Types of Parking Lot Lighting We Install
Jackson Electric installs every major style of commercial lighting fixture used on parking lots and adjacent commercial exteriors. Pick from pole-mounted, wall-mounted, and low-profile options to match your property layout.
LED Pole Lights
Full-height pole lighting (20 to 40 feet) for shopping centers, office parks, and large commercial lots. Even coverage with minimal dark spots.
Shoebox Fixtures
The workhorse of modern commercial lots. Bright, focused light with rectangular beam patterns that match standard parking layouts.
Wall Pack Lighting
Building-mounted fixtures for perimeters, loading docks, rear entrances, and alleys. Ideal where pole lighting is not practical.
LED Retrofits
Swap aging halogen, high-pressure sodium, or metal-halide heads for energy-efficient LEDs on your existing poles. Lower energy bills, brighter light.
Canopy & Overhead Lighting
Gas stations, drive-throughs, carports, and covered parking structures. Recessed and flush-mount options that meet code.
Bollard & Pathway Lighting
Pedestrian walkways, ADA paths, and landscape accent lighting. Low-profile fixtures that guide foot traffic at night.
Our Parking Lot Lighting Process
Every commercial parking lot project follows the same five-step process, whether you are in San Jose, Chico, or anywhere in between.
1. On-Site Assessment
We walk your property, measure coverage gaps, and talk through goals with your facilities team. No guesswork, no remote estimates.
2. Photometric Lighting Plan
A custom layout that hits California Title 24 code and your target foot-candle levels. Fixture count, pole placement, and beam angles are all mapped before we quote.
3. Permits & Utility Coordination
We pull city permits in San Jose or Chico and coordinate with PG&E if trenching or a service upgrade is required. Panel work, if needed, is handled in-house, see our commercial electrical panels page.
4. Installation
Licensed commercial electricians handle installation during off-hours or phased staging to minimize disruption to your business operations.
5. Walkthrough & Warranty
Post-install inspection, controls and photocell setup, and documentation for your records. Workmanship warranty on every job.
