Commercial LED Wall Pack Lights

STARLAKE commercial LED wall pack lights provide controlled exterior illumination for building perimeters, entrances, walkways, loading areas, warehouses, and industrial facilities.

Traditional, slim, adjustable, and full cut-off configurations support different mounting conditions and light-distribution requirements.

40W–120W | 3 Power Selectable | 3000K / 4000K / 5000K | Up to 140 lm/W | IP65 | 0–10V Dimming

Selected platforms combine selectable power and CCT, multiple voltage options, dimming, and optional sensor controls for commercial projects and distribution programs.

The primary selection question is not which fixture produces the most lumens.

It is:

Where does the project need the light to go?

Choose LED Wall Packs by Target Area and Distribution

A wall pack begins from a fixed vertical mounting surface and must deliver useful light outward and downward toward the intended area.

That creates a different lighting problem from pole-mounted or overhead exterior luminaires.

A practical selection chain is:

Target Area → Mounting Height → Required Illuminance → Distribution / Forward Throw → Output → Spacing → Glare & Spill Control → Final Wall Pack

Two wall packs with similar wattage and lumen output can perform differently because their optical distributions send light to different locations.

Full Cut-Off Wall Packs

Full cut-off designs prioritize downward-controlled illumination while limiting unnecessary uplight.

They can be useful where projects require greater control over light extending above or beyond the intended area.

Selection should still consider mounting height, target-area depth, fixture spacing, and photometric performance.

A full cut-off housing should not automatically be assumed to satisfy every exterior-lighting ordinance or project requirement.

Traditional and Controlled-Distribution Wall Packs

Traditional and other controlled-distribution wall packs can provide broader outward coverage from the building façade.

They may suit building perimeters, entrances, loading areas, and other applications where useful illumination must extend farther from the mounting wall.

The relevant relationship is:

Mounting Height + Distribution + Output → Forward Coverage

Fixture appearance alone does not establish how far useful illumination reaches.

Adjustable Wall Packs

Adjustable wall packs allow fixture orientation to change relative to the mounting surface.

This can help where the mounting location is fixed but the target area requires a different aiming direction.

However:

More Outward Aim → Potentially More Forward Reach + Greater Glare / Spill Risk

Aiming should therefore be based on the target surface rather than simply maximizing outward projection.

Across all configurations, the objective remains:

Useful Downward / Forward Light → Required Target Illuminance → Controlled Glare, Uplight & Spill

Lumens Tell You How Much Light—Distribution Tells You Where It Goes

Luminous flux measures total visible light output.

It does not tell you how much light reaches a doorway, walkway, loading zone, building perimeter, or ground surface.

For wall-mounted exterior lighting, illuminance at the target surface and the spatial distribution of that illumination are more useful design considerations.

Two fixtures producing similar lumens can perform differently if one concentrates light near the wall while another provides greater forward coverage.

Use:

Fixture Photometry → Mounting Height → Forward Throw → Spacing → Target Illuminance → Uniformity

rather than lumen output alone.

Where project performance matters, fixture-specific photometric data can help evaluate coverage, hot spots, weak zones, forward throw, and illumination extending beyond the intended area.

Selectable Power From 40W to 120W

The documented WK04 platform provides three selectable power settings within each base configuration.

Different mounting heights, target areas, fixture spacing, and required illuminance can require different output settings.

For contractors, selectable power provides field flexibility across different exterior zones.

For distributors:

Selectable Power → Fewer Fixed-Output SKUs → Broader Project Coverage

The highest setting should not automatically become the default.

Output should follow the lighting requirement and photometric layout.

Select 3000K, 4000K or 5000K

The documented WK04 provides selectable 3000K, 4000K, and 5000K CCT.

3000K provides a warmer nighttime appearance.

4000K provides a neutral commercial appearance.

5000K provides a cooler white appearance.

CCT should be selected according to architecture, adjacent lighting, project requirements, neighboring properties, and the intended nighttime visual environment.

Higher CCT does not automatically provide better security or better lighting performance.

