Lighting is more than just a visual necessity—it’s a key investment in safety, security, and your property’s curb appeal. For businesses across Southern California, properly installed commercial light poles can make a significant difference in customer experience, employee safety, and overall brand image. At Access Electrical and Lighting, we specialize in custom commercial light pole installations that are both functional and visually appealing.
Why Light Poles Matter for Commercial Properties
Whether you’re managing a shopping center, office park, apartment complex, or industrial facility, outdoor lighting plays a critical role in:
- Improving visibility and safety in parking lots, walkways, and entrances
- Enhancing security and deterring theft or vandalism
- Complying with local codes for illumination and accessibility
- Boosting curb appeal and creating a more professional, welcoming environment
Poorly lit areas not only create safety hazards but can also reflect negatively on your business or brand. That’s where we come in.
Our Commercial Light Pole Installation Process
At Access Electrical and Lighting, we bring years of experience in installing and upgrading light poles throughout Southern California. Our process is designed to be efficient, compliant, and tailored to your site’s needs.
1. Site Assessment & Lighting Plan
Every property is unique. We begin with an on-site evaluation to determine optimal pole height, fixture type, spacing, and light coverage. Whether you’re lighting a sprawling parking lot or a compact courtyard, we’ll design a custom lighting layout that meets code requirements and your goals.
2. Permitting & Code Compliance
We handle all permitting and ensure compliance with local ordinances, Title 24 requirements, and dark-sky regulations. Our licensed electricians are familiar with the electrical codes and environmental considerations specific to commercial projects in California.
3. Pole & Fixture Installation
We install a variety of pole types—including steel, aluminum, concrete, and decorative poles—along with LED fixtures that maximize efficiency and longevity. All poles are installed with proper anchoring, conduit runs, and grounding for long-term performance and safety.
4. Wiring & Electrical Hookups
Our commercial electricians handle all wiring and power distribution for your lighting system, whether you’re on a timer, photocell, or smart control system.
5. Testing & Final Inspection
Before we finish the job, we perform a full system test to ensure all fixtures are functioning correctly, and that lighting levels meet your needs. We’ll also coordinate any required city inspections or utility coordination.
Benefits of LED Commercial Lighting
We strongly recommend LED lighting for all new pole installations. LED lights offer:
- Up to 70% lower energy usage compared to traditional bulbs
- Longer lifespan, reducing maintenance and replacement costs
- Brighter, more uniform light for improved visibility and safety
- Smart controls, including dimming and scheduling options
Over time, these advantages translate into major cost savings and lower environmental impact for your business.

Already have light poles installed? We also offer maintenance and repair services, including:
- Replacing broken fixtures or bulbs
- Pole straightening or re-anchoring
- Upgrading to LED systems

- Installing new photocells or motion sensors
Routine maintenance ensures your investment remains effective and compliant for years to come.
