Lighting Guide

Best Lighting for Auto Shops

Auto shop lighting should help technicians see clearly under lifts, around bays, in parts areas, and in customer-facing spaces.

Auto shops need bright, usable light

Technicians need visibility under lifts, around bays, near parts, in detail areas, and at customer-facing counters. Good shop lighting reduces shadows and helps people see what they are working on.

Fixture placement matters around lifts

Lift posts, vehicle height, ceiling structure, and bay layout can all block light. A walkthrough helps plan fixtures around real shop conditions.

Office and waiting areas should not be ignored

The shop floor needs performance lighting, while the front office and waiting area need clean, professional light that feels better to customers.
