Commercial LED Flood Lights

What are Commercial LED Flood Lights?

A LED Flood Light is a pole-mounted, wall-mounted flood light or roof-mounted energy-efficient LED fixture. They’re designed to send a beam of light to a specific outside area that needs to be lit up. It’s used as security lighting and it can light up parking lots.

LED floodlights outdoors can also be used for sports courts and tennis courts using LED Sports Flood Lights. You’ll find them lighting up baseball, and softball fields, and basketball courts. They’re configurable with different beam angles from narrow to wide. This provides varied lighting options for different needs and requirements. They work particularly well as security lights in large open areas.

Are all LED Flood Lights Commercial Grade or Industrial Grade?

No. LED Flood lights are a broad category of many products. They include lower-wattage consumer products designed to add lights around the home. That is not what we sell. Our flood lights are commercial and industrial grade. Some of our Industrial LED Flood Lights have marine-grade coatings to withstand saltwater environments. We also offer high-powered industrial flood lights you can configure to replace sports field lighting.

What Are the Benefits of Using an Exterior LED flood light?

We have many LED flood light fixtures that serve specific needs and requirements.

But for the most part, they all offer:

Powerful light beams with configurable optics
Tremendous energy savings over halogen and HID Fixtures
10+ years of maintenance free lighting
High quality light output
Significant Energy Saving when compared to HID Lighting

What’s the Difference Between LED Flood Lights and a Spot Light?

The real difference between a flood light and a spotlight is the spread of the light beam they produce.

Flood lights have wider beam angles meant to “flood” a large area with light
A spot light has a narrowly focused beam pattern meant to throw a large amount of light out to a specific point. Some of our flood lights can do both.

Is There a Difference Between Commercial Outdoor LED Flood Lights and a Stadium Light?

There is a close resemblance between these two types of fixtures. In some cases, you can use floodlights in place of LED Stadium Lights.

Stadium lighting is a powerful flood light and has a series of optional “tight” beam patterns. These include 10, 15, 30, 45, and 60-degree beam patterns. Its light can be pointing from high mounting points to specific areas of a field.

Flood light can also be a high-power fixture. Its range of optics is not as narrow and it has wider options available.

We’ve installed commercial-grade, powerful commercial lighting in baseball, football, and soccer fields. They performed well because the available beam patterns worked with their pole heights. We can create proper light levels and balanced lighting with these fixtures.

How Many Lumens do I need to replace my existing flood lights?

It depends on the power of your existing flood lights. We can easily match and replace the lumen output of almost every standard halogen and metal halide bulb with a one-for-one LED equivalent light.

The lumen output, although less with LED, will result in the same or better lighting because LED is a directional, high-quality light source.

Here are some LED replacement guidelines to follow:

250 Watt HID / Metal Halide:  9,000 – 12,000 lumens
400 Watt HID / Metal Halide: 15,000 – 25,000 lumens
1000 Watt HID / Metal Halide: 35,000 – 50,000 lumens
1500 Watt + HID / Metal Halide: 50,000 – 90,000 lumens

What Wattage Should I Use for Commercial Outdoor Flood Lights?

This depends on your area, needs, and requirements. We do have outdoor flood lights that can match and replace metal halide, high-pressure sodium, and halogen floods, 1 for 1. We can take it a step further and help you select the number of lumens and proper beam angles. This will help narrow down your options so that you can choose the best light.

How Much Light Coverage Do I Get with your LED Flood Lighting?

It depends on the beam angle you choose. If you are unsure, contact a light expert at LED Lighting Supply and we can help you with that.

What Are the Best Outdoor LED Flood Lights?

The best LED flood light is actually the one that fulfills your requirements. Flood lights are a defined light source and have so many options, such as power, lumens, and beam angles. What works best for one lighting application may not be the right choice for the next.

We offer free lighting plans that will help you find the best commercial LED flood light for your needs.

How Bright Are Your Commercial LED Flood Lights When Used Outdoors?

The brightest LED flood lights we offer produce 168,000 lumens. It’s a 1200 Watt LED flood light. This of course is only needed for very specific requirements. We can replace almost all common 250 Watt, 400 Watt, 1000 Watt, 1500 Watt and even 2000 Watt HID / Metal Halide / High-Pressure Sodium fixtures with LED.

Check out our LED High Power Flood Lights here. These are the lights we have provided to many customers to light up all types of sports fields. They are also installed in large areas as security lighting and also as marine lights on boats and drilling platforms.

How Long Do Flood Lights Last?

Our LED floodlights should last 10-15 years. This assumes running the light 12 hours a night, 365 days a year. All our floodlights come with a 5-year warranty.

Whether you choose the 250W option, the 400W LED flood light, or one of our more powerful LED light solutions, you can expect them to be low maintenance and provide reliable lighting for over a decade. This long-term efficiency guarantee will help you save money, time, and resources – without compromising on your outdoor lighting needs.

How Do I Replace Metal Halide and Halogen Flood Lights with LED?

Our LED Commercial flood light lamps should be 1-for-1 replacements of your existing flood lights. We offer slip fitter, trunnion mount, and threaded NPT options.

What Are the Options for Mounting a Wall Flood Light?

We offer a trunnion mount with adjustable pivot points that can be installed on a wall. We also offer wall-mounted “flood”, or forward throw wall packs that also might be a great option for you.

I Need a Knuckle Mount Flood Light. What Do You Have Available?

We offer several knuckle mount flood light models that you can install into an existing junction box. We also sell Yoke Mount Floods, another common type of popular mounting choice.

I Have ‘X’ Watt Metal Halide Flood Lights. Do You Have a Replacement?

Yes. We can replace 50 Watt to 2000 Watt fixtures 1 for 1. Without the need to install many fixtures, add new poles, or change your wiring. And you should expect significant energy savings when you convert from Metal Halide to LED.

Can I use a Motion Sensor with a LED Flood?

Sure. In fact, using a motion sensor with a LED Flood is a great security lighting option. You might want to include one on a general-purpose light used, for example, in parking lots.

How Do I Install a LED Flood Light?

The installation process of flood lights is simple, and a great part of it depends on the mount option.

If you’re replacing flood lights and choosing a fixture with a similar mount, then the installation is simple.

Disconnect the light from the power source
Remove the fixture
Mount the new fixture
Connect the new fixture to the power source.

How Do You Wire Connect LED Floods?

All our lights have 3 wires, line, neutral and ground. For a qualified electrician, this is a trivial wiring connecting task for them to perform.

How Can I Reduce the Glare?

You should consider adding some side shields to the lights to block direct view of the light source.
