Light Pole Accessories

Light pole accessories play a crucial role in completing your commercial and industrial lighting system, providing the necessary mounting hardware to install, position, and secure fixtures properly. LED lighting Supply's vast selection of pole accessories includes cross arms, installation kits, bullhorns, and tenon adapters. Our pole accessories are designed to withstand demanding environments while enhancing the functionality of your lighting infrastructure.

What Are Light Pole Accessories?

Light pole accessories are specialized components engineered to extend the functionality of lighting poles, enabling proper fixture mounting, positioning adjustment, and structural support. These accessories bridge the gap between your lighting fixtures and poles, ensuring secure installation and optimal light distribution. Without the right accessories, even the highest quality poles and fixtures cannot perform to their full potential. Our pole accessory collection includes essential components including cross arms for mounting multiple fixtures, complete installation kits with all necessary hardware, bullhorns for extending fixture reach, and tenon adapters for compatibility with various fixture mounting designs. Each accessory is engineered to provide reliable performance while simplifying the installation process.

Types of Light Pole Accessories

Cross Arms

Cross arms are horizontal mounting accessories designed to support multiple lighting fixtures on a single pole. They extend perpendicular to the pole, creating mounting points that allow for strategic placement of fixtures to achieve broader light distribution patterns. Cross arms offer several key benefits:

Support for multiple fixtures on one pole, reducing overall infrastructure costs
Ability to position lights in different directions for optimal coverage
Engineered to withstand wind load and weight requirements
Available in various lengths to accommodate different fixture combinations

Whether you need to illuminate a large parking lot or create perimeter lighting for a commercial property, cross arms provide the mounting flexibility needed for effective lighting design.

Installation Kits

Installation kits contain all the necessary parts and hardware required to mount fixtures to poles securely. These comprehensive kits eliminate the guesswork and potential delays caused by missing components during installation. Typical installation kits include:

Mounting brackets specifically designed for your pole type
All required bolts, nuts, and washers in appropriate sizes
Wiring access components for clean electrical connections
Detailed installation instructions for proper assembly

Our installation kits are carefully curated to ensure compatibility with specific pole and fixture combinations, significantly reducing installation time and labor costs while ensuring proper mounting.

Bullhorns

Bullhorns are curved mounting accessories that extend outward from the pole, allowing fixtures to be positioned at greater distances from the pole center. This design is particularly valuable when you need to direct light further from the pole base or create specific lighting patterns. Key considerations for bullhorn selection include:

Weight capacity based on the fixtures being mounted
Extension length to achieve desired light positioning
Material durability to withstand environmental conditions
Compatibility with your specific fixture mounting requirements

Bullhorns are commonly used in applications such as facade lighting, sign illumination, and areas where poles must be placed at a distance from the target illumination area.

Tenon Adapters

Tenon adapters are specialized fittings that modify the mounting interface at the top or side of a pole to accommodate different fixture mounting designs. They essentially serve as the connection point between poles and fixtures that would otherwise be incompatible. The advantages of tenon adapters include:

Ability to adapt existing poles for use with new fixture designs
Option to replace outdated fixtures without replacing entire poles
Customizable solutions for unique mounting requirements
Cost-effective way to update lighting infrastructure

When selecting tenon adapters, it's important to consider both the pole specifications and the fixture mounting requirements to ensure proper fit and structural integrity.

Materials Used in Light Pole Accessories

The material selection for light pole accessories significantly impacts their performance, longevity, and suitability for specific environments. Our accessories are available in various materials to meet different application needs:Aluminum accessories offer an excellent combination of strength, light weight, and corrosion resistance, making them ideal for most standard applications. Their reduced weight simplifies installation while still providing durable performance in typical outdoor environments. Bronze components deliver superior corrosion resistance, particularly in coastal areas or environments with exposure to salt spray or harsh chemicals. While typically more expensive than aluminum, bronze accessories offer exceptional longevity in challenging conditions. When selecting materials for your light pole accessories, consider factors such as:

Environmental exposure (coastal, industrial, hurricane-prone)
Required longevity and maintenance preferences
Weight considerations for installation and structural loading
Budget constraints and long-term value

Our team can help you determine the optimal material selection based on your specific application requirements and environmental factors.

Installation Considerations

Proper installation of light pole accessories is critical for both performance and safety. Key factors to consider during the selection and installation process include:Weight capacity is a primary consideration when selecting accessories. Each component must be rated to support not only the fixtures themselves but also account for environmental factors such as wind load, ice accumulation, and potential impact forces. Weather resistance ensures your lighting system will withstand challenging conditions over time. All of our accessories are designed to withstand precipitation, temperature fluctuations, and other environmental stressors. Replacement planning should be considered during initial installation. Designing with future maintenance in mind can significantly reduce downtime and costs when components eventually need to be replaced or upgraded. For optimal results, always follow manufacturer installation guidelines and consider consulting with our Product Specialists before finalizing your accessory selection.

Selecting the Right Light Pole Accessories

Finding the perfect accessories for your lighting project involves balancing several important factors:

Compatibility with your specific pole and fixture combinations
Environmental considerations including weather exposure and corrosion potential
Aesthetic preferences to maintain visual consistency with your overall design
Budget constraints balanced against long-term durability requirements
Installation efficiency to minimize labor costs and complexity

Our experts can help you navigate these considerations to select the ideal accessories for your specific application.
