General Information: Gym Lighting

What is LED Gymnasium Lighting?

There are 2 types of gymnasium applications. The first type is in a school where sports are played. The second is a fitness center, boxing club, or weight-lifting gym. A school gym needs robust impact resistance lights able to take a direct hit from a ball and still work. Fitness center gyms need bright, customer-friendly lighting that’s inviting. And can attract clientele. For school gyms, a good recommendation is UFO LED Lights. They are round, robust, powerful, and impact-resistant gymnasium lighting. They are a great replacement for metal halide lighting and the energy efficiency of these fixtures will reduce your lighting costs. For fitness centers, there are more LED lights for gymnasium options available. From UFO High Bays to linear high bays, and for lower ceiling facilities, low bays or grid panel lights. These commercial gym lighting solutions are designed to provide bright, balanced, and high-quality lighting. Our lights are designed for both high ceilings and low-ceiling facilities.

Voltage Ranges Handled by LED Gym Lighting

They are typically in a range between 100 and 277 Volts. This is good because our standard LED drivers can accept any voltage from 100 to 277. If you need more, we also offer a high-voltage driver that operates either 277-480V or 347-480V.

Redesigning an Existing Gymnasium Lighting Layout

Yes, we can redesign your gym’s lighting layout. We can also use your existing lighting locations. We have created many gymnasium lighting plans doing both.

Why Good Gym Lighting is Important

In sports gymnasiums, no one wants to play under sub-par lighting. It’s not good for the athletes or spectators. The right amount of light and balance of light makes for a great playing and viewing experience. In fitness centers, presenting an inviting environment is good for business. Gymgoers do not want to work out in a dark, dungeon atmosphere.

Savings You Can Expect Switching to LED Gymnasium Lighting

There are considerable savings. By themselves, LED gymnasium lights can provide 50%-75% savings. Adding motion sensors and having the LED lights for the gymnasium dim to 10% when the room is empty, energy efficiency savings can reach as high as 90%.

Light Levels Differ from the Gym Floor to Spectator Stands

The gym floor should be brighter than the stands. There is no need to have high-foot candles in the spectator sections if the seating is fixed.

How Many Lights Do You Need for a Gym?

That all depends on the purpose and use of the gym. We have created lighting plans with as few as 30-foot candles and as many as 120-foot candles.

How Many LED Lumens Do You Need for a Gymnasium?

Lumens is the wrong approach to lighting design. Always start with foot-candles (the amount of light you want), and let the light plan determine the light.

Best Color Temperature for Gym Lighting

Most of our customers ask for 4000K and 5000K color temperatures. Some of our gym lighting options allow you to select the color temperature with an onboard toggle switch, so you don't have to decide now.

Best LED Gymnasium Lights

The best gym lighting is the one that meets your needs. And beyond foot candles and balance, make sure you think about gym lighting fixtures that are impact-resistant. We can offer IK10 impact-resistant lights and motion sensors to dim the gym when it’s not used. Always start with creating a lighting plan to find the right light for your specific needs.

Gymnasium With Hbc 150 Reduce Glare from LED Gym Lighting

We recommend using a frosted lens instead of a clear lens as this can help reduce glare when using LED gymnasium lights. A good option is linear high bay lights or UFO LED gym lighting fixtures with frosted lenses.

Do Gymnasium Lighting Fixtures Come with a Dimmer?

Gymnasium lighting fixtures can dim. But not in the same way you’re used to dimming your home lights. These are 0-10V or 1-10V dimmable gym lights. This needs a 0-10V/1-10V dimmer and low-voltage wiring over and above the power going to the lights. Your electrician will be familiar with how to wire for a dimmer.

Mounting Options Available for LED Gym and Fitness Center Lighting

Eye hooks, pendant mount, and chain/wire mount for our linear fixtures.

How to Reduce Shadows on the Gym Floor

Reducing shadows is a function of light balance, which is as important as brightness. No one wants to play in the shadows. Fewer high-powered lights are more likely to create bright areas with more shadowing than lower-powered lights.

LED Gym Lights can Withstand Hits by Balls

Make sure the LED Gym Lighting fixtures you opt for are impact-resistant. Check the specs for the IK impact rating, IK10 is best. We recommend IK8 Plus for gym applications.

Types of LED Lighting to Use in Gym Hallways

These can either be interior panel LED lights (fit into grid ceilings) or linear strip fixtures.

LED Lighting Voltage Options for Gymnasiums

We do offer high-voltage LED lighting options, all the way to 480V. The standard voltage is 100-277V. High voltage options include 347-480V and 277V-480V.
