When you are determining the types of lights you need for your business, the placement of those lights will be just as important a factor as the lights themselves. This is why you need to keep commercial lighting design in mind when you are making your selections for light products for your business. As work gets underway, you will encounter the dual aspects of commercial lighting design which include the aesthetic appeal and the practical nature of wall pack security lighting.
It could include up-lights along garden or architectural features. Perhaps it means decorative metal halide poles lights or wall scones by the door. The decorative aspects of lighting create a more welcoming environment for the front of your business. A well planned light design can also make your workplace an enjoyable spot for your employees.
There are many lighting products available for the artistic side of commercial landscape lighting design, and if you choose to install low-voltage lights, you could even install the project yourself. You will need to find a transformer for any low-voltage project. If you need high voltage lights, you need to call a professional electrician for the installation.
The other side of the commercial lighting design coin is the practical nature. How much light is required for the area. For example, a horse arena or parking lot lighting will require much brighter light than a wall scone or accent light. The amount of light needed will determine the lamp type you require. If you are lighting a garden, it will be vital, but if you just need general bright parking lot lights, it is not as important an issue. Will the light need to be lit constantly, or is it tied to a motion detector?
You will need to do a lot of planning for your commercial lighting design project. With the right products and guidance, any commercial lighting design job can be made easy.
A. Photometric Lighting Design
Obtaining a photometric lighting report on your client's property is a good first step to take toward ensuring maximum efficiency of the lighting system you install and maximum long-term client satisfaction with the operability and overall aesthetic impact of that system. Photometric analysis software, unfortunately, is often far outside the price range of small lighting design firms and independent electrical contractors.
Typically, only larger lighting design and electrical firms have the budget to purchase photometric analysis software and to train their employees in its proper use. Smaller companies and sole proprietors are at a significant disadvantage when it comes to proposing new equipment-that is, unless they can find a partner company who has photometric analysis software that can generate reports for them.
This is precisely why RLLD Commercial Lighting offers photometric lighting analysis reports to our clients. This data is then used to generate foot candle charts and photometric reports that pinpoint the very best locations to install lighting fixtures. Having a document like this to show to your client adds power to your proposal, and shows your client that you have thoroughly understood their needs and done your homework in response.
For indoor lighting design, photometric analysis software allows us to work on a room by room basis. We can also try different angles for fixture placement and vary lumens levels within the 3-D model to identify potentially dark areas created by light levels and inadequate placement. Every manufacturer offers unique fixture designs and energy efficiency safeguards, and lamp life varies as well between the various proprietary designs.
Our software actually contains manufacturer's spec sheets and engineering documents on specific fixtures in different categories. Cross referencing light levels and fixture placement reports with specific data on each fixture made by a leading US lighting manufacturer hones the effectiveness of the photometric analysis to a razor-edge precision.
Casual inquirers and companies seeking adjunct support are nonetheless welcome to call us and purchase a report to use in any project and are under no obligation to buy commercial lighting products in conjunction with the report.
