Private Tennis Court LED Lighting Installation Guide for Global Projects

Private tennis courts require balanced illumination, good uniformity, and controlled glare to provide comfortable visibility for players. A proper LED lighting design should consider court size, pole height, mounting position, beam angle, and the required lighting level.

41SL for Private Tennis Courts

The FORTOMO 41SL is available in 300W, 400W, and 500W configurations, producing approximately 45,000–75,000 lumens with up to 150–170 lm/W efficacy.

For private and residential tennis courts, the appropriate wattage should be selected according to court layout, pole height, fixture quantity, and target illuminance rather than simply choosing the highest-output model.

Mounting Height and Beam Selection

Private tennis courts commonly use mounting heights around 6–8 m , although the appropriate height depends on the site and surrounding structures.

The 41SL supports multiple beam angles from 7° to 45° , including 7°, 15°, 25°, 35°, and 45° . Wider beams can provide broader court coverage, while narrower optics can help control light distribution from higher mounting positions.

Professional photometric calculations can determine the optimal fixture quantity, beam angle, and aiming direction.

Low-Glare and Comfortable Lighting

Glare control is especially important for private tennis courts because players frequently look upward during serves and lobs. The 41SL can achieve UGR <19 , helping provide more comfortable visual conditions when correctly designed and aimed.

For recreational and private tennis facilities, a typical design target may be around 250 lux average illuminance , with uniformity considered as part of the overall lighting calculation.
