Poles FAQ
Commercial light poles are structural supports designed to mount lighting fixtures in business and public environments. These include applications such as parking lots, retail centers, campuses, roadways, and industrial facilities. LSI’s poles are engineered for durability and long-term performance across a wide range of outdoor environments.
LSI offers a full range of outdoor lighting poles, including steel and aluminum options, as well as brackets and precast concrete bases. These solutions are designed to support various lighting applications while ensuring structural integrity and long service life.
Parking lot light poles are typically steel or aluminum and are designed to provide uniform illumination, safety, and visibility. Steel poles are ideal for high-strength applications, while aluminum poles offer corrosion resistance and faster lead times—making them a great option for commercial parking areas.
LED light poles refer to poles designed to support modern LED lighting fixtures. While the pole structure itself remains similar, LED systems often require optimized mounting configurations and can benefit from integrated controls for improved energy efficiency and performance.
Sports field light poles are engineered for high mounting heights and heavy fixture loads to provide consistent illumination across large areas. These poles must meet strict structural and performance requirements to ensure safety, visibility, and optimal lighting conditions for athletic environments. For more information on Sports Lighting please see our Sports Lighting Solutions.
Wind-rated light poles are engineered to withstand specific wind speeds and environmental conditions. LSI poles are custom-engineered to meet rigorous wind-load standards, helping ensure stability and reliability in demanding outdoor applications.
Light pole installation typically involves setting a secure foundation—either through direct burial or a precast concrete base—followed by pole mounting and fixture attachment. Precast bases can simplify installation by eliminating on-site curing time and ensuring precise alignment.
The most common materials for outdoor lighting poles are:
- Steel – Offers maximum strength and durability for demanding applications
- Aluminum – Provides excellent corrosion resistance and lighter weight
The right choice depends on environmental conditions, application requirements, and project timelines.
Yes. Many commercial light poles are made-to-order and can be customized for height, finish, mounting configurations, and application-specific requirements. This ensures optimal performance across different environments, from parking lots to sports complexes.
Light poles can be paired with a variety of accessories, including mounting brackets, tenon adapters, and pole bases. These components ensure proper fixture alignment, structural stability, and seamless integration with lighting systems.
