Commercial LED Lighting for Warehouse & Distribution

LED HiBay lighting for warehouses, distribution centers, and fulfillment facilities — cutting energy costs 65–75% while improving safety and worker productivity.

Warehouse and distribution facilities are among the highest-ROI applications for commercial LED lighting upgrades in New Jersey. Large fixture counts, long daily operating hours, and high existing wattages from metal halide high-bays combine to create substantial savings opportunities. Our warehouse LED installations are engineered for mounting heights from 15 to 50+ feet, delivering uniform illumination across aisles, dock areas, and mezzanines without dark spots or shadows.

Frequently Asked Questions

What wattage LED HiBay should I use for my warehouse?

The right wattage depends on your ceiling height, aisle width, and required foot-candle level. For 20–25 ft ceilings, 150W LED HiBays typically deliver 30–40 foot-candles at floor level. For 30+ ft ceilings, 200W–240W units are more common. We produce a photometric layout for your specific facility before ordering any fixtures.

How much can a warehouse save annually with LED lighting?

A 300,000 sq ft warehouse with 600 metal halide 400W high-bays running 12 hours per day can save roughly $75,000–$90,000 per year at NJ commercial rates. With utility rebates covering 30–60% of project costs, payback periods of under 18 months are common for large warehouse LED projects.

Can warehouse LED lighting be installed without stopping operations?

Yes. We phase installations across weekends or during planned maintenance windows. For 24/7 operations, we work section by section so the majority of the facility remains fully lit and operational throughout the project.

Do LED fixtures work in cold storage warehouses?

Yes, provided you use cold-rated LED fixtures. Standard LED drivers fail in sub-zero environments. We specify cold-storage rated HiBay fixtures certified for operation down to −40°F for freezer and refrigerated warehouse applications. These fixtures also carry NSF certification for food safety environments.
