High Bay LED Lights
LED High Bay Lights for Warehouses, Shops & Industrial Facilities
LED high bay lights replace traditional metal halide and fluorescent high bay fixtures in spaces with ceilings 15 feet or higher, delivering energy savings of up to 75% while providing superior illumination. Designed for warehouses, manufacturing facilities, distribution centers, automotive shops, gymnasiums, and retail spaces with high ceilings, these fixtures eliminate the warm-up time and frequent relamping associated with older technology. PROLIGHTING features industry-leading brands including RAB, Sylvania, and Keystone for reliable, long-lasting performance.
When selecting high bay shop lights, you'll choose between two main designs based on your space requirements. UFO high bay fixtures feature compact round housings ideal for open floor plans and point-source lighting, offering flexible mounting options and easy installation in tight ceiling spaces. Linear high bay fixtures provide elongated housings that deliver uniform light distribution across aisles, production lines, and rectangular spaces, making them ideal for task-oriented environments. Both styles are available with adjustable optics on select models, allowing you to direct light precisely where needed and minimize waste.
Modern LED high bay lighting fixtures offer field-adjustable features that adapt to your specific needs. Wattage selectable fixtures let you dial in the right brightness level on-site, while CCT selectable models typically switch between 3000K, 4000K, and 5000K color temperatures to match your workspace requirements. Battery backup models provide 90 minutes of emergency operation for safety compliance in warehouses and manufacturing environments, and integrated motion sensor compatibility delivers automatic control for additional energy savings. DLC Premium rated options qualify for utility rebates, and with lifespans up to 125,000 hours, these fixtures provide decades of maintenance-free operation.
