LED Shoebox Light

Do you know what type of lighting your facility uses? If your building is still relying on HID, metal halide or high-pressure sodium lighting solutions, then you’re long overdue for an upgrade to effective, reliable and energy-efficient shoebox lighting. LED shoebox lighting is one of the best ways to illuminate large outdoor areas like parking areas. Proper shoebox light fixture placement, optics and improved lighting solutions can provide your facility with widespread, powerful lighting.

With the collection of LED shoebox lights available at LEDtronics, you’ll find the ideal method for upgrading your lighting to meet your long-term needs and expectations while improving site security and creating a safer, more inviting space for visitors.

Types of Shoebox Area Lights

Shoebox lights are usually mounted on a pole and are one of the easiest and most effective methods for illuminating a large area. Traditional shoebox lights include metal halide and HPS ranging from 400 to 1000 watts.

Today, manufacturers have developed LED versions of these traditional lights, combining practical design with versatile usage and modern LED technology. LED shoebox lights can be retrofitted into existing lighting fixtures for a simple, cost-effective way to upgrade your existing lighting. LED shoebox lights can produce over 60,000 lumens.

With their versatility and advanced illumination capability, LED shoebox lights are used in a myriad of outdoor locations, including:

• Parking lots, roadways and street lighting
• Building entrances and security
• Hospitality and sports venues
• Schools and universities
• Public parks, walkways and playgrounds
• Car dealerships

Mounting Options for Shoebox Fixtures

LED shoebox lights are available with a wide variety of different mounting options, including pole mounts, yoke or flood mounts, and wall mounts. Some of the more common styles include:

• Straight arm mounts:Straight arm mounts are rigid and placed in a single spot, so they can't be adjusted. These mounts are typically found on existing square poles
• Slip fitters:Easy to install and adjustable, shoebox lights with a slip fitter mount typically slide over standard 2 3/8-inch light poles. Once the shoebox light is installed, users can easily angle the head for optimal lighting results.
• Trunnion mounts:One of the most versatile mounting options, a trunnion mount fits at the bottom of the shoebox light. Trunnion mounts are often utilized in unique mounting and placement situations.

Features Available for Shoebox Lights

LEDs have come a long way in their design. LED shoebox lights now offer a wide variety of different features to easily adapt to and accommodate a range of different environments. Some of the most common features available for shoebox lights include:

• Motion sensors
• Infrared sensors

Benefits of LED Shoebox Lights

When the time comes to replace those dated, dim parking lot lights, many property owners choose LED shoebox lighting due to its greater energy efficiency and long-term cost savings. Upgrading existing lighting systems to LED shoebox lights is straightforward and offers a range of unmatched benefits like:

• Superior lighting distribution:When lighting large spaces, having optimal light distribution is a vital and often overlooked detail. LED lights provide exceptional illumination that spreads over large areas.