The documented WK04 is specified at Ra >70. Projects with specific color-rendering requirements should confirm the required CRI separately.

Control Glare, Uplight and Spill Light

Exterior wall lighting affects more than the target area.

Depending on fixture distribution, mounting height, output, aiming, and property geometry, light can also reach façades, windows, neighboring properties, the night sky, or normal pedestrian viewing directions.

Three effects should remain distinct:

Glare → Excessive Brightness Within the Viewer’s Field of View

Uplight → Light Directed Above the Intended Downward Region

Spill / Trespass → Light Reaching Areas Outside the Intended Project Boundary

Controlling one does not automatically eliminate the others.

A lower-output fixture with appropriate distribution can sometimes provide a better site result than a higher-output fixture with poorly controlled optics.

Where these factors are important, evaluate fixture-specific photometrics together with site boundaries and applicable project requirements.

Built for Outdoor Exposure and Maintenance Access

Exterior wall packs operate through rain, dust, humidity, temperature variation, and extended nighttime operating periods.

The documented WK04 carries an IP65 rating and uses an aluminum-alloy housing.

IP65 addresses ingress protection under applicable test conditions. It should not automatically be interpreted as establishing suitability for every chemical, marine, immersion, or specialized washdown environment.

The aluminum housing also contributes to the fixture’s passive thermal path:

LED System → Thermal Interface → Aluminum Housing → Ambient Air

Maintenance should be considered because wall packs are frequently mounted above normal reach.

Fixture replacement can require lifts, ladders, restricted-area access, additional labor, or service scheduling.

The documented WK04 platform carries a rated life of more than 50,000 hours and a five-year limited warranty.

Actual field performance still depends on operating conditions, electrical environment, thermal conditions, controls, installation quality, and maintenance.

Controls and Electrical Options

Exterior lighting does not necessarily need maximum output throughout every nighttime operating hour.

The documented WK04 supports 0–10V dimming and optional sensor configurations.

Available electrical configurations include:

• 120–277V

• 120–347V

• 277–480V

Controls can support different operating strategies depending on site activity and project requirements.

The complete electrical relationship should be reviewed together:

Supply Voltage → Driver → Dimming → Sensor / Control → Project Wiring

Sensor availability does not automatically establish compatibility with every control requirement.

Photocontrol, sensor, dimming, driver, voltage, and wiring requirements should be confirmed for the selected fixture configuration.

Replacing Traditional HID Wall Packs

Metal halide, high-pressure sodium, and other HID wall packs remain installed on many commercial and industrial buildings.

LED retrofit selection should not use:

Existing HID Wattage = Required LED Wattage

Existing systems can differ in lamp age, lumen depreciation, reflector condition, mounting height, spacing, and optical distribution.

Use:

Existing HID Fixture → Existing Lighting Performance → Required Illuminance → Mounting Height → Spacing → Existing Distribution → LED Photometry → Required Output → Controls

This determines the LED replacement from the required site result rather than nominal wattage.

For larger retrofit programs, document:

• Existing lamp and fixture type

• Existing wattage

• Fixture quantity

• Mounting height

• Fixture spacing

• Target-area dimensions

• Existing light levels, if available

• Supply voltage

• Controls

• Existing mounting conditions

Site measurements and fixture-specific photometric data can then be used to verify the proposed replacement before broader deployment.

Where Are LED Wall Pack Lights Used?

Wall packs are suited to exterior areas where a building façade provides the mounting location and useful illumination must extend toward an adjacent ground or vertical surface.

The application name alone should not determine fixture output.

A loading zone extending well away from the façade can require a different distribution from a doorway immediately below the mounting point even if both use wall-mounted luminaires.

Wall Pack vs Area Light

Wall packs and area lights can both illuminate commercial exterior spaces, but their mounting geometry is fundamentally different.

Neither fixture family is inherently better.

Use:

Available Mounting Position → Target Area Geometry → Required Distribution → Photometric Performance

to determine the appropriate exterior fixture family.

