General
What Types of Lights Do You Put in a Quonset Hut?
Depending on the height of the structure, a good option for anything under 20 feet high are low bay lights. Above 20 feet, think of LED UFO Lights. UFOs are great rugged commercial lighting fixtures that are ideal for lighting these types of structures.
What are the Steps to Properly Light Up a New Quonset Hut?
We recommend you start with a lighting plan. We have done thousands of lighting plans for commercial buildings, including pole barns and Quonset structures. We do these for free.
Tell us the size of the building including height, mounting height, and how bright you want it. We will send you a lighting plan that meets your needs. And we will make sure the light is balanced and even.
BEFORE YOU BUY
How Many LED Lights Do I Need for a 40 X 60 Quonset?
That really depends on how bright you want it. A good start is 6 lights. A well-lit Quonset can have as many as 12 lights. It really depends on your needs and how you want to use the space.
How Many LED Quonset Hit Lights DO I Need for a 30 ft X 30 ft X 10 ft high Building?
Four 100 Watt UFO lights should work really well. They will produce a lot of light in the space.
What’s the Best Color Temperature Lighting to Use in a Quonset?
Our best advice is to choose 5000K, or 4000K. Most people like the look of 5000K, but for those who want it a little ‘warmer’ then 4000K is a good option.
My Quonset is Unheated. Is cold weather going to be a problem for LED Lights?
Not at all. As long as the Quonset stays above -30F, you shouldn’t have any issues. Unlike fluorescent lighting which takes a long time to power up on cold days, LED Lights will be full power the moment you turn them on.
Are LED Lights Dimmable?
Most of the ones we sell are, but not all are dimmable. So if dimming is important, ask us and we will point you in the right direction.
Can I use Motion Sensors with LED Lighting inside my Quonset?
Yes, many of our fixtures support motion sensors. If this is something you want, let us know and we can help you select the right light that includes motion sensors.
INSTALLATION
Are there any issues or problems installing LED Lights in a Quonset?
None at all. These lights are easy to install. If you are replacing your existing lights, it’s even easier. Just follow the instructions provided and you will end up with years of high-quality, trouble-free lighting.
What things should I look out for during installation?
If you’re hanging lights above trusses, the truss can block light. This will cause shadows. So if you can, make sure the light is mounted below the trusses so light can be evenly distributed.
