How many hexagon lights do I need for a 2 car garage

Standard 2-car garage size

Typical dimensions: 5.5m × 6m (18ft × 20ft) ≈ 110 sq.m / 360 sq.ft

Hexagon grid lights commonly used in garages: Single panel power: ~36W / 48W hex light Target brightness for workshop garage: 300–500 lux Simple reference rule (widely used for hexagonal garage lighting):

Casual parking only (basic lighting): 6–8 hex panels

Garage + light workbench, cleaning cars: 9–12 hex panels

Full workshop, detailed car detailing, high brightness: 13–16 hex panels

Layout tips

Avoid lining all lights in one straight line; arrange in a spread grid for even light.

If your garage is narrower (5m×5m small 2-car garage): you can reduce by 2 panels.

Tall ceiling (>3m / 10ft): go up 2–3 extra panels.

Quick recommendation

Most popular balanced choice for average 2-car garage: 10 hexagonal lights

If you share your exact garage length/width and ceiling height, I can give a precise number and suggest a layout pattern.