How to Specify the Right LED Wall Pack

A reliable specification starts with the site.

1. Define the Target Area

Identify whether the fixture serves an entrance, walkway, building perimeter, loading area, parking edge, or another exterior zone.

2. Confirm Mounting Height

Mounting height affects forward reach, illuminated footprint, viewing angle, glare, and required output.

3. Set the Required Illuminance

Determine the target light level at the relevant horizontal or vertical surface.

4. Choose the Distribution

Determine whether the site requires stronger downward control, broader outward coverage, or adjustable aiming.

5. Select Output

Match wattage and lumen output to the proposed distribution and layout rather than automatically selecting the highest available setting.

6. Select CCT and Color Requirements

Confirm nighttime appearance and any project-specific CRI requirements.

7. Confirm Voltage and Controls

Identify supply voltage, 0–10V dimming, sensor, photocontrol, or other control requirements.

8. Review Environment and Compliance

Confirm exposure conditions, ingress-protection requirements, certifications, property boundaries, and applicable exterior-lighting requirements.

9. Verify Photometrics

Where fixture quantity, spacing, forward throw, uniformity, or spill control matters, use fixture-specific photometric data.

The overall sequence is:

Target Area → Mounting Height → Distribution → Illuminance → Output → Spacing → Controls → Environmental / Compliance Review

OEM and ODM LED Wall Pack Programs

STARLAKE supports OEM and ODM programs for lighting brands, distributors, importers, contractors, and project suppliers.

Customization can involve:

• Power and lumen configuration

• CCT

• Driver and voltage

• Optical distribution

• Dimming and controls

• Sensors

• Housing and mechanical changes

• Mounting

• Private labeling

• Packaging

• Certification support

For wall packs, optical and mechanical changes deserve particular attention because they can alter where exterior light is delivered.

A practical development chain is:

Application Requirement → Optical / Mechanical Change → Photometric Impact → Electrical / Thermal Review → Validation → Compliance → Production

Changing housing geometry, lens, reflector, shielding, or fixture aiming should not be treated as a purely cosmetic modification if it changes photometric performance.

Manufacturing and Quality Control

STARLAKE has manufactured LED lighting since 2010 and operates approximately 280,000 sq.ft of production space with manufacturing operations in Shenzhen and Cambodia.

The company has 50+ engineers working across optics, LED drivers, power supplies, thermal management, mechanical development, controls, LED integration, and product optimization.

STARLAKE also has 30+ QC professionals supporting production quality control.

Bulk orders undergo an 8-hour aging test before shipment. Newly developed products undergo validation including 30 days of continuous high-temperature testing.

These procedures support early electrical, component, thermal, and assembly screening. They do not by themselves establish complete product service life.

STARLAKE also maintains warehouse support in Ohio and California for selected North American inventory requirements.

What to Send for a Wall Pack Quote

For project evaluation or quotation, provide:

• Project application

• Fixture quantity

• Mounting height

• Target-area dimensions

• Required illuminance, if known

• Fixture spacing

• Preferred wall pack type

• Required distribution or cutoff

• Supply voltage

• Preferred CCT

• Control or sensor requirements

• Environmental conditions

• Required certifications

• Existing HID fixture information for retrofit projects

• Site plan, drawings, or installation photos when available

If output has not yet been determined, mounting height, target-area dimensions, and required light level are more useful starting points than a requested wattage alone.

STARLAKE can then evaluate:

Wall Pack Type → Distribution → Output → Forward Coverage → Controls → Electrical Configuration

around the actual site requirements.

Specify the Target Area Before the Wattage

The right LED wall pack should deliver useful illumination from the building façade to the intended exterior surface while controlling unnecessary light.

The central selection relationship is:

Wall Mounting Position → Target Area → Distribution → Forward Throw → Illuminance → Glare / Uplight / Spill Control

STARLAKE provides traditional, slim, adjustable, and full cut-off wall pack configurations together with OEM/ODM engineering, manufacturing, quality control, and North American supply support.
