Commercial wall packs are surface mount light fixtures that install on the sides of a building. Wall packs are manufactured from cast aluminum housing, contain a ballast, a lamp, and a glass refractor lens that distributes illumination. Wallpacks come in both traditional styles as well as more high performance, glare free cut off type wallpack models for dark sky areas.

Most contractors prefer to install 175 watt metal halide wall packs around their clientsʼ buildings. RLLD Commercial Lighting also carries a full range of additional wattages, including the popular 400 watt high pressure sodium wall pack fixture, and specialty wattages in 35, 70, 100, 175, and 250 watts. All RLLD Commercial Lighting wall pack fixtures are manufactured in the USA, and the bulk of these lights have multi-tap ballasts that operate at 120, 208, 277, and 480 volts.

As most contractors already know, commercial wall packs are the most popular outdoor flood lights in commercial lighting today. Several new developments have diversified them now more than ever.

Restrike technology in MH fixtures
With the advent of new quartz restrike technology in round MH wall pack fixtures, you can now wire them to motion sensors and light up the entire wall when a possible intrusion is detected. This can be an invaluable negotiating point for you when you are dealing with a client on a tight budget, such as a non-profit, a school, a church, or a government building. Even though the expenditure of new lights may be a bit overwhelming at first glance, the added security that motion controlled wall packs can offer their building helps buffer the facility against the staggering losses caused by property crime.

Zero site line optics
Another wall pack fixture we are beginning to sell more and more of is the zero site line wall pack. In cities where dark sky laws strictly prohibit illumination from rising above the roof of the building, these fixtures are ideal security lights that simultaneously keep your client in full compliance with lighting regulatory codes. Zero site line high pressure sodium wall packs are made with forward throw optics and solid tops that prevent the light from shining into the sky. You see a great deal of these now in California, Arizona, New Mexico, and Colorado.

If you do are not familiar with the lighting regulations are in your clientʼs community, do not waste time tracking down city officials or attorneys. Ask an expert at RLLD. One of the many consultative support services we perform is lighting code and dark sky research. If you are committed to working with us, we will find out if the full details of the lighting regulations in your clientʼs area and inform you of which wall pack fixtures you can and cannot install on their building.

Fluorescent Lamps
We also have scores of new wall packs with fluorescent lamps intended to slash operating costs for clients on a limited operating budget. Fluorescents are an ideal light source in areas that are very concerned about light pollution. They diffuse the light to softer levels that are easier on the eyes but nonetheless maintain an effective, even spread of illumination around the building.

Each contractor who does business with us also receives a full photometric analysis of the clientʼs site to help determine foot candle requirements, fixture positioning, locations, mounting options, the number of fixtures, and the most appropriate type of lamp to use. The cost of the analysis will be subtracted in full from your purchase order at the time of your equipment purchase.

Also, RLLD gives you access to thousands of commercial fluorescent light fixtures from many different American manufacturers. None of our equipment is made overseas.
