What Are Hexagon Lights and How Can You Use Them?
Hexagon lights are revolutionizing the way Australians light up their garages, workshops, gyms, and creative spaces. With modern design, exceptional brightness, and unmatched configurability, these modular LED systems go far beyond just illumination—they enhance aesthetics, improve visibility, and transform environments. In this guide, we’ll explore what hexagon lights are, how they work, where they’re used, and why Hexspace is the leading provider in Australia and New Zealand.
What Are Hexagon Lights?
Hexagon lights are modular LED light panels arranged in a honeycomb or hexagonal layout. Designed for surface or suspended installation, each light panel forms part of a customizable pattern, whether it’s a basic 3-hex layout or a complex ceiling-wide grid. Built with high-efficiency SMD LED chips, hexagon lights deliver powerful illumination while keeping energy consumption low.
