Commercial LED Airport Lights

What are LED Airport Lights?

LED Airport Lights encompass multiple specialized lighting systems designed for aviation infrastructure. Our focus centers on hangar lighting, parking lot illumination, terminal fixtures, high mast installations, and high-power flood systems. Several major USA airport terminals currently operate our fixtures continuously, demonstrating their reliability in demanding environments. Color temperature selection typically falls between 4000K for warm environments and 5000K for task-oriented areas. Many models feature color adjustability, giving you flexibility to optimize lighting conditions for specific zones.

What are the Benefits of Using LED Lighting at an Airport?

• High-quality, bright LED light source - Premium chips maintain consistent output across vast terminal spaces. Performance stays strong with 90% lumen retention after 50,000 continuous operating hours.
• Energy savings with 50% or more reduction in utility costs - Metal halide replacements deliver immediate financial impact. Large facilities save thousands monthly through improved efficiency ratings.
• Maintenance cost elimination through solid-state design - No bulbs, ballasts, or frequent service calls. Single installations operate maintenance-free for over ten years, eliminating costly ladder work.
• Wattage and color adjustable capabilities for customized performance - Smart controls enable precise brightness and color temperature adjustments. Gate areas benefit from 4000K warmth while baggage handling requires 5000K task lighting.
• Enhanced experience for workers and passengers - Superior visibility reduces staff eye strain during extended shifts. Travelers navigate confidently through consistently lit terminals without glare issues.

Our Best Lighting Options for Airports

• Airport Security and Perimeter Lighting: High-output flood lighting delivers comprehensive perimeter coverage. Beam angle selection determines coverage patterns from wide flood distributions to narrow spotlighting for focused surveillance zones.
• Airport Hangar Lighting: High bay fixtures replace metal halide and fluorescent systems with direct one-to-one substitution. Maintenance crews get consistent, bright illumination for detailed aircraft servicing work.
• Airport Apron Lighting: Specialized apron fixtures feature individual aiming capabilities. Each light bank adjusts independently to eliminate pilot glare while maintaining ground crew visibility requirements.
• Airport Terminal Lighting: Open concourse areas benefit from high bay systems designed for tall ceiling applications. Office spaces and corridors work well with panel fixtures integrated into dropped ceiling grids.
• Airport Parking Lot Lighting: Shoebox-style pole-mounted fixtures handle comprehensive lot coverage. Models directly replace 400W metal halide and 1000W high-pressure sodium systems.
• Recessed Can Light Upgrades: Metal halide recessed conversion kits operate continuously in multiple airport installations. Retrofit design preserves existing ceiling appearance while delivering modern performance.

Technical Specifications and Performance

Airport lighting demands robust technical performance under continuous operation. Our fixtures accept 100V-277V input automatically through integrated drivers that adjust to your building's electrical system. Wattage options range from 75W to 500W depending on application requirements. Most installations benefit from 0-10V dimming capability, allowing brightness adjustment based on time of day or occupancy patterns.

We typically recommend 120-degree beam angles for general terminal lighting and 60-degree beams for focused task areas. Color rendering stays above 80 CRI across all models, ensuring accurate color perception for security applications. Operating temperature range spans -40°F to 122°F, handling extreme climate conditions without performance degradation.

Voltage Compatibility and Installation

Universal voltage drivers automatically accommodate standard building electrical systems without additional transformers. Installation connects directly to existing circuits in most retrofit applications. New construction projects benefit from our design consultation services to optimize fixture placement and electrical planning. Most customers choose fixtures with IP65 wet location ratings for outdoor applications and standard ratings for interior installations.

Safety and Performance Certifications

All our fixtures carry essential certifications including DLC Premium, UL Listed, and ETL Listed approvals. These certifications ensure safety, performance, and energy efficiency while qualifying your project for utility rebates and tax incentives. DLC Premium certification guarantees the highest efficiency standards and maximum rebate eligibility.

5-Year Warranty and Warranty Support

All our lights come with at least a 5-year warranty, and all warranty support is based in the USA. We take customer support seriously, and helping you with a warranty claim is important to us. Our experienced support team understands the importance of keeping your lighting operational and will work quickly to resolve any warranty issues.
