Bullhorn Brackets for Light Poles & Multi-Fixture Coverage
A light pole bullhorn mount is used when one fixture isn’t enough to cover the site. By adding multiple mounting points at the top of a pole, bullhorn brackets make it possible to aim fixtures in different directions—helping improve uniformity across parking lots, roadways, and large outdoor spaces.
Bullhorn mounts are common in projects where you need broader coverage from fewer poles, or where a layout requires lighting in multiple directions from a single pole location.
Common Applications for Bullhorn Pole Lights
Bullhorn brackets are often used for:
- Parking lots and perimeter coverage
- Roadways and intersections (site dependent)
- Sports and recreation areas (layout dependent)
- Campuses and large commercial properties
- Industrial yards and outdoor work areas
What to Confirm Before Ordering a Bullhorn for a Light Pole
To avoid fitment issues, confirm:
- Pole top size / tenon requirements
- Number of fixtures needed (single vs. multi-head layouts)
- Aiming requirements (coverage directions and spill control)
- Fixture mounting style (ensure compatibility with the bracket)
Bullhorn Mounts — FAQs
What is a light pole bullhorn?
A light pole bullhorn is a mounting bracket that adds multiple mounting points to the top of a pole so you can install more than one fixture.
Why use bullhorn mounts instead of adding more poles?
Bullhorn mounts can increase coverage from a single pole location, which may reduce the number of poles needed depending on the layout.
How many fixtures can a bullhorn bracket support?
It depends on the specific bullhorn design and project requirements. The number of mounting points varies by model.
Are bullhorn mounts used for parking lot lighting?
Yes—bullhorn mounts are commonly used in parking lots to aim fixtures in multiple directions for wider coverage.
Do bullhorn brackets work with LED area lights?
Often, yes—compatibility depends on the fixture mounting method and the pole top/tenon details.
Do I need a tenon adapter with a bullhorn mount?
Sometimes. If the fixture mount and the bullhorn/pole top don’t match, a tenon adapter may be needed.
Can bullhorns be used for sports lighting?
They can be used in some sports/recreation layouts, depending on coverage needs and fixture selection.
Can you help match a bullhorn to my pole and fixtures?
Yes—share the pole top details and fixture mounting type and we can help identify a compatible option.
