Hexagon LED garage lights hang as a honeycomb of short LED tubes joined by connectors, so the light itself becomes the ceiling pattern. The spec sheets list applications such as car beauty, auto repair, garages and workstations, and detail shops and showrooms use the grid where the ceiling pattern is part of the look. This guide covers the two hexagon kits we list, the grid size and layout footprint, power and voltage, and what to plan before you order, using the manufacturer's spec sheets.
How a hexagon grid is built
A hexagon kit is not one fixture. It ships as a set of straight LED tubes plus snap in connectors (Y and angle shapes on the 5 grid; Y, T, V and angle shapes on the 14 grid). You press the tubes into the connectors to form each six sided cell, and the cells share sides. Power enters at one point, shown on each sheet's assembly diagram.
- Tubes: 440 mm LED tubes form the cells. The larger kit adds 1175 mm tubes for the outer frame.
- LED and color: SMD2835 LEDs at 6500K, a cool daylight white, with a 120 degree beam, per the spec sheets.
- Body: aluminum and polycarbonate, rated IP20.
6500K is the only color temperature for these kits. If you want to compare it with 4000K or 5000K, see our LED color temperature guide.
The two kits we list
| Kit | From the spec sheet | Price |
|---|---|---|
| EDIPAI Hexagon Light, 5 grids | 192W (24 tubes at 8W); 24 tubes of 440 mm; 6500K; 120 degree beam; IP20 | $98.50 |
| EDIPAI Hexagon Light, 14 grids | 680W; 57 tubes of 440 mm plus 12 tubes of 1175 mm; 6500K; 120 degree beam; IP20; overall size 4845 by 2435 mm | $246.00 |

Grid size and layout footprint
Pick the kit by the floor area you want under the pattern, not by wattage alone. The 14 grid sheet gives an overall frame of 4845 mm by 2435 mm, which is about 16 ft by 8 ft. The 5 grid kit is a smaller cluster of five cells; lay it out from the assembly diagram on its spec sheet before you mark the ceiling.
- Measure the bay: mark the vehicle footprint and the walking space around it, then check the frame against the open ceiling area.
- Check obstructions: door tracks, lifts, sprinkler heads and ducts set where the frame can go.
- Set the feed point: the power cord enters at one corner on the diagram, so plan the receptacle or junction box there.
- Light level: for target foot candles by task, see foot candle requirements by space type.
Power and voltage
The 5 grid kit draws 192W and the 14 grid kit draws 680W, per the sheets, with an efficacy of 110 to 120 lumens per watt. Both the spec sheets and our product pages list 120 to 277V input. Add the kit wattage to the circuit load the same way you would for a standard fixture, and have an electrician size the circuit. For more on 120 to 277V drivers, see 120 to 277V vs 277 to 480V LED fixtures.
Mounting and location
The installation page of the spec sheet shows two methods: zip ties to a grid or square hanger frame, or iron buckles fixed to the ceiling with self tapping screws, with the tubes pressed into the buckles. The sheet states that installation and maintenance are for a professional electrician only, with power off until the circuit is complete and checked.
Hexagon grid or shop lights?
A hexagon grid is for spaces where the look matters: detail bays, showroom floors, studios and customer facing service areas. For general garage and service bay lighting, strip lights, high bays and vapor tights cover the job by ceiling height. Our commercial LED shop lights guide covers those options.
Before you order
- Kit size: the 5 grid or 14 grid, from the bay footprint.
- Clearance: the frame clear of doors, lifts and sprinklers.
- Feed: power at the entry point and the circuit sized by the electrician.
- Location: IP20 checked against the space.
- Paperwork: the spec sheet on file. See how to read an LED spec sheet.
Common questions
What sizes do the hexagon garage lights come in?
We list a 5 grid kit at 192W and a 14 grid kit at 680W. The 14 grid frame measures 4845 mm by 2435 mm on the spec sheet, about 16 ft by 8 ft.
What color are the hexagon lights?
Both kits are 6500K, a cool daylight white, with a 120 degree beam, per the spec sheets.
What voltage do the hexagon kits run on?
Both the spec sheets and our product pages list 120 to 277V input. Have an electrician size the circuit for the kit wattage.
How are hexagon lights mounted?
The spec sheet shows zip ties to a grid or hanger frame, or iron buckles screwed to the ceiling with the tubes pressed in. Installation is for a professional electrician.
Can a hexagon light go in a wash bay?
Both kits are rated IP20 on the spec sheets. Check that rating against the space before you hang one where water reaches the ceiling.
