What are High Bay LED Lights?

High bay LED lights are powerful, indoor, ceiling-mounted LED Lights used to illuminate areas, like storage areas and aircraft hangars, with high ceilings. Ceiling heights ideal for our LED high bays are typically in the range of 20 feet to 60 feet. Below 20 feet, you should consider a low bay fixture (which is essentially a low-powered high bay light).

We have many high bay light options, ranging in power from 60 Watts to 600 Watts, covering a voltage range of 100V to 480V. We have both types of high bay lights: UFO LED high bay lights (round) and linear high bay lights (rectangular) fixtures.

Some high bays we offer allow you to select the color temperature, and power (wattage) by changing onboard toggle switches.

We offer a variety of optic packages to ensure the work area and floor are brightly lit, even from heights 40 feet or higher.

What are the Benefits of LED High Bay Lighting?

  • Long Life: Years of maintenance-free life without bulb or ballast changes reducing or eliminating maintenance costs
  • Energy Efficiency and Reduced Energy Bills: You can expect to reduce your energy costs and lighting bills by 50% to 75% with lower energy consumption versus traditional lighting. And if you add motion sensors, you can expect even more savings.
  • Controls Ready: Motion sensors, used alongside dimmable LED lights, can turn the lights to full power when motion is detected and off / dimmed when the area is void of movement.
  • Quick Pay Back / ROI: The savings in energy will create a short ROI. And the higher the utility cost per kWh, the faster the payback.
  • Environmental Impact: There are no harsh chemicals like mercury in LED high bays. So while you should properly dispose of them at the end of life, there are no costly charges like there are with fluorescent lighting.
  • Safer Areas: LED lights are reliable and produce high-quality lighting for a long period compared to metal halide and fluorescent lighting. It keeps the areas lit by LED high bays safer and well-lit.
  • Instant On: LED Lights turn to 100% the moment you hit the light switch.
  • Impact Ready: We offer IK-rated high-impact LED High Bays that excel in durability and withstanding tough environments.
  • High-Quality Color Rendering Light Source: all our lights are 70 CRI or better.
  • Easy to install: There is nothing difficult about installing and wiring our high bay lights for new installations or replacing old high bays. All instructions are included.
  • Certified and Tested: Our LED high bays are either UL or ETL Listed. Many are DLC Listed for rebates.

Steps to Calculate How Many High Bay LED Lights You Need

Converting your lights from metal-halide or fluorescent? There is a high probability we can do a 1-for-1 replacement to an LED High Bay light. For new lighting layouts, it’s important to go through the following steps:

1. How many foot-candles do you want on the ground?
2. What is the physical space of the area?
3. Are there any obstructions?

From there, we can create a lighting plan that models this area. The lighting plan will tell you:

  • How many high bay lights will you need
  • Where they’re located in the facility
  • The optimal distance between fixtures

School Gym Lighting Plan

The lighting plan will show you the average, minimum, and maximum foot-candle readings in the space. This is an indication of whether the selected light is capable of providing sufficient, bright light. It will show you how balanced the light is (look for a low average/min ratio). The objective of the plans we provide is to show you bright and uniform lighting.

Here are some general guidelines that will help you do some quick calculations.  Please note, that the higher the ceiling, the more powerful light you will need. For ceilings ranging from 15 to 40+ feet, use the following guide to choose the proper lumen output. For lower ceilings, 8-15 feet, use low bay lights.

  • 15-20 feet ceiling height: 100-150 watts: 15,000 – 22,500 lumens
  • 20-30 feet ceiling height:  120-200 watts: 18,000 – 30,000 lumens
  • 31-40 feet ceiling height: 240-300 watts:  40,800 – 45,000 lumens
  • 40+ feet ceiling height: 400-600 watts: 72,000 – 96,000 lumens

How You Can Choose the Best High Bay LED Lights

Maybe you're starting to replace Metal Halide / High-Pressure Sodium / HID fixtures with LED high bay lights. When selecting new indoor LED High Bay Fixtures from a reputable LED high bay light manufacturer, here are the equivalent LED lumens for each common HID wattage fixture.

