Parking lot lighting is an important aspect of any commercial facility as it impacts customer/tenant satisfaction, safety, and even liability.
Lighting: it’s an important aspect of your daily life. Without it, doing anything before sunrise or after sunset is nearly impossible. So you have meticulously chosen the right lighting for your office building, retail establishment, multi-dwelling building, shopping center, or other commercial business to ensure your clients, customer, and tenants are never left in the dark. But what about your parking lot?
Parking Lot Lighting
One area that often gets overlooked is the parking lot. However, parking lot lighting is an important aspect of any commercial facility as it impacts customer/tenant satisfaction, safety, and even liability.
Customer/Tenant Satisfaction
We have all been there before. You are trying desperately to find your keys, but there just isn’t enough light. It can be frustrating. And if you drop something, forget about it. Without parking lot lighting it can be almost impossible to find small objects at night. Where did my key go? Didit bounce under that truck, or did it find its way under that van? Hopefully it didn’t bounce into that storm drain.
Parking lot lighting can help keep your customers/tenants frustration free.
Safety
The parking lot is an inherently risky area, with vehicles constantly zigging and zagging and people weaving their ways through a forest of parked cars. These risks are magnified when lighting is not sufficient.
Parking lot lighting can help prevent injuries.
Liability
When accidents and injuries occur on your property, who is liable? The right parking lot lighting can help protect business owners from legal action.
“A review of case law shows that environments that have a specified flaw in design or negligence of conditions have some traction in litigation,” explains E.E. Richman, U.S. Department of Energy. “However, no cases show any succcessful legal actions when spaces incorporate reasonable lighting design practice, including light levels based on appropriate design references.”
