Are You Considering New Lighting for Your Indoor Tennis Courts?

Lighting is a critical component for indoor tennis facilities as it can significantly reduce electrical/maintenance costs, dramatically improve the tennis playing experience for your membership, and include a rather sizable rebate from your participating utility company.  Investing in a new LED Lighting System is a major consideration as many lighting systems now will last 10-20 years. With the 30 years of experience Sports Interiors has working with indoor tennis facilities, we wanted to share what we see as key considerations when determining what lighting system to go with.

Experience

This is an extremely important factor that should not be under estimated.  There are many lighting companies that claim to be experts in tennis lighting, but very few offer years of experience specializing in tennis lighting fixtures as well as installations. Questions to consider include:

  1. how many indoor tennis facilities have you installed your lighting system in?

  2. do you handle the installation process or is that contracted out to a third party?

  3. can you speak with a previous customer?

For 30 years, the founding Van Dixhorn family has owned and operated Sports Interiors along with numerous tennis clubs across the Midwest.  This has allowed our company to test out lighting fixtures in our own facilities to perfect the application process prior to installation at a customer’s facility.

Electricians and crews with experience in installing tennis lighting are an essential factor for successfully implementing a tennis lighting system.  There are many different components to think about when installing a lighting system in an indoor tennis club compared to other areas of a facility.  Different tennis playing scenarios need to be considered such as the reflectivity of the ceiling, the positioning of the lights, and the overall court layout..  Our electricians and teams of installers have mastered the efficient installation process as they have worked in just about every type of indoor tennis court layout imaginable.

An experienced team also can ensure a lighting installation is much more efficient and cost effective.  Many members of the Sports Interiors crew have over 20 years of experience installing indoor tennis lighting systems.  Just in 2019 alone, Sports Interiors installed it’s LED System in over 60 indoor tennis facilities.  Our team can install a lighting system on 8 to 9 courts in just a few days and work around scheduled court times to minimize or avoid disruption to club operations.  Other electricians less experience in tennis lighting have been known to take weeks for the same project scope.

In addition to delivering a proven LED System, Sports Interiors offers financing options, performs the legwork necessary to secure the rebate, and manages the entire install process from start to finish for you.
