Why do some shops attract people to stop at night? In addition to beautiful windows, lights are the real "invisible salesperson". As a flexible, attractive and efficient lighting tool, LED Spike Light is becoming a secret weapon for shop owners. This article uses an easy-to-understand way to tell you how to use it to make your shop "shine" competitively!
What is LED Spike Light？
LED Spike Light is a ground-mounted lamp that inserts the spikes at the bottom of the lamp into the ground or flowerbed, irradiating upwards to create a visually impactful light effect. You can think of it as a "glowing nail". It is usually used for exterior lighting and is suitable for various scenes, such as gardens, lawns, building exteriors, and storefront decoration.
Why Choose LED Spike Light?
The superior performance of LED Spike Light can significantly improve the lighting effect of the store's appearance. Here are its major advantages:
Energy Saving and Environmental Protection
LED Spike Light consumes more than 80% less energy than traditional halogen spike lights, reducing electricity costs and making it suitable for long-term use. At the same time, it does not contain harmful substances such as mercury and is more environmentally friendly.
High Protection Class
Most LED Spike Lights have an IP65 or higher protection class, which makes them waterproof, dustproof, and unaffected by rain and snow. Even Spike Lights with an IP67 waterproof rating can be immersed in water for a certain time.
Easy to Install and Move
The ground-plug design of LED Spike Light makes installation very simple and can be completed without complex tools. It can be firmly fixed on various ground surfaces such as concrete, lawn, and gravel roads. In addition, the position of Spike Light can be adjusted by unplugging, which is suitable for renting shops or temporary theme activities.
Controllable Beam Angle
LED Spike Light not only provides strong and uniform directional light, but also provides a variety of beam angle options (such as 15°, 30°, 60°, etc.), which can flexibly adjust the light direction according to needs. Whether it's wide coverage or precise spotlighting, the Spike Light makes it easy.
How LED Spike Light Applies to Storefront Lighting?
The lighting design of the store exterior should not only be beautiful, but also highlight the brand characteristics. The following are several typical applications of LED Spike Light in storefront lighting:
Highlight Store Sign
Shop signs are one of the keys to attracting customers, especially at night. If your sign is not conspicuous enough, you may miss out on many potential customers.
- Functions of LED Spike Light: LED Spike Light can be installed below or above the store sign, illuminating it with a precise beam of light, making it particularly eye-catching at night. Its high color rendering index (CRI) also makes the colors of the sign more vivid and realistic, enhancing the brand image.
- Example: A coffee shop can use warm white LED Spike Light to illuminate its wooden sign to create a warm atmosphere, while a modern clothing store can choose cool white light to highlight the fashion sense.
Illuminate the Store’s Exterior Wall
In addition to the sign, the lighting design of the store's exterior wall is also very important. Carefully arranged lighting can make the store more attractive at night, and even become the landmark of chain stores.
- Functions of LED Spike Light: Installing LED Spike Light on the ground and illuminating the store exterior wall can highlight the building's outline, texture or decorative details. Its adjustable beam angle allows for flexible adjustment of the light coverage as needed.
- Example: A high-end restaurant can use LED Spike Light to illuminate the stone texture of the exterior wall to create a high-end visual effect, while a small personality store can use colored beam projection to attract young customers.
Lighting Showcase Areas
Some stores also include showcases. Showcases are the best places to display merchandise, but they can be overshadowed by street lights at night. So carefully designed lighting can make windows stand out.
- Functions of LED Spike Light: LED Spike Light is installed outside or near the showcases to illuminate merchandise, sculptures or other decorations. This can highlight the key points, make the showcases look high-end, and attract passersby to stop and look.
- Example: A jewelry store can use LED Spike Light to emphasize the high-end accessories in the showcases, making them sparkle at night; while a toy store can use colorful LED beams to create a fun atmosphere to attract children and parents.
LED Spike Light is like "cosmetics" for a store. With a power consumption of tens of watts, it can make the store stand out in the night competition. Whether it is a low-cost milk tea shop or a high-end brand flagship store, learning to "talk" with the lights can turn every beam of light into an invitation to attract customers.
