How many times have you parked your vehicle in a parking garage and noticed that some of the fluorescent light bulbs were burned out? You not only noticed that the parking garage was dimly lit, but you realized it created a major security risk for anyone else who parked their vehicle in the parking garage. No one wants to be attacked and robbed in any location, but especially in a dimly lit parking garage.
This type of attack should alert everyone to all the risks and dangers surrounding poorly lit areas. While you may not have been in a position like this before, you may know someone you have or you may have seen a news story on an incident that took place. Have you noticed a difference between a poorly lit parking garage and one that has LED lighting? The difference is outstanding and can be quite dramatic.
Parking garages and parking lots can be complex environments to properly light. The majority of parking garages and parking lots will operate on a 24-hour basis. As a result of the parking garages and parking lots operating for an extensive period of time, the lighting in those areas will be exposed to some very harsh weather environments, along with some harsh environments in terms of vehicle traffic and foot traffic. Parking garages and parking lots should provide proper lighting so safety and visibility can be maintained at all times.
Thankfully, there is a better way to provide better lighting that will result in low energy consumption and low repair and maintenance costs. LED lighting continues to advance as the years go by, and the lighting provides a variety of benefits that many people and businesses may not be aware of. LED lighting can reduce maintenance costs significantly because LED lights can last up to 85,000 hours. LED lighting also has the ability to operate successfully in cold environments and hot environments.
When you improve the lighting in your parking garage and parking lot, you will be able to see your security cameras clearer than you have before because the lighting has been improved. Everyone who enters your parking garage or parking lot will feel safer when they enter your garage or parking lot.
