General
What Type of Lighting Can Be Used for a Military Application?
For the most part, we carry all the lights a military base requires, including high temperature lights for overseas operations. We have supplied high mast lights for outdoor security, high power flood lights, high bay lights for hangar lighting, and explosion proof lights for ordinance rooms.
Do All Lights Used by the United States Military Need to Be American Made?
We have worked with military installations that require BAA lights, and others were able to purchase non BAA under a waiver. In many cases, there is not a BAA option that meets the specific lighting requirements. Depending on the project, we can accommodate both requirements for many fixtures.

What Is the Buy American Act (BAA)?
The Buy American Act is a standard that assures the content of the light, or labor to build the light, meets the Buy American Act standard.
What Is the Lighting Level Required on a Military Base?
Lighting in a hangar needs to be brighter than general office lighting. Runway lighting needs to be brighter than parking lighting. It all depends on the use for the light level required.

We do, here are the lights we currently have. We also have a CAGE Code for direct military purchases. Our cage code is: 6JP16

High mast and high powered flood lights provide good overall area lighting, and minimize the number of poles required.
What Are the Best Fixtures to Use for Military Base Lighting?

Do You Offer Explosion Proof Lights for Military Applications?
We do, and we also offer BAA explosion proof lights

Depending on the type of shelter, we recommend low bays, high bays, canopies and vapor proof lighting.
What Options Do You Have for Military Parking Lot Lights?
We have a full line of shoebox lights that can easily replace 400 Watt or 1000 Watt metal halide or high pressure sodium lights, 1 for 1.
FIXTURES AND FITTINGS
What Are the Lens Options for Tight Mean Military Lights?
We can offer as low as 10 degrees all the way up to 150 degrees. The best option depends on the fixture.
INSTALLATION
Are There Any Special Considerations for Installation in Military Facilities?
None whatsoever, our lights can be mounted exactly the same as your existing lights.
Need a Military Base Lighting Plan?
A Lighting Plan for a military base uses software to calculate how the lighting will look in your indoor or outdoor space. We can model large areas for security lighting, hangars, warehouses, offices or fields.
A lighting plan provides both foot candle readings as well as how well the light is distributed across the plan.
Lighting Plans are the best first step you can make and takes away the risk and all the guess work in selecting the right LED Lighting Solution for your military base location.
