What is high bay lighting, and what applications benefit from it?

Whenever a large indoor space needs to be illuminated, high bay lighting, is usually appropriate. Consider spaces like manufacturing facilities, gymnasiums, warehouses, large department stores, factories, and more; these facilities are typically vast and cover a lot of vertical as well as horizontal space. This requires powerful lighting to provide the appropriate foot-candle levels to adequately illuminate. High bay lighting fixtures typically hang from the ceiling via hooks, chains or pendants, or they may be fixed to the ceiling directly.

Various industries and facilities require high bay lighting. Some of the most common are:

• Warehouses
• Industrial facilities
• Manufacturing facilities
• School and university gymnasiums
• Municipal facilities like community centers or recreation centers
• Commercial applications like department stores

With their high levels of performance adding to the functionality of the space, industrial lights are an important part of any commercial or factory setting. Fortunately, we stock a huge selection of industrial lights for your needs. From high bay fixtures ranging from LED, T5, T8, and T5HO and Compact Fluorescent Lights (CFL) to low bay fixtures ranging from LED, T8, T5, T5HO, and CFL, we have every fixture you could possibly need for this application.

We know that industrial lights are an important part of your business which is why we offer a wide selection of high bay fixtures, low bay fixtures, strip fixtures, retrofit kits, used fixtures, vapor tight and wet location fixtures, and hazardous area/explosion proof fixtures. Each of these options is specially tailored to the needs and requirements of a certain commercial area and, when chosen correctly, can help your commercial or warehouse space perform better than ever before.

High Bay Fixtures and Industrial Low Bays

All of our low bay and high bay fixtures are available in several options styles like linear, UFO and traditional round as well as lighting sources like T5, T8, and high efficiency LED. For areas with low ceilings, our low bay lamps provide a pleasing light source. For areas with high, vaulted ceilings or large buildings in need of extra power, high bay fixtures provide a concentrated light spread without losing concentration from being placed so high up. 

Strip Lighting

Shop our selection of industrial strip lights which are perfect for large spaces that need high-quality illumination without bulk. Whether you’re looking for 4-foot or 8-foot lengths, we feature products that are available with T8, T5HO and LED technology. We also offer smaller options ideal for lighting tight spaces in any business.

Vapor Tight/Wet Locations/Explosion Proof/Hazardous

Choose wet location fixtures for areas where the moisture level is high enough to ruin standard fixtures. Hazardous area fixtures or explosion proof fixtures for spaces where chemical vapors are prevalent are a must have for such a tough environment. Whether shopping for wet or hazardous locations, these fixtures offer the right ratings to ensure performance and durability for the toughest of settings.

Small Space

For tight spaces such as closets or storage areas, small space industrial fixtures are a necessity. We offer these options in several sizes and styles, as well as various operational specifications, to ensure you get the right fit for the dynamics of the space.