  • Replace 400 Watts Metal Halide - 15,000 to 30,000 lumens LED
  • Replace 1000 Watts Metal Halide - 40,000 to 60,000 lumens LED
  • Replace 1500 Watts Metal Halide - 60,000 to 90,000 lumens LED
  • Replace 2000 Watts Metal Halide - 90,000+ lumens LED

You can determine the specific output by understanding the following:

  1. What is the current wattage?
  2. How many High Bay Lights are there?
  3. How high are the high bay lights mounted?
  4. What is the space used for?

What LED High Bay Is Best for You?

UFO High Bays Round UFO high bay LED fixtures are perfect for replacing Metal Halide / HID high bay light fixtures. High Impact Rated and waterproof. These are perfect for higher ceilings.
LED Linear High Bays LED Linear High Bays are a great replacement for fluorescent / T5 fixtures. These rectangular high bay lights offer great light distribution at ceiling heights up to 40 feet tall.
Dimmable LED High Bay Lights These are either UFO or Linear style equipped with a dimmable LED Driver. The drivers are typically 0-10V or 1-10V trigger dimmable and work with a 0-10V dimmer. Dimmable LED High Bays work well with motion sensor-equipped high bays. Some high bays with a dimmable LED Driver are not dimmable if equipped with a motion sensor as the motion sensor uses the dimming wires.
Motion Sensor LED High Bays We offer both microwave motion sensor options as well as PIR (infrared) motion sensors. Microwave motion sensors are a newer technology not affected by dusty environments. So if your environment is dusty, choose a microwave motion sensor option. A motion sensor equipped LED High Bay needs to be dimmable.
Hazardous-Location High Bays These high bays are designed to work in dangerous, explosive environments. They are tested under UL844 explosive testing standards. Never use a normal high bay in an environment that requires a hazardous location fixture. Click the link at the left to see our haz-loc high bays.
High-Temperature High Bays These are high bays designed to work in ambient temperatures that are generally too hot for normal high bays. We offer high bays rated to work in temperatures up to 302F. Click the link at the left to see these high-temp high bays.
Wattage Selectable LED High Bays These high bays have onboard toggle switches that allow you to choose the wattage and lumen output. This allows you to customize the high bay light output to meet your needs on location.
Color Selectable LED High Bays These high bays have onboard toggle switches that allow you to choose the color temperature. Typical CCT options are between 3000K and 5000K. 3000K is a warm inviting light where as 5000K is a light that resembles the color temperature of metal halide high bays. 4000K is a good choice if you like the light output of fluorescent high bay fixtures.
LED High Bays with Emergency Backup These high bays have either onboard EMB packs (linear fixtures) or external EMB units (UFOs) that can provide up to 90 minutes of light when the power supply is interrupted.
3500K LED High Bays These high bay lights produce a 3500 Kelvin CCT. 3500K is a good replacement for high-pressure sodium lighting.
4000K LED High Bays These high bay lights produce a 4000 Kelvin CCT. 4000K is a slightly warmer color than 5000K and is similar to the color temperature produced by fluorescent lighting.
5000K LED High Bays These high bay lights produce a 5000 Kelvin CCT. This is a great choice for replacing metal halide lighting.

High Bay LED Lights FAQ

What Are High Bay LED Lights?

LED High Bays are ceiling-mounted LED Fixtures designed to light up large interior spaces, like warehouses, gyms, and aircraft hangars. Ideally, they are mounted 20 feet or higher.

What are the Different Types of LED High Bay Lights?

There are two main types: UFO and linear. UFOs are round, small fixtures that are a good replacement for metal halide high bays. Linears are larger, rectangular fixtures that are a good replacement for fluorescent high bays.

What Are the Key Differences Between High Bay vs Low Bay Lighting?

The fixtures look very similar but there is one key difference: low bay lights are low-power versions of high bay lights. Secondly, you should only install low bay lights with ceiling heights below 20 feet and high bay lights above 20 feet ceiling heights.

How Much Energy Can You Save with Energy Saving High Bay Lighting?

You can expect to save 50% when converting from metal halide or fluorescent lighting. If you add motion sensors, you can expect to save up to 90% in areas where motion is less common.

What Is the Difference Between Flood Lights and High Bay Lights?

There are many differences. The main difference is high bay lights are designed for ceiling-mounted indoor applications and flood lights are designed for pole-mounted outdoor applications.

