The standard fixture for a car park

Shoebox is the shape, and the shape is the point: a rectangular housing that throws light forward and down across a rectangular area. A round fixture on the same pole lights a circle, which leaves dark corners in a parking bay laid out in straight lines.

The slip fitter bracket clamps onto a round pole tenon, which is how most car park poles are finished. Check what your poles have before ordering, because slip fitter and arm mount are not interchangeable.

Fixed or multi-power

Fixed versions are set at the factory. Multi-power versions have a selector, so the wattage is chosen on site once the layout is final. On a job where pole positions may move, multi-power saves reordering.

Uniformity over average

A car park at 2 foot-candles average with even coverage feels safer than one at 3 with bright pools and dark gaps. Space the poles for uniformity first, then check the average, not the other way round.

Dark sky rules

Many jurisdictions limit upward light and light trespass onto neighbouring property. Confirm the local requirement before specifying — a fixture already on a pole is an expensive thing to replace.
