What is LED Aircraft Hangar Lighting?

Aircraft hangars are large open areas with high ceilings. High bays are the perfect energy-efficient lighting system for this area as it can deliver the power and lumens to light up the hangar for this area as they can deliver the power and lumens to light up the hangar. You may want to consider adding a narrower beam optic for tall ceilings. It will ensure the light output is delivered to the aircraft and the floor space below.

What are the Benefits of Using LED Lights in an Aircraft Hangar?

  • Long Life: Years of maintenance-free life without bulb or ballast changes reducing or eliminating maintenance costs
  • 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.
  • Perfect for High Ceilings: We have many optic packages and power LED lights that perform great together to get the light to the ground and create bright workspaces.
  • Safer Work Areas: LED Lights are reliable and produce high-quality lighting for a long period versus metal halide and fluorescent lighting. It keeps the areas lit by LED light safer and well-lit.
  • Instant On: LED Lights turn to 100% the moment you hit the light switch.
  • Easy to install: There is nothing difficult about installing and wiring our hangar lights for new installations or replacing old high bays. All instructions are included.

What LED Hangar Light Is Best for You?

UFO (Round) Hangar Light Round LED UFO Hangar Fixtures are perfect to replace Metal Halide / HID light fixtures. These lights are high-impact rated and waterproof. These are perfect for higher (20-80 foot) ceilings.
LED Linear (Rectangular) Lights LED Linear Hangar Lights are a great replacement for fluorescent / T5 fixtures. These rectangular lights offer great light distribution at ceiling heights up to 40 feet tall.
Dimmable LED Hangar 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 hangar lights work well with motion sensor-equipped fixtures.
Motion Sensor LED Hangar Lights 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.
Wattage Adjustable LED Hangar Lights These fixtures have onboard toggle switches that allow you to choose the wattage and lumen output. This allows you to customize the light output to meet your needs on location.
Color Adjustable LED Hangar Lights These fixtures have onboard toggle switches that allow you to choose the color temperature. Typical 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 fixtures.
LED Hangar Lights with Emergency Backup These fixtures 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 Hangar Lights These hangar lights produce a 3500 Kelvin color temperature. 3500K is a good replacement for high-pressure sodium lighting.
4000K LED Hangar Lights These fixtures produce a 4000 Kelvin color temperature. 4000K is a slightly warmer color than 5000K and is similar to the color temperature produced by fluorescent lighting.
5000K LED Hangar Lights These fixtures produce a 5000 Kelvin color temperature. This is a great choice for replacing metal halide lighting.

LED Aircraft Hangar Lighting FAQ

What is the Importance of Reflective Surfaces in an Aircraft Hangar?

It will help light up areas that may block direct lighting, like under the wings. Having reflective surfaces will help redirect light from those surfaces to areas blocked by the aircraft. You can also correct this by having lighting fixtures mounted closer together.

How Can You Reduce Lighting Glare in a Hanger?

There are several options for lighting. Add an acrylic dome or frosted lens cover to the LED high bay lights when using LED Lighting. Both will reduce the “LED dots” and reduce the glare. Many fixtures also come with special ribbed optics to reduce side glare.

Is Using More Higher Power Fixtures to Reduce Quantity of Lights a Good Idea in an Aircraft Hangar?

The two most important things to consider are light levels and light balance. Achieving one without the other means the light isn’t bright enough or well-balanced. A lighting plan will discover any issue before you buy. So, let’s start with a lighting plan. We’ll confirm the light levels are correct and the lighting is balanced. Then you can rest assured that there will be no surprises after the installation.

Are There Impact-Proof LED Light Fixtures for an Aircraft Hanger?

If you need impact-proof fixtures, we would generally recommend UFO fixtures over linear high bay fixtures. We offer UFO fixtures with an impact rating of IK08.

What is the Best Way to Mount Lights in an Aircraft Hanger?

We offer many different options to mount lighting in hangars. Eye-hook, pendant, and chain mount, that we can suggest or match your existing fixture mount.
