Contractors installing high bay lights in warehouses and factories can find a wide range of fixture manufacture and lamping options through RLLD Commercial Lighting. We are a virtual lighting agency operating nationwide holding multiple representative relationships with major American light fixture manufacturers. Because we are held to know quotas by our manufacturer/partners, we maintain an objective stance toward the many type of High bay light fixture we can equip your proposal with. Rather than attempting to convince you that a certain manufacturer and model is what you need, we help you find out what lighting levels and optic requirements you need to fulfill first, and then we let you select what is in your best interest from a list of high bay lighting fixtures we recommend.

The advantage this offers the contractor is twofold. First, you have freedom of choice when you work with us and can combine your own expertise in fixture selection with our expertise in finding the equipment. Because we rely upon a nationwide network of distribution channels, we can find parts in stock when other vendors are suffering from a shortage, and we have earned the respect of manufacturers over the years to the extent that if you need something like high bay lights shipped ASAP to your client’s site, we can almost always get it there in a couple of weeks as opposed to six weeks to 90 days. Even better, the high bay and other light fixtures we sell are exclusively made in the USA and backed in writing by full manufacturer warranties. These are two very important qualities to talk about with your clients to assure them that the money you are recommending they spend is well invested in the best equipment in the world.

We carry high bay lights that are designed for both heavy duty industrial lighting and more detail oriented general and task lighting that requires a high CRI. If you are proposing a lighting system for a municipal civic center with an outdoor pavilion, we have high pressure sodium lights that will provide excellent lighting for nighttime entertainment and provide the additional benefit of repelling insects. (As you know, they do not like the yellowish hue that HPS lights produce.) Gymnasiums in schools, churches, and health clubs tend to favor the white light of metal halide high bay lights. If you are looking to install fixtures in one of these places, be sure to mention pulse start metal halide technology which is one of our newest additions to our inventory.

Some clients may be very reluctant to spend money in the middle of a recession. Non profits and churches are being especially hard hit now because they rely so heavily on donations that many are feeling the need to keep back for themselves. While they may be aware that new high bay lights will certainly make their facility look better, fear may motivate them to procrastinate investing in what they genuinely need. For these clients, RLLD Commercial Lighting offers fluorescent high bays with sophisticated electronic ballasts and exceptional color rendering capability. These fixtures can reduce power bills by as much as 40%, effectively paying for themselves in the process.

Furthermore, you may need fluorescent high bay lights for certain industrial clients, regardless. Assembly line work is very tedious and is very hard to ergonomically accomplish under the yellowish tint of high pressure sodium lights. Metal halide lights may also be too bright for workers eyes, and even if they are not, tend to render color rather poorly. More and more factories are now using fluorescents for these vary reasons. In addition to reducing overhead, they have found fluorescent high bay lights to produce a better, more comfortable illumination that is easier on assembly workers’ eyes because it is softer, more diffused, and renders color at levels closely approximating natural light.
