Golf Course and Driving Range Lighting Fixtures & Product Sales.
Commercial lighting designers and electrical professionals on staff with
resorts and country clubs will find a complete selection of golf lights in RLL
Design’s inventory of driving range and golf course lighting fixtures and
lamps. A full stock of mounts and accessories is also maintained so that the
contractor or DYI installer can utilize our source as a one shop depot of
commercial grade equipment. In order to accommodate both the
sophisticated country club and the public driving range, lighting fixtures are
available in a wide variety of finishes that offer durable protection from the
elements and an aesthetic compliment appropriate to a particular
facility. Conservative establishments with a cost-consciousness for
operations spending can greatly benefit from any number of options in low
voltage putting green lights or high voltage fluorescent golf course
lights. These golf lights use considerably less power than incandescentbased technology and dispel shadows with glare free lighting that allow for
accurate shots at any hour of the night. Resorts and country clubs will
greatly appreciate the eclectic range of both wood and steel poles and
lighting poles that can be utilized for any number of eclectic design
combinations to compliment outdoor lighting and exterior architecture.

For the convenience of both commercial lighting specialists and in house employees
who will be performing a DYI lighting installation, we divide our inventory into two
categories of golf lights: putting green lights and driving range lights. In most cases,
large driving ranges require a custom golf course lighting design consisting of either
400-watt or 1000-watt fixtures mounted on steel or wooden poles which can ordered
along with fixtures and accessories from an RLL Design lighting specialist. Lighting
specialists will help both individual electricians and professional lighting firms match
fixture to mount in order to fulfill the eclectic design requirements of lavish resorts and
exclusive retreats.
Putting green lights can be obtained in either high voltage or low voltage
models. Fluorescent 120V lamps conserve power and feature a bulb life of up to
10,000 hours. This offers a competitive advantage to the contractor proposing a
system to a client concerned about replacement costs in the midst of the recession,
as it offers any organization the benefit of a single purchase that will last for many
years. During special times of the year such as Christmas, these putting green lights
can even be adjusted for softer lighting conditions, decorative landscape lighting, or
special theme lighting on the golf course. Halogen lamps are also available in a
variety of wattages, and all lamp types are fully protected by durable Solite tempered
glass that prevents ball impacts from breaking the bulb. Sheik black pedestals that
provide exceptional mounts for putting green light fixtures to provide an all around
compliment for a wide range of residential, private, municipal parks, and adjacent
building architecture.

Smaller golf courses that are considering contracting a local electrician to install
driving range lights and putting green lighting fixtures should emphasize to their
vendor the importance of using only commercial grade golf lights. Many freelance
electricians may consider offering a savings bundled into their proposals by
recommending retail driving range and putting green light fixtures as a cost cutting
options. This is never advisable for a number of reasons. Retail-grade lenses offer
much less impact resistance to golf balls and will often break- resulting in both
replacement costs and additional labor rates. Wiring is also generally inferior in retail
golf light fixtures, deteriorating more rapidly and resulting in short circuits shorter
lamp life. Investing only a marginally larger amount in equipment that will last several
years longer represents a single purchase that is both economically recession proof
and aesthetically superior due to more variety in finish, mounting, and customized
design options.
Creating a golf course lighting design that illuminates the greens and compliments
aesthetic décor may take more than technical fixture selection to serve the needs of a
resort or exclusive country club. Contractors, electricians, and employees conducting
a DYI installation can rely upon RLL Design for online and phone-based consultation
and planning services offered complimentary to new clients and serious inquirers.
