Warehouse Lighting Retrofit
A retrofit that only swaps fixtures can still leave you with the old layout's mistakes.
Stellar treats a warehouse lighting retrofit as a project: understand the existing system, design the light levels you need and build the fixture plan around them. That way the upgrade improves visibility and energy efficiency together.

Retrofit vs. a lamp-only swap
Replacing lamps or drivers in place is sometimes a step. In a warehouse it is rarely the whole job. A proper LED retrofit for a warehouse usually means:
- Survey: existing fixtures, mounting heights, racking, task zones and schedules
- Design: target light levels and uniformity by area
- Bill of materials: high bay and other LED fixtures matched to the plan
- Install path: phasing that respects operations and downtime limits
Stellar leads the design. Installation partners are coordinated per project.

Who a warehouse LED retrofit is for
- Facilities replacing aging HID or fluorescent high bays
- Operations teams that want clearer aisles and safer docks without overlighting empty space
- Owners who want energy-efficient lighting with a documented layout, not a catalog guess

Design that sets the bill of materials
Incomplete fixture counts lead to change orders. Photometric design sets placement and quantity against your floor plan, so purchasing and installation stay aligned.
Photometric design: starting at $0.50/sq ft · 1,000 sq ft minimum. Learn about photometric design

Controls and no-radio sites
Occupancy sensing and zoning can refine energy use after the LED baseline is in place, where the facility allows wireless or networked controls. For secure or radio-restricted sites, Stellar can discuss high-efficiency radio-free options. We don't assume IoT on every retrofit.
The smart-platform story lives on Stellar Command and Stellar Sensors.

How Stellar works the project
- Layout-led thinking, built on energy efficiency and circular economics
- High bay and related industrial fixtures, including Super High Bay and X-Series when they fit the design
- A clear path into paid photometric design before anything is ordered
Questions
FAQ
Is a one-for-one high bay LED retrofit always best?
Not always. Matching the old spacing can repeat dark spots and glare. Photometrics show when a redesign beats a strict swap.
How long does a warehouse lighting retrofit take?
It depends on building size, access and whether you phase the work by zone. The timeline is project-specific; we set it once the design scope is clear.
Is the lighting layout free?
No. Photometric design starts at $0.50/sq ft with a 1,000 sq ft minimum.
