Bollard Lights
Bollard lights are low-height outdoor fixtures designed to light pathways, walkways, entrances, and perimeter areas with controlled, glare-conscious illumination. They’re commonly used on commercial properties and public spaces where you need reliable wayfinding light, improved safety, and a clean finished look—without the height or footprint of a full pole-mounted area light.
Our LED bollards are built for long-term outdoor use with a durable aluminum housing and a weather-resistant powder-coated finish.
Where Bollard Lights Are Commonly Used
· Sidewalks, pathways, and pedestrian walkways
· Building entrances and access points
· Courtyards, plazas, and outdoor common areas
· Perimeter lighting around commercial properties
· Parks, public spaces, and municipal walkways
· ADA routes and wayfinding zones
What to Consider Before Ordering Bollard Lights
Key project considerations include:
· Mounting method (concrete pad): Most commercial bollards are installed on a concrete pad. Confirm you have the right mounting surface and layout for consistent spacing.
· Light distribution (Type V): Type V distribution is commonly used for broader, more symmetrical pathway coverage. It’s a good fit when you want even illumination around the fixture.
· CCT selection (3000K / 4000K / 5000K): Choose warmer CCTs for hospitality and pedestrian comfort, or cooler CCTs for higher perceived brightness and security-focused areas.
· Wattage / output selection: If you’re balancing brightness vs. glare, look for adjustable output options so you can dial in the right light level for the site.
· Optical control & glare management: Options like louvers, 180° glare shields, and diffuse/clear lenses help control glare, add vertical illumination, or limit light in a specific direction.
· Finish & site match: Finish is often driven by what’s already installed on the property. This collection includes Dark Bronze and Black options.
· Dimming requirements: If the project calls for lighting controls, confirm compatibility with the control method being used (many commercial sites use 0–10V dimming).
· Voltage compatibility: These bollards are designed for 120–277V applications—confirm your site voltage before ordering.
Bollard Lights FAQs
What are bollard lights used for?
Bollard lights are used for pathway and perimeter lighting—helping with wayfinding, safety, and security around commercial buildings, campuses, and public spaces.
What height bollard should I choose?
Bollard height depends on the look you want and the lighting goal. Taller bollards can provide broader coverage, while shorter bollards can feel more decorative and lower-glare.
What does “Type V” distribution mean for bollard lights?
Type V distribution is a symmetrical pattern designed to spread light more evenly around the fixture. It’s commonly used for walkway coverage where you want consistent illumination in multiple directions.
What color temperatures (CCT) are available?
Many commercial LED bollards offer selectable CCT options such as 3000K, 4000K, and 5000K. Warmer CCTs are often used for pedestrian comfort, while cooler CCTs are common for security-focused areas.
Can I adjust brightness or wattage?
Some models include wattage-selectable or adjustable output options to help you match the site’s light level requirements. Check the individual product page for the available wattage/output settings.
What’s the difference between a louver, glare shield, and lens option?
· Louver: Helps reduce glare and can improve visual comfort.
· 180° glare shield: Limits light in a specific direction (useful near property lines or when you want one-sided control).
· Lens options (diffuse/clear): Can change the look of the light and how it spreads, including adding vertical illumination.
What finishes are available?
This collection includes Dark Bronze and Black finish options. Finish selection is usually driven by existing site hardware and the property’s appearance standard.
Are these bollards dimmable?
Many commercial bollards use 0–10V dimming for compatibility with common lighting controls. Check the product page for the exact driver and dimming details.
What voltage are these bollard lights?
These bollards are designed for 120–277V applications. Confirm your site voltage before ordering.
Are bollard lights rated for outdoor/wet locations?
Most commercial bollards are designed for outdoor environments and are commonly listed for wet locations. Check the product page for the exact listing and certifications for the model you’re selecting.
