LED Shop Lights Frequently Asked Questions
Why Choose LED Shop Lights?
LED shop light fixtures are overhead lights that are much brighter than fluorescent shop lights, and they can include sensors that cause automatic illumination when you enter a room. They illuminate any area where a task is performed, such as your workshop. The right shop light fixture will depend on a few factors, such as the available space, the light spread required, and the mounting preference (whether walls or ceiling). Performing certain tasks with proper illumination requires that these industrial LED shop lights have the following qualities:
- High color rendering (a color rendering index (CRI) rating of at least 80)
- High color temperature (CCT) of 4000K or 5000K
- High lumen output, which is dependent on the amount of space or fixture mounting height used for the given task
- Can be surface-mounted or hung with hooks, chains, or cables

Where Are LED Shop Lights Used?
LED bulbs contain no mercury and are safe to use compared to fluorescent bulbs, which are hazardous when they break. Commercial and industrial LED shop lights can be used for many applications. You can also retrofit LED shop lights with one of our LED retrofit kits. Below are some examples of how LED shop lighting can be used:
- Auto Body Shop Lighting
- Garage Lighting
- Basement Lighting
- Welding Shop Lighting
- studio lighting
- storage room lighting
- Workshop Lighting
- Utility Room Lighting
- Shed Lighting
- Repair Shop Lighting
- Retail & Grocery Store Lighting
How Long Does LED Shop Lighting Last?
Commercial LED bulbs have the highest ratings, lasting between 50,000 to 100,000 hours and 8-10 times longer than CFL incandescent bulbs or fluorescent tube lamps. The exact duration of your LED bulbs will depend on a few factors, including the environment, color temperature, quality of the light, and more. LED light bulbs do get hot. LED lights have a heat sink in the base that dissipates heat, allowing the LED bulb to stay cool and provide longer life.
What Are the Different Types of LED Shop Lighting?
LED lights for shops come in various shapes and styles of fixtures to suit specific light requirements and coverage needs. Among these shapes and styles are linear strip lights, linear high bays, round low and high bays, UFO high bays, grid-mount low and high bays, and wet-rated shop lights.
How Many Shop Lights Do I Need?
The number of LED shop light fixtures needed is determined by the size of the space, ceiling height, and building usage. For a ceiling height of 10 feet or lower, we recommend LED shop lights that are around 100 watts and deliver 10000-12000 lumens. For ceiling heights of between 12-20 feet, high bay lights in the 125-175 watt (12000-21000 lumens) range are most commonly used. In areas requiring higher light levels and less glare, such as low mounting heights, reflectors and lenses can be added to our UFO fixtures.
As the ceiling height increases, the wattage and the lumen output should also increase:
- 8-10 feet = 80-100 watts (10,000-12,000 lumens)
- 12-20 feet = 125-175 watt (12,000-21,000 lumens)
- 18-25 feet = 200-300 watt (22,000-35,000 lumens)
- 20-30+ feet = 300-400 watt (35,000-47,000+ lumens)
How to Choose the Perfect LED Shop Lights
Selecting the right LED shop lights is important for receiving the optimal brightness, energy efficiency, and durability in your workspace. Consider these key factors to ensure you get the best lighting solution for your needs:
- How high are your ceilings? This will determine the lumen output and wattage needed.
- How bright do you need your space to be? The higher the lumen output, the better visibility you'll have.
- What type of lighting works best for your tasks? 4000K provides balanced lighting for general workspaces. 5000K offers crisp, high-visibility light for detailed work.
- How will you install your lights? Choose from surface-mounted lights, suspended fixtures, or plug-and-play options for quick setup.
- Do you need adjustable brightness or motion activation? Dimmable LED shop lights let you control light levels. Motion sensors add convenience and energy savings.
- Will your lights be exposed to moisture or dust? For garages, sheds, and industrial spaces, damp or wet-rated fixtures provide protection against humidity and debris.
