Complete LED Gymnasium Lighting for Clear, Safe Play

NCLTG supplies end-to-end gym lighting packages for school gyms, athletic centers, and multi-purpose sports halls. Our focus is consistent visibility, glare control, and reliable performance in tall, open spaces. We match fixtures and optics to your ceiling height, level of play, and surface reflectance, then confirm results with photometric layouts so you hit target foot-candles with uniform coverage.

What We Offer for Gyms & Sports Halls

  • UFO and linear high bays: high-output, high-uniformity fixtures sized for typical 20–60+ ft mounting heights
  • Optics & glare management: lens options and distributions to reduce glare and improve vertical illuminance for ball tracking
  • Controls-ready designs: 0–10V dimming standard; sensor-ready for occupancy, daylight, and scheduling strategies
  • Durability details: robust housings, impact-resistant lenses, and optional wire guards for ball-strike areas
  • Emergency & egress: compatible exit/emergency solutions and battery-backup options to meet life-safety requirements

Design Support & Compliance

Every facility is different. We take ceiling height, court layout, wall color, and spectator seating into account, then recommend wattage/CCT, optics, and row spacing to achieve the right balance of horizontal and vertical illumination. Our core series are DLC-listed and UL/ETL certified, making rebate applications and code compliance straightforward.

Controls & Energy Strategy

  • Scene presets: practice, competition, and event modes with tunable light levels
  • Occupancy/daylight: sensor integration to trim runtime and reduce demand charges
  • Scheduling: timed setbacks for after-hours or partial-court use
  • Dimming: smooth 0–10V control to fine-tune output by zone

Why Facilities Choose NCLTG

  • Performance verified: photometric layouts that document target foot-candles and uniformity
  • Consistent visibility: low-glare optics to support safe play and clear sightlines
  • Lower operating costs: high-efficacy LEDs and long lifetimes to cut energy and maintenance
  • Specification support: cut sheets, submittals, and guidance on available utility rebates
  • Reliable delivery: fast-ship options from Charlotte, NC and Dallas, TX to keep projects on schedule

Need a gym lighting layout? Share room dimensions, mounting height, and court lines, and we’ll provide a photometric layout, fixture schedule, and quote tailored to your performance, budget, and code goals.

Gymnasium Lighting Layout & High-Ceiling Fixture Planning Tool

Enter court dimensions, mounting height (MH), and target illuminance (or choose a sports preset), then select a fixture family (e.g., CoreBay linear or Halo X UFO) and lumen package. The tool generates a gym-ready starting plan with recommended fixture quantities, row/aisle spacing, and on-center spacing based on MH-driven spacing ratios.

Frequently Asked Questions – Gym Lighting

What type of lighting is best for gymnasiums?

LED high bay lights are best suited for gymnasiums due to their ability to provide powerful, uniform light in areas with high ceilings. They minimize glare, reduce maintenance, and improve energy efficiency compared to traditional metal halide or fluorescent systems.

How high should gym lights be mounted?

In most gymnasiums, LED high bay fixtures are mounted between 15 to 40 feet, depending on ceiling height and the desired light level. The CoreBay Series offers multiple output options to support a variety of mounting heights.

Do LED gym lights support dimming?

Yes. All gymnasium lights from NCLTG support 0-10V dimming, allowing facilities to adjust brightness levels for different activities like practice, events, or cleaning.

Are your gymnasium fixtures eligible for utility rebates?

Absolutely. Our CoreBay and Halo X Series fixtures are DLC Premium listed and ETL certified, making them eligible for most commercial rebate programs across the U.S.
