General Information: Commercial LED Security Lighting
Are LED Flood Outdoor Lighting Fixtures a Good Choice for Security Lighting?
LED Flood lights are great for outdoor security lighting when you have large areas that need to be lit. Other choices for outdoor security lighting are LED Wall Packs and LED Parking Lot Lights.Benefits of Commercial LED Security Lights
They are powerful, high-quality light sources. You can attach to motion sensors and provide instantaneous brightness. They need very little maintenance. And they use less energy and metal halide light sources.Are Commercial LED Security Lights Better than Halogen Lights?
Halogen bulbs aren’t particularly bright considering the amount of energy they consume. You can replace a 500 Watt halogen light source with 100 Watts to 150 Watts LED. They also have a very short lifespan when compared to LEDs.Use LED Flood Lights for Security
LED flood lights are one of the most common types of security lighting. Be careful with flood lights, not all are the same. Some flood lights have narrow beams (spotlight) while others have broad (wide) beams. Make sure the flood light matches your application.How does Lighting Improve Security
It creates bright areas that make it uncomfortable for criminal activity. And it provides light that works in conjunction with security cameras. Studies have shown that there is less crime in well-lit areas than in dark ones.Install New Fixtures or Retrofit Your Current Fixture
You can do either. A good reason to retrofit is if you have fixtures that you like for aesthetic purposes. Or the fixtures themselves would be expensive to replace. Otherwise, new fixtures would be a good choice.Best Color Temperature for Outdoor Security Lighting
We feel that 4000K and 5000K are both good choices for outdoor security lighting. When used in conjunction with security lighting, they provide clear vivid images.Use LED Wall Packs as Security Lights
LED Wall Packs are the preferred light choice next to a building, mounted on the exterior wall. There are three types.- forward throw (for wall pack flood)
- full cutoff (best for Dark Sky Compliance)
- semi cutoff
What Wattage LED Security Light is Equal to 500 Watts?
80 to 100 Watts should be all you need to replace 500 Watts halogen lights. (500 Watts is a typical halogen wattage and not a common metal halide wattage). For 400 Watts metal halide, 100 to 150 Watts would be a good range. This will provide more lighting than what the metal halide delivers.How Do Commercial LED Security Lights Compare to Mercury Lights?
Mercury is a very old technology. The light quality is poor, and everything appears green. CRI on mercury vapor is 22 whereas LED starts at 70. They are also very inefficient when compared to LEDs. So upgrading mercury lights to LEDs is good.Types of Security Lighting
There are 4 main types:- Wall packs for lighting up areas next to buildings
- LED Parking Lot lights are pole-mounted and provide light to large parking spaces
- Flood lights that are wall, pole, or perimeter mounted. This provides pinpoint lighting or large-area flood lighting
- LED High Mast lights mounted on tall poles provide large areas of light coverage.
Difference Between Flood Lights and Security Lights
LED Flood lights are a specific type of outdoor lighting that can be used for purposes of security lighting but is not limited exclusively to being a security light. Security lighting, per se, tends to be smaller less powerful lighting that is motion sensor activated.Perimeter Security Lighting Design

In the case of security lighting, decide what light levels you would like to achieve. Then create a lighting plan. The lighting plan will show the light levels in your area, detail the lights used, and how many you need. It will also show you the watts and lumens of each light used.Best Selling 400w Security Light
