Frequently Asked Questions
What Goes Into A Quality Lighting Design For Parking Garages?
The foundation of a quality lighting design for parking garages is a professional lighting plan. Lighting plan software imports floor layouts of existing parking garages, allowing us to add lights within the model to show illumination coverage. We can swap, move, add, or eliminate fixtures until optimal light levels and uniform light balance are achieved. The plan delivers precise light level calculations, light balance ratios, and 3D renderings of the finished installation.

What Are The Recommended Parking Garage Lighting Standards?
We recommend a minimum 2 to 10 foot candle average with a light balance ratio of 2.0 or less. This ensures adequate visibility for pedestrian and vehicle safety while maintaining uniform illumination throughout the space.
What Is The Ideal Lighting Layout For Parking Garages?
The ideal layout achieves consistent light levels and balanced illumination across the entire parking garage footprint. We focus on eliminating dark spots, reducing shadows between parking spaces, and ensuring adequate coverage in driving lanes and pedestrian walkways.
Are There Any Foot Candle Requirements For Parking Garages?
Local lighting requirements are typically established by your municipal permitting or zoning board. We recommend checking with these authorities for specific compliance standards. Many jurisdictions reference IES standards for commercial parking facilities.
How Many Lumens Do You Need For A Parking Garage?
The appropriate lumen output varies based on ceiling height and layout, but 2 to 10 lumens per square foot provides effective guidance. Higher ceilings typically require higher lumen fixtures to achieve proper ground-level illumination.
We Have Shadows Now Between Fixtures. How Do We Get Rid Of Them?
Shadow issues between lighting fixtures typically stem from three causes:
- The beam angle on your current fixtures is too narrow for proper coverage.
- Light fixtures are spaced too far apart, and you need additional fixtures installed.
- Physical obstructions like beams or columns are blocking light distribution.
How Does A Professional Lighting Plan Help With Our Project Budget?
A professional lighting plan prevents costly installation mistakes and reduces material waste by specifying exact fixture quantities and placement. We provide accurate project estimates upfront, eliminating surprise costs during installation. The plan also ensures optimal fixture selection for your specific application and budget requirements.
Can You Show Us Exactly How Our Space Will Look Before Installation?
Our lighting plans include detailed 3D renderings and photometric analysis showing exactly how your parking garage will appear after installation. You’ll see light level measurements, shadow patterns, and realistic visual representations of the finished project before making any equipment purchases.
What Information Do You Need To Create Our Lighting Plan?
We need your floor plan or layout drawings, ceiling height measurements, and any existing fixture locations. Photos of the current space and information about specific lighting goals or problem areas help us create the most accurate plan. CAD files or architectural drawings provide the most precise results.
How Long Does It Take To Complete A Parking Garage Lighting Plan?
Most parking garage lighting plans are completed within 3-5 business days after receiving your floor plans and project specifications. Complex multi-level garages or projects requiring extensive revisions may take 7-10 business days. We provide progress updates throughout the design process.
