Build Your Complete Post Top Lighting System
A complete outdoor post top lighting project requires the correct combination of fixture, pole, and mounting hardware.
Choierlight makes it easier to build a compatible commercial pole lighting system.
STEP 1 — Choose Your LED Post Top Fixture
Select the fixture according to your application, required light output, architectural style, color temperature, and lighting controls.
Choose from:
Circular Post Top Lights
Modern commercial area lighting
Acorn Post Top Lights
Traditional decorative streetscape lighting
Lantern Post Top Lights
Classic architectural outdoor lighting
Parachute Post Top Lights
Higher-output commercial area lighting
Solar Post Lights
Solar-powered outdoor lighting for selected applications
↓
STEP 2 — Choose Your Light Pole
Match your fixture with the appropriate outdoor light pole.
Choierlight offers compatible galvanized steel outdoor light poles, including 10-foot pole configurations for selected post top lighting installations.
Always verify:
Pole height • Pole top diameter • Tenon size • Fixture mounting size • Installation requirements
↓
STEP 3 — Choose the Correct Tenon Adapter
Does your existing pole have a different mounting size?
A pole top reducer or tenon adapter may allow a new LED post top fixture to be installed on an existing pole.
Choierlight offers mounting accessories including configurations designed to adapt selected 4-inch pole tops to 3-inch tenons.
Always confirm the exact dimensions of the existing pole and fixture before ordering.

How to Choose the Right LED Post Top Light
Selecting the right commercial post top light depends on more than wattage.
Consider these seven factors before purchasing.
1. Application
First determine where the fixture will be installed.
Park or Garden: Acorn / Lantern
Street or Community: Acorn / Circular
Campus: Circular / Parachute / Lantern
Parking Area: Circular
Commercial Property: Circular / Parachute
Decorative Landscape: Acorn / Lantern
2. Pole Height
Pole height affects light coverage, perceived brightness, and fixture spacing.
The appropriate fixture output should be selected according to the installation height and project lighting requirements.
3. Wattage & Lumens
Do not select an LED fixture based only on the wattage of the old HID fixture.
Compare:
LED wattage • Fixture lumens • Pole height • Pole spacing • Required illumination • Light distribution
4. Light Distribution
Light distribution determines where the fixture sends its light.
For open pedestrian and landscape areas requiring illumination around the pole, a symmetrical distribution such as Type V may be appropriate.
Always match the distribution to the project layout.
5. Color Temperature
Choose the CCT according to the environment:
3000K: Warm architectural appearance
4000K: Balanced neutral appearance
5000K: Bright daylight appearance
For projects where the preferred color temperature has not yet been finalized, a 3CCT selectable fixture provides additional flexibility.
6. Photocell
Choose a photocell-equipped fixture when automatic dusk-to-dawn operation is required.
7. Mounting Size
Before ordering, verify the dimensions of:
Fixture mounting opening + Pole top + Tenon + Adapter
Correct mounting dimensions are especially important when replacing an existing post top fixture.
LED Replacement for Metal Halide & HPS Post Top Lights
Replacing older metal halide or high-pressure sodium post top lights with LED can improve energy efficiency and reduce maintenance requirements.
LED post top lighting offers several advantages over traditional HID technology:
- Lower energy consumption
- Longer operating life
- Reduced maintenance
- Instant-on illumination
- More consistent light output
- Multiple CCT options
- Adjustable wattage on selected fixtures
- Photocell control options
- Dimming options on selected fixtures
For retrofit projects, compare lumens and project lighting requirements rather than wattage alone.

Frequently Asked Questions
What is an LED post top light?
An LED post top light is an outdoor lighting fixture designed to mount on top of a pole or post. It is commonly used for parks, streets, pathways, campuses, communities, parking areas, gardens, plazas, and commercial properties.
Where are commercial LED post top lights used?
Common applications include parks, pedestrian walkways, residential communities, apartment complexes, campuses, schools, shopping centers, hotels, streetscapes, parking areas, courtyards, and other commercial outdoor spaces.
What is the difference between an acorn and circular post top light?
Acorn post top lights generally provide a more traditional decorative appearance and are frequently used for parks, streetscapes, and communities. Circular LED post top lights typically provide a more contemporary appearance suitable for campuses, commercial properties, pathways, and general outdoor area lighting.
What CCT is best for post top lighting?
It depends on the application. 3000K provides a warmer architectural appearance, 4000K provides a neutral white appearance, and 5000K provides a brighter daylight appearance. Selected Choierlight fixtures offer 3000K/4000K/5000K selectable CCT.
What does a photocell do on an LED post top light?
A photocell detects ambient light levels and can automatically turn the fixture on at night and off during daylight, providing dusk-to-dawn operation.
Can LED post top lights replace metal halide fixtures?
Yes. LED post top fixtures are commonly used to replace older metal halide and HPS outdoor fixtures. The appropriate replacement should be selected according to lumens, mounting height, pole spacing, distribution, voltage, and project requirements rather than wattage alone.
What is Type V light distribution?
Type V distribution provides a generally symmetrical lighting pattern around the fixture and is commonly used for open areas where illumination is needed around the pole, such as parks, plazas, pathways, and certain parking or pedestrian areas.

Many Choierlight commercial LED post top lights support 100-277V input. Always verify the voltage specification on the individual product page before ordering.
Can I install a post top light on my existing pole?
Possibly. Check the existing pole top or tenon dimensions against the fixture mounting dimensions. If the sizes differ, a compatible tenon adapter or pole top reducer may be required.
