LED Street Light Fixtures for Every Roadway Application

LED street lights now illuminate highways, parking lots, and commercial properties in over 50 countries. These fixtures deliver 100 to 150 lumens per watt, which means a 100W LED replaces a 250W metal halide or high pressure sodium lamp while producing the same amount of light. The result? Energy savings of 50% to 70% and maintenance costs that drop because you're not changing bulbs every two years.

Municipalities, contractors, and property managers choose LED street lighting for one simple reason: the fixtures pay for themselves. A typical commercial parking lot upgrade hits breakeven in 2 to 4 years. After that, every kilowatt saved goes straight to your bottom line.

Here are the most common street lighting applications we serve:

Highways and
Roadways Lighting

Highways and roadways need 100W to 200W street light fixtures mounted at pole heights of 25 to 40 feet. The goal is safe and efficient illumination that helps drivers see lane markings, pedestrians, and obstacles without creating glare or light trespass into nearby properties.

Our roadway lighting fixtures use Type II and Type III light distributions to push lumens down the road rather than sideways. Most highway projects specify 5000K CCT for maximum visibility, though some municipalities now request 3000K or 4000K amber options to reduce light pollution and protect the night sky.

Airport Lighting

Airports require LED street lights along access roads, terminal drop-off zones, and perimeter roads. These areas need consistent illumination at 5000K for visibility while meeting strict glare control requirements so pilots aren't distracted during takeoff and landing.

Our airport road lighting fixtures carry IP65 ratings and operate on 100-277V input, making them compatible with international voltage standards. The durable aluminum housings handle harsh weather conditions from desert heat to freezing temperatures.

Industrial and
Commercial Lighting

Commercial LED street lights serve warehouses, distribution centers, manufacturing plants, and office parks. These properties typically need 80W to 150W fixtures on 20-foot poles spaced 60 to 80 feet apart. The goal is uniform parking lot lighting that helps employees and visitors feel safe while keeping energy costs predictable.

Industrial sites often run 24/7, so we recommend fixtures with dusk to dawn photocell sensors. The photocell turns lights on at sunset and off at sunrise automatically, eliminating manual switching and ensuring consistent illumination every night.

Parks and
Playgrounds Lighting

LED street lights illuminate trails, signs, and parking areas in parks and playgrounds. For these spaces, 30W to 60W fixtures mounted at 12 to 15 feet provide enough light for pedestrian safety without overwhelming the natural environment. Many parks now request dark sky compliant fixtures with shielded optics that reduce light pollution and protect wildlife.

Municipalities installing modern LED streetlights in parks report that people feel safe walking after sunset, which increases park usage and community satisfaction. The weatherproof IP65 housings handle rain, snow, and humidity without corroding.

Resort and Hotel
Outdoor Lighting

Hotels and resorts need street lighting along driveways, parking lots, and walking paths. These fixtures serve double duty: they provide safe illumination for guests while contributing to the property's aesthetic appeal. Most hospitality projects request 3000K to 4000K warm white CCT to create a welcoming atmosphere rather than the harsh 5000K daylight common in commercial settings.

Our modern LED pole lights come with multiple mounting options including arm mount, slip fitter, and direct pole top installation. This flexibility lets designers match existing infrastructure without expensive pole replacements.

Home, Farms, and Courtyards

Residential properties, farms, and courtyards typically need 30W to 60W LED street light fixtures. For driveways and courtyards, a single 50W fixture on a 12-foot pole lights approximately 2,000 to 3,000 square feet depending on mounting height and beam angle. Farms often need higher wattage (80W to 120W) for barns, equipment yards, and access roads.

Solar powered street lights work well for remote locations where running electrical cable isn't practical. Our solar LED street lights include integrated batteries that store enough power for 2 to 4 nights of cloudy weather, depending on the model and battery capacity. For grid-connected properties, dusk-to-dawn fixtures with photocell sensors offer the simplest installation.

