Frequently Asked Questions
What Is The Ideal Pickleball Court Layout For Lighting?
The ideal lighting pickleball court layout includes a scaled representation of the pickleball court, pole placement, and fixture mounting locations near the court. The lighting plan includes court foot candle readings and light balance calculations to ensure even lighting across the playing surface. This layout prevents dark spots and glare issues that can affect player performance.
How Does Pickleball Court Design for Lighting Differ Between Indoor And Outdoor Courts?
The biggest difference is the fixture mounting location. Indoor courts use ceiling-mounted lights that easily achieve desired foot candle levels and light balance. Outdoor courts require pole-mounted fixtures at the playing surface edge with specialized forward throw optics to push light onto the court. Glare control and weather resistance are also critical factors for outdoor installations.

Why Are Lighting Plans For Pickleball Courts Important?
Lighting plans ensure you select the correct fixture specifications and LED light output for your specific court layout. We create computer-generated photometric analysis that shows exact foot candle levels and light distribution patterns. This eliminates guesswork and prevents costly mistakes like insufficient lighting or poor uniformity that require expensive retrofits.
Do You Sell LED Pickleball Court Lights?
We supply complete lighting systems, including square straight steel poles, round tapered steel poles, and LED pickleball fixtures. Our LED fixtures mount directly on pickleball light poles with integrated mounting hardware. We provide both the lighting design and equipment as a complete turnkey solution.
How Do You Light Up An Outdoor Pickleball Court At Night?
We use two primary methods: side court mounted poles or flood lights installed farther from the court. The right fixture depends on your specific mounting locations and throw distance requirements. We offer free lighting plans to recommend the optimal light distribution for your court layout.
How Much Does A Professional Pickleball Court Lighting Plan Cost?
We provide complimentary lighting plans with fixture purchase to ensure proper system design and performance. Professional lighting plans typically include photometric calculations, fixture specifications, and pole placement drawings. This service eliminates the risk of inadequate lighting and ensures code compliance for your installation.
What Information Do You Need To Create A Pickleball Lighting Plan?
We need court dimensions, desired foot candle levels, and available mounting locations around the court perimeter. Site photos showing existing infrastructure and property boundaries help optimize pole placement. Electrical service location and any height restrictions also affect the lighting design recommendations.
How Long Does It Take To Complete A Pickleball Court Lighting Plan?
Most pickleball lighting plans are completed within 2-3 business days after receiving site information and requirements. Complex multi-court installations may require 5-7 business days for detailed photometric analysis. We provide the plan in PDF format with equipment specifications and installation guidelines included.
