Floodlighting & Area Lighting

Outdoor area and security lighting

LED floodlights light yards, car parks, sports areas and security perimeters. NPE selects the output, beam and mounting for even coverage and controlled spill.

We size the floodlight count and aiming for the area and target lux, coordinating the mounting, controls and any photocell or timer operation.

Frequently asked questions

How high should floods be mounted?

By the area and beam — higher mounting gives wider even coverage; we size the aiming.

How do I limit light spill?

With the right optic and aiming, and shields where a boundary must be respected.

Photocell or timer control?

Photocell for dusk-to-dawn, timer for scheduled areas; often combined.

How many floods?

From the area and target lux; the calculator on this page gives a starting estimate.
