Optimizing 11'- 15' Mounting Heights
When installing your new LEDs, selecting the right fixture is important based on actual height they will be mounted. The lower the mounting height, the less time light has to spread out. Use our Fixture Finder tool to find the one.
Not sure how bright you want the space to be? Retail stores are recommended around 70 average foot candles while small warehouses start around 40. Our foot candle guide will give you a good idea.
The difference between an 11' and a 15' mount is quite different, so we recommend utilizing our professional lighting layout service.
The right fixture and placement for your mounting height
The height of your ceiling is a critical factor in selecting the right LED light fixtures for your space. Ceiling heights between 11' and 15' are common in a variety of applications, from vaulted garage ceilings to retail stores, pavilions, small warehouses, auto body shops, and paint spray booths. However, the challenges of lighting at these heights vary depending on the specific application and ceiling height.
For lower ceiling heights closer to 11', selecting the right light fixture and placement is crucial. The lower the ceiling height, the less forgiving the lighting placement. You'll want to choose a fixture with a wide beam angle and high lumen output. This will help distribute light evenly across the space and reduce the chances of creating hot spots or glare.
For higher ceilings around 15', you'll want to go with something more powerful like the ArcBright 4. The higher the ceiling, the more powerful the fixture needs to be in order to maintain adequate light levels. Additionally, with higher ceilings, it's important to choose a fixture that will last a long time since getting up that high to maintain and repair is not easy.
Lumen Right fixtures are a great choice for any space, but they are particularly ideal for spaces with ceiling heights between 10' and 15'. These fixtures are built to last and have an industry-leading 10-year warranty to back them up. Investing in high-quality fixtures will help ensure that your lighting system performs well and is maintenance-free for years to come.
Finally, whatever size your space is, having a lighting layout is key. A lighting layout will help you determine the appropriate number of fixtures, their placement, and the appropriate mounting height. This will ensure that your space is properly illuminated, while also reducing energy waste and unnecessary expenses.
