Industrial Lighting Planning Guide

Warehouse Lighting Levels That Hold Up

Footcandle targets keep a warehouse lighting design honest. General bulk storage runs 10 to 20 fc at the floor, order picking and case work 20 to 30 fc, and assembly or inspection zones 30 to 50 fc or more. Racking changes the math: open floors light efficiently with wide-beam UFO high bays, while aisles between tall racking want linear high bays or aisle optics that push light down the slot instead of onto the rack tops. Mounting height then sets the lumen package per fixture, which is exactly how the high bay category is organized.

Ratings That Separate Industrial From Commercial LED Lighting

Commercial led lighting for offices and retail rarely needs more than a damp rating. Industrial environments add requirements: IP65 or better sealing where fixtures are hosed down, ambient temperature ratings for freezer aisles that run at minus 20 F, impact resistant polycarbonate lenses where forklifts work, and listed hazardous-location construction for areas with flammable vapors or combustible dust. Specifying the rating first and the wattage second avoids the expensive mistake of a standard fixture dying young in an environment it was never built for. Office areas, mezzanines, and front of house inside the same building are covered by the Commercial Lighting catalog.

Rebates, Spec Sheets, and Availability

Most fixtures in these categories are DLC listed, which unlocks utility rebate programs and shortens payback on retrofit projects. Spec sheets and photometric files are posted on product pages to keep bid packages complete, and stock status with lead times is listed at the item level, so you can build a fixture schedule around what is actually available. Temporary and jobsite lighting for facilities under construction lives in Construction Lights.

Industrial Lighting Matched to the Facility

This is facility lighting: fixtures specified for warehouses, production floors, cold storage, washdown bays, loading docks, and classified hazardous areas. The fastest route to the right fixture family is not a style filter, it is the facility itself, because each environment imposes its own ratings and mounting realities. The matrix below maps the common industrial spaces to the fixture family built for them, with the lumen territory each typically runs.

Frequently Asked Questions About Industrial Lighting

LED high bay fixtures are the standard for warehouse spaces with ceilings of 15 ft or more. Open floor areas suit round UFO high bays with wide beams, while aisles between racking light better with linear high bays that throw light down the slot. Match the lumen package to mounting height, then verify the layout hits 10 to 30 footcandles depending on the work performed.

Typical design targets: 10 to 20 footcandles for bulk storage, 20 to 30 for picking and packing, 30 to 50 for assembly and general manufacturing, and more for fine inspection work. The number that matters is measured at the task plane, usually the floor or bench height. Uniformity counts too; even coverage at a lower level outperforms bright spots with dark aisles.

The split is mounting height. High bay fixtures are designed for ceilings 15 ft and above, with concentrated optics that deliver light across the long throw to the floor. Low bay fixtures serve 10 to 15 ft ceilings with wider distributions and smaller lumen packages, so they cover the area without glare or wasted output. Using high bay wattages at low mounting heights wastes energy and creates harsh light.

A vapor tight fixture is a fully gasketed, sealed luminaire, typically rated IP65 or higher, that keeps out water jets, dust, and humid or corrosive air. They are the standard specification for car washes, food processing lines, parking structures, walk-in coolers, and covered exterior areas. Housings are usually impact resistant polycarbonate or fiberglass so washdown and incidental contact do not take fixtures out of service.

Explosion proof fixtures are required in locations classified under the NEC for flammable gases or vapors (Class I) or combustible dust (Class II), such as fuel handling areas, paint booths, chemical storage, and grain facilities. The area classification comes from the facility's hazard analysis, not from the fixture catalog, so confirm the Class, Division, and group with the engineer of record, then match the fixture listing to it exactly.

Check the fixture's minimum ambient temperature rating; freezer aisles commonly run to minus 20 F and standard drivers fail early in that cold. LED is the default source for cold storage since output and life improve in low temperatures, unlike fluorescent. Gasketed, sealed housings prevent condensation problems at the transition zones, and instant-on output means no warm-up period after door-triggered switching.

Most fixtures in this catalog carry DLC listings, which is the qualification most utility rebate programs require for high bays, vapor tights, and other industrial categories. Rebates are typically paid per fixture or per watt reduced and can shorten a retrofit payback meaningfully. Program rules and amounts vary by utility, so confirm your program's current requirements before finalizing the fixture schedule.
