GAP Industries recently delivered a full LED sports lighting upgrade Gold Coast athletes can trust, replacing outdated fixtures with high-output, energy-efficient systems that meet the strictest standards of competitive sport. This upgrade isn’t just about illumination. It’s about safety, reliability, and long-term performance across Queensland.
Tailored Engineering for High-Performance Sports
The Gold Coast Performance Centre is a high-performance sports hub used by elite athletes and professional teams. Consistent, stadium-quality lighting is essential for training, events, and televised broadcasts.
GAP Industries was engaged to:
- Replace ageing metal halide fixtures
- Install LED floodlights engineered for sports venues
- Ensure full compliance with AS2560.2 standards
- Deliver a low-maintenance system with long-term cost benefits
This wasn’t just a retrofit. The solution was engineered from the ground up to eliminate glare, improve uniformity and reduce power consumption by up to 60%.
Smart Design, Smooth Execution
Every luminaire was selected based on beam angles, lumen output and durability. The new LED systems provide:
- High CRI (Colour Rendering Index) for visibility
- Instant-on capabilities with no warm-up time
- Durability under Gold Coast conditions
- Smart control integration for efficient management
To complete the upgrade safely and efficiently, GAP partnered with All Access Hire. Boom lifts ensured safe access to lighting poles with minimal disruption to ongoing operations.
Certified Lighting to AS2560.2 Standards
Our design team used photometric modelling, lux verification and precise aiming to meet AS2560.2. This ensures:
- Safe play across all sports zones
