Make the most out of your garage with bright, efficient, easily accessible and safe lighting.
Shop lights embody the traditional look of a garage. These fixtures are typically a single-bar light fixture that usually hangs by a chain assembly (although they can be ceiling-mounted). Most of these easy-to-install fixtures just plug into an outlet. Whether you choose LED shop lights or the traditional fluorescent type, these are a quick, inexpensive way to light up a garage workshop.
Having between 1 to 3 lights should be more than enough for the average residential garage. By using energy-efficient, high-lumen bulbs or fixtures, you'll get the most for your money without sacrificing the visual appearance and clarity of everything.
If you have a one-car garage, you can install one light on the side of the door that's closest to your front walk. You can also opt for one light on each side of the door. If you have a double door, consider placing lights on the left, right, and center sides.
