Why is Lighting so Important?
Lighting is important for a number of reasons, not only does lighting affect your business massively, but it also sets the mood and creates an ambience. Decorating your commercial space and planning your interior down to every last detail means nothing if you’re going to get the lighting wrong.
Getting your commercial lighting right is crucial if you’re welcoming members of the public to your space, whether that be to shop, drink or eat. Lighting affects people's moods easily, so making sure you set the right tone is key.
Whether it’s LED table lamps, wall lights, panel lights, downlights or hanging ceiling shades, we have it all. Depending on your commercial space, you’ll be able to get creative in terms of lighting. Restaurants and bars offer an opportunity to have more free rein, allowing you to mix and match with different light solutions and accessories.
Apart from thinking about the interior benefits of lighting, appropriate lighting helps improve visibility, reducing headaches and eye fatigue - something none of us wants to experience whilst we’re shopping or eating a meal with family and friends.
If your lighting is off in your commercial space, people will know about it. Unlike your home lighting, commercial lighting has to be carefully considered and chosen, having the wrong lighting could steer away potential customers and make you lose business.
Different Lighting for Commercial Spaces
What style of lighting you chose ultimately comes down to the type of commercial space you have. With shops, offices, restaurants and bars being the most common commercial spaces, you’ll find that the lighting choices you go for will vary.

Shops
Unless you’re looking for a lighting solution for larger, mainstream shops such as Sainsbury's, Tesco or Asda, many shop owners go for more intimate lighting, with the aim of making someone's shopping experience feel personal.
With so many different styles of shops on the high street, it’s hard to decipher which lighting to go for. Bigger chains of shops tend to go for LED panels - a quick and easy solution when you're in need of brightening a large building or warehouse, whereas smaller shops go down the route of recessed spotlights or recessed downlights.
Small business owners are the ones who like to design and personalise their stores, with lighting included. Smaller businesses know the benefit of lighting and understand that their decor and style can help entice potential customers inside - because of this, many shop owners go for more extravagant light fixtures like LED pendants.
Offices
When you compare commercial spaces, offices are more formal and often don't require different lighting solutions. The most common style of lighting in offices is LED panel lights - a light application that provides excellent illumination and brightness across big commercial spaces.
Panel lights are integrated into the ceiling and lay flat next to each other. Because of their width, panel lights are able to brighten up large commercial areas such as offices and work so well to illuminate a space that other light solutions are rarely needed.
Made with aluminium frames, panel lights prevent any light leakage and have around 3600 lumens in general. Not all offices are big, which is why we’ve taken into consideration the range of panel sizes we need to provide. If you find that panel lights are too intrusive, our spotlight range has proven popular amongst business owners who are looking to light their office space up.
LED display spotlights are a more modern approach to office lighting and can be found in an array of both home and commercial spaces. Smaller offices tend to benefit from spotlights because of their homely feel and excellent light source. Spotlights are manufactured with LED bulbs within, meaning they last for an extensive period of time and don't need replacing often.
Restaurants and Bars
Often, restaurants and bars will choose lighting solutions that have a constant voltage, usually because of the long hours that they’re open. Creating a specific type of atmosphere in restaurant and bar spaces is crucial, not only do people want to feel relaxed in your commercial space, but they want to feel comfortable.
One of the easiest ways to try and persuade customers to sit at your venue is by supplying them with efficient lighting. Maybe you switch your lighting up when it gets darker outside to create a cosier ambience? If you’re taking advantage of the many light solutions on the market today, then you’re doing something right.
Depending on what kind of restaurant or bar you own, lighting is everything. Restaurants that are family-friendly and open to all types of people should be lit well and have strong interior features.
Adjustable lighting always works well in restaurants and bars because it gives you the option to change the vibe when it gets dark outside. At LED Supplier, we have many lighting accessories, including dimmer switches and colour controls - these work great in commercial settings.
Outdoor areas of restaurants and bars need good lighting just as much as indoors. With a range of LED downlights, LED flood lights and tube light fittings available on our site, it’s easier than ever to illuminate your outdoor commercial space.
