The right hardware is what turns a quality fixture into a reliable, long-lasting installation. Accessories and mounts include all the adapters, brackets, tenons and pole-mounting hardware needed to position your LED fixtures correctly and securely. Whether you're outfitting a single pole or a multi-fixture configuration across a parking lot, the proper mount ensures correct alignment, optimal light distribution and a clean, professional finish.
Types and Options
Most pole-mounting accessories are built to fit a standard 2-3/8" O.D. tenon, making them compatible with a wide range of area lights and shoebox fixtures.
Round and square pole adapters (typically 4" and 5") slip over the pole top to create a mounting surface. Twin spoke mounts let you install two fixtures from a single tenon, available in 90° and 180° configurations. Three spoke mounts support three fixtures at once, offered in 90° and 120° arrangements for balanced coverage around a pole.
Where They Are Used
These accessories are most common in commercial and municipal applications: parking lots, roadways, campuses, walkways and industrial yards. They're equally useful for residential and light-commercial outdoor lighting where multiple fixtures must share a single pole, helping reduce the number of poles required while maintaining even illumination.
How to Choose
Start by confirming your tenon size — most mounts here fit a 2-3/8" O.D. tenon. Next, match the pole shape (round or square) and pole diameter (4" or 5") to your existing or new pole. Then decide how many fixtures you need per pole: single, twin or three-spoke. Consider the spoke angle (90°, 120°, 180°) based on the directions you want light to face. Finally, verify that the hardware is rated for outdoor use and that fixture weight is within the mount's capacity.
FAQ
Will these mounts fit my existing fixture? Most are designed for a standard 2-3/8" O.D. tenon, which is widely used on area and shoebox lights. Always confirm your fixture's mounting requirement.
Round or square pole adapter — which do I need? Match the adapter to the shape of your pole. A round adapter suits round poles, and a square adapter suits square poles.
Can I mount more than one fixture on a single pole? Yes. Twin spoke mounts hold two fixtures and three spoke mounts hold three, with various angle options for the coverage pattern you need.
