    Limit switch for shutting lights off above when garage door is up?

    Thanks, I used a color matched (brown colored) Clopay 14x14 garage door on the front of my shop to match the house. I was more worried about it fading the color in spots on the door. In the evenings we’ll have it up a lot I'm sure. Easiest thing is to put those two on a switch beside the garage...

    Limit switch for shutting lights off above when garage door is up?

    Hi guys, I’m putting high bay LED lights up in my shop. Is there a switch made that will shut the lights off that are above the garage door when it’s rolled up? When door is in the up position, it covers 2 of the high bay lights and is pretty close to them. Or should I just wire those 2 lights...

    New Shop Concrete - Unsealed

    Hi guys. My shop concrete has cured for 45 days. It was not sealed. It was power troweled. I’ve ordered the ArmorPoxy ArmorClad kits. I am planning to rent a grinder with a diamond bit. Do need to just rough up the surface a bit? Or how much grinding is needed?

    2ft Linear High Bay 110w 16406LM

    Thank you for the input. I will change both the Fc and the LLf. Are my reflectance numbers close? Also, for cost comparison vs output, what are your thoughts on the fixture I'm looking at?

    2ft Linear High Bay 110w 16406LM

    Hi guys, Im trying to design the lighting for my shop. My shop is 40x60x16.

Now that I'm building...

    Anyone have any experience with Utilitech 4 bulb T8 fixtures?

    I believe I've settled on standard 4 bulb fixtures with T8 bulbs for my 15' ceilings. At lowes, the high bay T5 lights are listed for 30-40 feet and the high bay t8s are listed for 25-35 feet. I was looking at either the 8' T8 fixtures (uses 4 T8 48" bulbs) or the Utilitech 48" fixture with 4...

    High Bay Lighting for 15.5' ceilings - Layout - Lamp Questions

    For my 15.5' ceiling, would you recommend a normal T8 fluorescent fixture? I just didn't want to have to put in 40+ fixtures. I can look into 8' fixtures to cut down on the number of them. On the Lowes high bay fixture at 15000-18000 lumens, I was looking at 20 fixtures to get the foot candles...

    Pole Barn Build 40x80x16 - Ft Worth area

    Thank you! I decided not to go with the foil/bubble wrap. I found several suppliers who offer wide rolls of coated insulation specifically made to install in pole buildings. It was 4k just for bubble wrap. The insulation quote for the wide rolls for the while building was just over 5k. That is...
