The Best Squash Court Lighting Solution for Radlett Club
Integral LED carried out a retrofit lighting installation at the Radlett Lawn Tennis & Squash Club to boost their customers' experience during squash activities of different kinds and levels of ability.
Following the development of a dedicated lighting design plan, the outdated fluorescent luminaires were replaced by much more efficient LED battens. This enhanced the player experience and increased ball visibility. It also fully complied with the court lighting requirements set by England Squash.
Court Lighting Requirements for Squash
England Squash, the national governing body for squash in England, recommends a minimum lighting standard of 400lux for recreational play (measured at 1000mm above the floor) and 500lux for competition play. Additionally, the light fittings have to be robust enough to withstand ball impact.
After the lighting upgrade, the Integral LED team carefully performed both horizontal and vertical lighting measurement assessments. This made sure the lighting was complying with the recommended minimum requirements. By meeting these requirements, Radlett's customers can benefit from a quality light which is ideal for all squash activities, including coaching, training, practicing, holiday camps, leagues and tournaments.
The biggest challenge when implementing a squash court lighting project is eliminating shadows. Our lighting design guaranteed optimal light output from our LED battens.This made sure that the whole court was lit uniformly with clear visibility in the corners.
The optimal cool white correlated colour temperature (CCT) was also much appreciated by members of other clubs who came to Radlett Lawn Tennis & Squash Club to play league team matches.They were impressed by the quality lighting installation.
LED Lighting for Squash Courts is a Long Term Solution
After 5 years of service, our LED battens still deliver a consistent light output, making them a much more effective solution compared to the deteriorated fluorescent fittings that were installed before. The LED battens have also required no maintenance, giving them another advantage over their fluorescent equivalent which require regular maintenance.
Integral LED's custom lighting solution has given Radlett Lawn Tennis & Squash Club lasting benefits for the club and its users. Get in touch with us to find out how we can help with your sports club or leisure project.
