What Are Wall Pack Lights?

1. What Are Wall Pack Lights? Wall packs lights are exterior light fixtures mounted on the outside walls of buildings. These lights are designed to illuminate large areas like parking lots, walkways, and loading docks. Their primary purpose is to ensure outdoor spaces are well-lit, providing security and visibility after dark. Wall pack lights by AQ Lighting are commonly found in commercial and industrial settings, but they are also used in residential spaces where security is a concern. Why Choose Wall Pack Lights From AQ Lighting? There are several reasons why wall pack lights are a popular choice for outdoor lighting at AQ Lighting: 1.Durability and Weather Resistance AQ Lighting’s wall pack lights are built to withstand harsh weather conditions, including rain, snow, and extreme temperatures. Made from tough materials such as aluminum and strong polycarbonate lenses, these fixtures can handle the wear and tear of outdoor environments without breaking down. 2.Energy Efficiency One of the key advantages of AQ Lighting’s modern wall pack lights, especially LED versions, is their energy efficiency. LEDs use significantly less electricity compared to older lighting technologies like incandescent or metal halide lights. This can lead to substantial savings on energy bills, which is crucial for businesses that need to keep their outdoor areas lit for long periods. 3.Security Benefits Proper lighting is one of the most effective deterrents against criminal activity. Wall pack lights help improve the visibility of dark outdoor spaces, making it easier for security cameras to capture clear footage. Well-lit areas are less likely to attract unwanted visitors or vandalism, which can bring peace of mind to property owners and employees alike. 4.Variety of Options Wall pack lights come in a range of styles, sizes, and brightness levels. Whether you need a wide flood of light to cover a large parking lot or more focused illumination for a narrow walkway, there’s a wall pack light to meet your needs. Some models also include motion sensors or dusk-to-dawn sensors, which can automatically turn the lights on or off, providing added convenience and energy savings.

2. How to Select the Right Wall Pack Light? Choosing the right wall pack light from AQ Lighting for your property can seem overwhelming with the variety of options available. Here are a few key factors to consider: 1.Lighting Area Think about the size of the area you need to illuminate. For large spaces like parking lots or building exteriors, you’ll need a wall pack light with a higher wattage and a wider beam angle. For smaller areas, a lower-wattage light with a narrower focus might be sufficient. 2.Mounting Height The height at which the wall pack lights are mounted plays a significant role in how much light they cast. If you’re installing lights on a tall building, you’ll need a fixture that can project light far enough to cover the desired area. For shorter walls, lower wattage or a downward-angled fixture may be a better choice. 3.Color Temperature Wall pack lights come in different color temperatures, which refer to how "warm" or "cool" the light appears. Cooler temperatures (4000K to 6000K) provide a brighter, more daylight-like appearance, while warmer temperatures (3000K and below) create a softer, more yellow glow. Most outdoor security lighting uses cooler temperatures for better visibility. 4.Power Source and Installation Wall pack lights are generally easy to install, but make sure to consider how they will be powered. While many are hardwired into the building’s electrical system, there are solar- powered options that can save on installation costs and eliminate the need for extensive wiring. Additionally, some models are designed for surface mounting, while others may require recessed installation. Cost and Maintenance from AQ Lighting Another major benefit of wall pack lights by AQ Lighting is their low maintenance requirements. LED wall pack lights, in particular, have a much longer lifespan than traditional lighting sources. They can last up to 50,000 hours or more, meaning fewer replacements and less hassle over time. Although LED wall pack lights may have a higher initial cost than other types, the long-term savings in energy and maintenance make them a smart investment.

3. Final Thoughts Wall packs by AQ Lighting are an excellent choice for anyone looking to improve the lighting in outdoor spaces. Their durability, energy efficiency, and security benefits make them ideal for commercial properties, industrial sites, and even residential use. Whether you need to light up a parking lot, a loading dock, or just want to add extra security to your property, wall pack lights offer a versatile and practical solution.