Street Lighting Solutions

GS Light manufactures four LED street light series covering 30W to 200W for streets and roadways of all sizes. Each series uses high performance LED chips rated for 50,000+ hours and drivers that operate on 100-277V input. All fixtures carry CE and RoHS certification, with DLC and UL listings available on select models for North American municipal projects.

LED Street Light M Series

The M Series delivers up to 150 lumens per watt in 50W, 80W, 100W, and 150W configurations. These commercial LED street lights fit arterial roads, collector streets, and highway on-ramps where high lumen output and optimal lighting distribution matter most.

Each fixture includes a slip fitter or arm mount adapter for standard 2-3/8" poles. The die-cast aluminum housing dissipates heat efficiently, keeping LED junction temperatures low and extending lifespan beyond 50,000 hours. Available in 3000K, 4000K, and 5000K CCT.

LED Street Light Y Series

The Y Series produces up to 140 lumens per watt in a compact shoebox design from 30W to 100W. This LED street light fixture fits commercial parking lots, residential streets, and municipal roadway lighting projects where space is tight and budgets matter.

The Y Series housing measures just 18" x 9", making it one of the smallest commercial street lights in its class. Despite the compact size, it delivers up to 14,000 lumens at 100W. Mounting options include slip fitter, arm mount, and direct pole installation.

LED Street Light N Series

The N Series combines up to 130 lumens per watt efficiency with a slim profile in 30W, 50W, and 80W options. These LED road lighting fixtures work best for pathways, bike lanes, residential subdivisions, and low-traffic roadways where energy-efficient performance beats raw output.

At just 30W, the N Series produces up to 3,900 lumens, enough to light a 15-foot pole circle with 60-foot spacing. The slim housing weighs under 8 pounds, reducing wind load and simplifying installation on lightweight poles.

LED Street Lights R Series

The R Series handles heavy-duty municipal and highway applications with 120W, 150W, and 200W options. These street lighting fixtures deliver up to 28,000 lumens at 200W, making them suitable for wide highways, interchanges, and commercial parking lots requiring maximum illumination.

The reinforced aluminum housing carries IP65 weatherproof certification and survives temperatures from -40°C to +50°C. For retrofit projects replacing 400W or 500W metal halide fixtures, the 150 watt and 200W R Series models provide equivalent light output at 60% lower wattage. Optional dusk to dawn photocell and surge protection available.

Street Lighting FAQs

Most frequent questions and answers

Multiply pole height by 2.5 to 3 to get spacing distance. A 30-foot pole needs lights spaced 75 to 90 feet apart. Road width determines arrangement: single-sided for roads under 30 feet, staggered or opposite for wider roads. IES RP-8 standards specify lux levels by road classification.

LED street lights support 0-10V dimming, DALI protocols, and wireless IoT controls. Motion sensors dim fixtures to 30-50% when no activity is detected, saving an additional 20-30% on energy. Smart city systems enable remote monitoring, scheduling, and automatic fault reporting through cellular or mesh networks.

Dark sky compliant LED street lights use shielded optics with zero uplight (BUG rating U0) and warm CCT of 3000K or lower. Full cutoff fixtures direct all light downward, preventing sky glow and light trespass. IDA-certified fixtures meet International Dark-Sky Association standards for wildlife and community protection.

Retrofit kits replace the lamp and ballast inside existing fixtures, costing 40-60% less than full replacement. New fixtures provide better optics, thermal management, and warranty coverage. Retrofit works best for poles under 15 years old with compatible arm mounts. Full replacement suits aging infrastructure or major upgrades.

DLC-listed LED street lights qualify for utility rebates of $30 to $150 per fixture, reducing upfront costs by 15-30%. DLC Premium fixtures earn higher rebates due to superior efficacy. Municipalities must submit product documentation, invoices, and installation verification. Rebates can shorten payback periods from 4 years to under 2 years.
