, or even mountainous, and this unevenness of terrain affects light distribution patterns. Finally, the lighting requirements of the type of business are factored into the equation to produce a photometric parking lot design program that satisfies the architectural, spatial, and functional demands of the property.

What types of savings can RLLD offer its clients?
By investing a reasonable fee in an architectural lighting design plan, you gain significant savings by knowing up front exactly what you need before you mistakenly buy the wrong fixtures or buy too many fixtures. You never need to worry about over lighting an area or under lighting an area. An industrial outdoor lighting design plan is also very flexible—offering you variation in light levels based upon the actual need for light in that area. In certain areas such as warehouse loading docks, you will need brighter lighting for safety. In areas where work is not occurring, you only need general lighting for adequate visibility.

If you buy your industrial outdoor products from us, we will refund the value of the photometric design by deducting it from your equipment purchase invoice. This will also save you money on service charges.
