High Bay Led Lights

LED high bay lights are ideal for large industrial garage lighting, especially garages or warehouses with high ceilings. This light has high brightness and a large beam angle, which can effectively cover a large area.   In addition to its long life, LED high bay lights are also very energy-efficient, which can reduce maintenance costs.   And they are usually dustproof and waterproof, suitable for a variety of harsh environments.   Our LED high bay lights mainly include the following two types:

• UFO Round High Bay Light: UFO round high bay light: This light adopts a round design, efficient heat dissipation, and plug and play.   UFO high bay lights are usually very bright and evenly distributed, making them an investment in any smart space.
• LED Linear High Bay Light: Linear high bay lights are designed with long strips to provide wide light coverage.   They can be suspended or surface mounted to provide continuous and even light and reduce shadows.

FAQs About Best Lighting For Garages

How many LED lights do I need for my garage?

It all depends on the intended use of the garage, as well as other factors such as ceiling height, number of square feet of area to be illuminated. Generally speaking, a minimum of 50 lumens per square foot of space is recommended. This means that a 10' x 10' garage would require at least 5,000 lumens of light.

Is installing LED garage lighting difficult?

Best LED garage lights are designed to be easy to install. GGJIA's high bay and linear high bay lights come with a three-prong plug, designed to fit standard 110-277V outlets, making installation as simple as hanging the light and plugging it in. However, if you need to hardwire the connection to the garage's main power supply, we always recommend consulting the installation guide or a professional electrician, as this may vary depending on the specific model and style of the commercial garage lighting.
