5 Most Popular Commercial LED Lighting Fixtures

When it comes to commercial light fixtures, there’s never just 1. Walk into any Wal-Mart or Target and you can see straightaway how the light fixtures are different throughout each store. In commercial settings, light fixtures depend heavily on location, mood, and purpose. For example, the type of light fixtures used to illuminate Sam’s Club and Costco stores are usually simple warehouse light fixtures, while light fixtures in stores that supply apparel and grocery products varies depending on which section of the store you’re in.

It is obvious to say commercial settings rely on light fixtures to illuminate the interiors and exteriors of store locations, but have you ever thought about how the type of light fixtures used in commercial settings can impact a shopper’s motivation to buy products? This is precisely why there are so many different kinds of light fixtures used in commercial locations. The types of light fixtures installed over bins of fruit in your local Wal-Mart are sure to be different than the fixtures hanging in the same store’s bathroom.

Here are 5 of the most popular commercial LED light fixtures used in store locations throughout the United States today:

1. Wall Packs

Wall packs are useful light fixtures for commercial settings because they help customers feel secure in dark locations. Whether it is a poorly lit alleyway or a parking lot at nighttime, wall packs are commonly used for many commercial locations for safety and security purposes.

2. Architectural Light Applications

Commercial locations that are stand-alone or a part of outside strip malls often utilize light fixtures for architectural purposes. For example, these stores might use lights for signs or to accentuate certain parts of the exterior buildings. Light fixtures used for architectural applications include floodlights and neon lights, which are both available in energy-efficient LEDs.

3. General Lighting

Although there are a few stores that thrive with dim lighting, most stores do not aim to promote gloomy atmospheres for shoppers; therefore, general lighting is normally bright and affluent in commercial locations. The type of light fixtures used to provide general illumination in commercial settings depends on the style and size of the space. For example, big stores like Wal-Mart use a mixture of high-bay and low-bay fixtures to deliver general lighting, while smaller store locations might depend on track lighting for a steady glow.

4. Task Lighting

Many commercial locations have particular areas that require a bit more light than the rest of the store. In clothing stores, for example, task lighting is often used in dressing rooms to provide a well-lit area for consumers trying on clothing items. The lighting used in areas like this can sometimes make or break a sale, so it’s definitely important to install the right type of lights.

5. Accent Lighting

In addition to task lighting, which is used to brightly illuminate a general area, accent lighting is often used in commercial locations to add light to small and specific areas, like display cases and art pieces.

LEDs are a wonderful choice for task and access light fixtures, because LEDs provide direct light.
