Interior Workspace Solutions
What type of lighting do you need? Here are some commonly used indoor LED lights.
High bay lights: If you have an indoor operation with high ceilings, you’ll need these lights. You can get them to work as regular lighting, area lighting, floodlighting, and other settings. They’re ideal for factories, gyms, warehouses, and indoor arenas.
Vapor tight lights: These specialty fixtures are designed for challenging environments of all kinds. The sealed casing protects the bulbs from fumes, smoke, dust, and toxins. They’re ideal for construction sites, fire hydrants, restaurant kitchens, and emergency dispatch stations. They’re also a good choice for docks, open-air pavilions, and stadiums.
Flat-panel and recessed troffer fixtures: These flat lighting fixtures install easily in any ceiling. They are designed to replace fluorescent lights in an office, commercial, and industrial settings. They don’t flicker or stutter the way traditional fluorescents do. When you turn them on, you get bright, instant illumination.
Industrial strip lights: When you need fast, additional lighting for dark areas, install these lights. They’re larger and more powerful than the strip lights you see for residential use. You can install them on walls, high ceilings or dedicated workspaces to create additional lighting where you most need it.

Keep your outdoor areas bright and reduce your liability with these exterior solutions.
Canopy lights: Replace the existing lights on your gas station, greenhouse, farm building, repair shop, or other outdoor structure with durable, long-lasting LED canopy lights.
Shoebox lights: These are LED bulbs specifically designed for outdoor use in parking lots or as street illumination. LED lighting is an efficient, money-saving, time-saving replacement for metal halide bulbs.
Wall pack lights: These lights mount to the side of a building to illuminate walkways, driveways, and large areas. When you choose wall packs, you must choose the direction of the light. There are three types, and you will probably want a combination of them:
- Standard wall packs distribute light downward and outward.
- Cutoff wall packs send light directly downward.
- Up and down wall packs send light both upward and downward.
- Motion sensor lights: Increase security with LED lights that allow your customers and employees to walk-in safe, bright lighting at all times. LED bulbs provide better picture resolution to security cameras, which is another reason they’re the right choice for security lighting.
