LED Area Lights

4 products

Area lights are the pole-mounted shoebox fixtures that light parking lots, yards, laneways and campus roadways. They are specified differently from flood lights: a flood throws at a face or a surface, while an area light is designed to lay an even, controlled pattern on the ground below and around it, with the cut-off needed to keep light off neighbouring property and out of the sky.

About LED Area Lights

VCAN stocks Votatec area lights at 150 W, 300 W and 500 W, all with selectable colour temperature and selectable power, plus a 300 W version whose beam angle is adjustable as well.

Why selectable output matters here

Parking lot lighting is almost always adjusted after commissioning. The photometric plan assumes a clean fixture, a specific pole height and no obstructions, and the real site has trees, a neighbouring wall and a customer who finds the far corner too dark or the entrance too bright. A fixture whose wattage and beam angle can be set on site turns that from a re-order into a service call.

Specifying one

Start with pole height and spacing, then the distribution type the layout needs — a type 3 pattern on a perimeter pole does a different job from a type 5 on a central one. Confirm the mounting: slip fitter and arm mounts are not interchangeable without an adaptor.

Send us the site plan or the pole schedule and we will quote the fixtures, the mounts and the count.
