Why specify with us

What does good sports lighting actually mean to us?

01

A scheme that passes, the first time.

The right lux level for a school PE hall is different from a regional badminton competition — and getting it wrong means a scheme that fails sign-off or a space that doesn’t perform. We model every project to EN 12193 and CIBSE standards so you can specify with confidence and there are no surprises on site.

02

A space where people can actually perform.

Bad glare isn’t just uncomfortable — it affects performance, causes complaints, and reflects badly on the design. We position and specify optics so that players, coaches and officials can look anywhere in the space without squinting. Even light, no dark spots, nothing in the sightline.

03

Fit them once, leave them alone.

In ball sports environments, luminaires take punishment. We specify impact-rated fittings for those spaces — so a stray shot doesn’t mean a maintenance call, a claim, or a dark patch above the service line. The right fitting in the right place, built to last the life of the space.

How do we light sports spaces

From school sports halls to commercial gyms, we’ve lit them all.

Whether you’re fitting out a brand-new leisure centre or upgrading an ageing sports hall from fluorescent to LED, the fundamentals are the same: enough light, in the right place, at the right cost to run.

We work with architects, M&E consultants, school project managers and fit-out contractors on sports lighting schemes of all sizes. Send us a floor plan, and we’ll return a fully specified, photometric-backed scheme — complimentary on commercial projects, usually within 3–5 working days.

In-house lighting design on every project

Send us your drawings or a finishes schedule and our in-house UK team returns a fully specified, costed scheme — usually within 3–5 working days.

Gym & sports hall lighting FAQs

What lux level is needed for sports hall lighting?

It depends on the activity and grade of play — community use is often around 300-500 lux, with higher levels for competition. We model each scheme to the right standard.

Do you supply impact-resistant fittings for ball sports?

Yes — for sports halls and MUGAs we specify robust, impact-resistant luminaires suited to ball-strike areas.

Can you light a gym with a high ceiling?

Yes — high-bay and high-output linear luminaires deliver even, glare-controlled light in tall spaces.

Is a lighting design included?

Yes — send a plan and our team returns a costed photometric scheme, complimentary on commercial projects.