What Is the Coverage Area for High Bay Lights?

It depends on power, lumens, beam angle, and mounting height. The best way to determine the light coverage of a high bay light is to create a lighting plan. The lighting plan will determine the perfect fixture to get the coverage you need.

Which LED Is Better: Round or Square?

The shape of the LED fixture is not important in determining which may be better. Focus on quality of light, reliability, and dependability of the fixture, the warranty, and the trustworthiness of the supplier.

Are High Bay Lights Waterproof?

Some are, but not all. Our LED UFO fixtures on this page are IP-rated with a rating of IP65 or higher. Our linear fixtures are not IP-rated and should not be used in wet locations where waterproof lighting is needed.

What Color Temperature Is Best for High Bay LED Lights?

Our primary recommendation is 5000K, and a good second option is 4000K. We also recommend color-adjustable high bays that allow you to select and customize the color temperature you want.

What Is the Typical Lifespan of High Bay LED Lights?

The high bays on this page will easily last for 50,000 hours or more. If you use high bays 12 hours a day, 365 days a year, that equals 4380 hours of use per year. Over 50,000 hours, that's 11.5 years of expected life.

Do High Bay LED Lights Get Hot?

While LEDs are far more efficient than other types of lighting, they do produce some heat. Most of the energy consumed by LED lights is converted into light. Most of the LED high bay lights we sell will get 'warm to the touch', while others will get a little hotter. However, none will get as hot as a metal halide light that could burn you if touched.

What's the Recommended Mounting Height for a High Bay fixture?

Any ceiling with a height of 20 feet or higher is perfect for these fixtures. For high ceilings (> 30 feet), you might need a more powerful high bay or consider using a tighter beam angle (60 or 90 degrees.

What Type of LED Is the Best Replacement for a Metal Halide High Bay?

UFO LED Lights are the best one-for-one replacement for metal halide high bays. They can easily replace any metal halide wattage from 250 Watts to 2000 Watts and provide energy savings of 50% or greater.

What Type of LED Is the Best Replacement for a Fluorescent T5 / T8 High Bay?

Linear LED High Bays to match the style of fluorescent high bays. They are rectangular. These lights can easily replace any fluorescent high bay one-for-one and provide better lighting without the need to replace any bulbs or ballasts. LED lights have the added benefit of not flickering and not humming.

What Types of Controls are Commonly Used on LED High Bays?

The most common type of control is motion sensors. They will turn the LED High Bay to full power when motion is detected, and dim the High Bay when the area is void of motion.

What are Wattage Adjustable and Color Adjustable LED High Bay Lights?

These lights have onboard toggle switches that allow you to select the light output and the color temperature. This takes the guesswork and risk out of selecting the right power and color temperature.

What are Commercial Grade and Industrial Grade LED High Bays?

Our High Bays are designed to last a long time. The wattages offered range from 100 Watts to 600 Watts. They have larger heat sinks, reliable drivers, and more LED Chips driven below max capacity. But this also means they cost a bit more because there is just more material used in making the high bay. Our commercial and industrial customers want reliability, dependability, and quality. That's why we stay away from offering the ultra-cheap high bays. And if one of our high bays has an issue, we're here to help.

How Do You Wire LED High Bay Fixtures?

Most of our LED High Bays are equipped with a whip/cord. Our customers usually hard wire out lights into a junction box, or install a plug that allows them to use an existing socket. A qualified electrician will easily be able to install our high bays using either approach.

How Do You Hang High Bay Lights?

Eye Hook: Common on UFOs, these allow you to hang or suspend the UFO from the same mounting like metal halide lights.
Chain or cable: This allows you to hang the high bays from chains or cables attached to the ceiling. Common in linear panel high bays.
Pendant: Suspending the lights from a rigid pendant or rod attached to a junction box mounted on the ceiling.
Surface: Directly mounting the lights to the ceiling. The best option for low-ceiling applications.
Yoke: Attach the lights to yoke brackets or mounting arms installed on the ceiling or walls.

How Can I Purchase Your LED High Bays?

Many of our high bays are available to purchase online, however, we are also here to help and guide you if you have questions or specific needs. We would be more than happy to provide a free lighting plan so you can see how well our lights will work in your space.
