Vandal resistant and robust lighting is essential in environments where safety, reliability, and durability are critical. Our luminaires are engineered to withstand impact, tampering, and harsh conditions, ensuring long-term performance in high-risk areas such as secure healthcare facilities, custodial settings, rail depots, and public spaces.
Why Choose Vandal Resistant & Robust Lighting?
- IK Impact Resistance: Tested to IK10 and beyond for maximum protection.
- Tamper-Proof Design: Secure fixings and reinforced housings prevent unauthorised access.
- High IP Ratings: IP65–IP69K for dust and water ingress protection.
- Long-Life LED Technology: Reduced maintenance and operational costs.
- Compliance: Meets industry standards for safety and security.
Applications
Secure Healthcare: Protect service users and staff with robust lighting in challenging environments.
Custodial Facilities: Prevent damage and maintain safety in high-security areas.
Rail Maintenance Depots: Ensure reliable lighting in heavy-duty industrial spaces.
Public Spaces: Reduce vandalism and improve safety in public areas.
FAQs
What is vandal resistant lighting?
Vandal resistant lighting refers to luminaires designed to withstand deliberate damage and tampering. These robust lighting solutions feature high IK ratings, secure fixings, and reinforced housings.
What IK rating should vandal resistant luminaires have?
IK11 is the standard for high-impact resistance, but some robust lighting products exceed this rating for extreme environments. Our experience has taught us that the IK11 rating is inadequate against the sort of vandalism our products face on a regular basis. By testing to the BS EN60068-2-75 standard using a drop hammer we have extrapolated the data from 50 joules (IK11) all the way up to 250 joules of energy (IK20).
How does vandal resistant lighting improve safety?
By preventing damage and maintaining illumination, these luminaires reduce risks associated with dark areas, improve security, and ensure compliance with safety standards.
Can vandal resistant lighting be used outdoors?
Absolutely. Many products feature IP65–IP69K ratings for protection against water and dust, therefore making them suitable for exterior applications.
