Inspecting and maintaining exterior lighting at retail locations and supermarkets is crucial and should be performed regularly. Exterior lighting carries the responsibility of illuminating your retail brand while also providing adequate lighting for outdoor security surveillance and making patrons feel safe in their environment.
The Need for Exterior Lighting Inspections
Exterior lighting inspections can discover improvements to better guide customer traffic patterns. Well-lit entrances and exits will help navigate both pedestrians and motorists to your location in busy retail areas. Dead spots can exist in parking lot lighting which creates an opportunity for criminal activity and contributes to shoppers feeling less safe.
Parking lots are often under-lit due to aging and blown-out bulbs. These fixtures require re-lamping with specialized equipment and bulbs that have the proper light distribution pattern to avoid dead spots. Additionally, retailers can add curb appeal to any commercial location with landscape lighting. Incorporating these fixtures will add the right aesthetic curb appeal with low-brightness bulbs and decorative fixtures.
