American-made, Outdoor Parking Lot Lights Are by Far the Best Luminaires to Offer Your Clients By Kimberly Quang At Isnare.com Ezine Articles

It is always advisable to use parking lot lights and poles that are made in the United States. American made equipment offers a greater variety of optics and reflectors. These luminaires and poles typically have 3-5 year written warranties (some poles have warranties of up to 10 years) that make domestically manufactured equipment a much better investment for you and your client.

Before purchasing equipment, a careful study of parking lot lighting standards in your client’s region should be conducted to avoid purchasing the wrong equipment for the project. Dark sky laws are being passed throughout the nation that affect parking lot lighting systems from Coast to Coast. Many contractors work in multiple cities and sometimes multiple states. They may not always have the time to research the details of local lighting regulations. Working with a lighting design specialist can eliminate the need to do so, and it can ensure that the luminaires, mounts, and poles that you propose to your client are already in full compliance with all local codes.

Parking lot lighting design services are the key to achieving compliance with all lighting regulations and client expectations. Lighting Design Software can provide an amazing calculation and rendering tool that can take the raw data of a CAD document and turn it into a three-dimensional model of the parking lot lighting system you are proposing to your client. We charge a nominal fee for this design service, which we deduct from your invoice should you decide to purchase equipment through us.

The advantage of buying parking lot lights and poles through us becomes readily apparent when you consider the fact that the photometric analysis we provide for you pinpoints exactly what you need to install and where to install it to get the best foot candle spread and lighting control for your client’s facility. This will help you avoid over purchasing equipment and help you develop a more streamlined, cost effective system for you to propose.

By matching parking lot lighting fixtures to an advanced design layout, we help you achieve a higher level of precision functionality and aesthetics for your clients.
There are small details that are critical to the entirety of every project, and letting our design team also function as a procurement channel will ensure these details are attended to in such a way that every aspect of luminance, glare control, and light spillage containment has been addressed.

Parking lot lighting poles often play much more of a key role than you might expect them to play in creating a truly superior commercial outdoor lighting system.Balancing foot candle spread with lighting standards can often place a contractor in a procurement dilemma. If fixtures alone are used as the determining factor in creating appropriate luminance, the proposal may wind up being outside of the client’s price range because more powerful—and therefore more expensive fixtures—have to be installed.

On the other hand, having access to a wide range of pole heights and pole mounting options allows you to combine elevation and angles of incidence with lower wattage luminaires. This can and does in many cases reduce overall operating costs, because more light can be produced with more sophisticated, lower wattage fixtures that provide superior illumination, visibility, safety, and directional lighting control.
