How many high bay lights do I need for a warehouse?

Yakeen Lighting provides free DIALux simulation to calculate exact high bay quantities — typically 1 fixture per 25–40 m² at 6–12m ceiling height, depending on lux targets.

Calculating high bay light quantity depends on multiple factors. Here's a practical guide with typical values:

  • Warehouse (general storage): 150–200 lux, 100W–150W UFO high bays at 8m height
  • Warehouse (precision picking): 300 lux, 150W–200W at 8m height or closer spacing
  • Manufacturing floor: 300–500 lux, 200W–240W with 60° beam angle
  • Spacing rule: fixture height × 1.5 = max spacing between fixtures for uniform coverage
  • Send us your warehouse dimensions for a free DIALux simulation with exact quantities and positions
