LIGHTING SOLUTIONS
Parking structures are dynamic settings
requiring special considerations in planning,
construction and safety. In both day and evening
conditions, safe and effective movement of
pedestrian and vehicular traffic is the number
one priority in designing for parking structures.
Beyond the construction and code requisites,
the element of human interaction, pleasantry
and security is the reoccurring focus.

DESIGN + FORM
Envoy is a unique presentation of form, function
and performance. Uniformity, minimum
foot-candles and other design criteria are
accomplished through Envoy’s multitude of
reflector and shielding options. Coupled with
toolless access and release features throughout
the mounting, maintenance and removal process,
Envoy offers service friendly solutions throughout
every aspect of its design.
MATERIALS + PERFORMANCE
The Envoy design is driven by material and
performance specifications. The alliance of lens
and reflector has been tactfully planned with
careful considerations of fit and function. The
lens and reflector embody the foundation of
Envoy. Completing the blueprint is the housing
and mounting framework, with its intricate yet
elementary system that locates and secures the
unit in place, allowing unparalleled toolless
maintenance solutions.

DESIGN CONSIDERATIONS
[1] Adequate horizontal and vertical
illumination is required for the safety
and security of occupants within the
structure. Direct and indirect
illumination allows safe movement of
pedestrian and vehicular traffic,
including the ability to easily identify
vehicles, parking spaces and direction
of traffic flow.
[2] Glare from luminaires can distract
pedestrians and drivers, ultimately
compromising safety. Optical systems
should minimize glare and improve
visual comfort allowing drivers and
pedestrians to safely navigate their
paths.
[3] Quality and control of the installed
lighting system as viewed from both
the interior and exterior of the
structure. Avoid light trespass to the
surrounding properties.
[4] Parking structures tend to create a
feeling of enclosure also known as the
“cave effect”, caused by dark ceilings
and walls. System designs that offer an
uplight component help illuminate
ceiling surfaces and create an open
feeling of space while improving depth
perception.
[5] When the power goes out, emergency
“path of egress” is the highest concern.
Exiting individuals in a safe and timely
manner needs to be planned for
accordingly.
[6] Garage lighting should be viewed as an
investment in property, savings and
safety. Fixture design, installation and
maintenance all play an important role
and should heavily influence buying
decisions. Garage luminaries should
offer flexibility in mounting, resist
accumulation of insects, dirt and water,
and offer options that impede bird
nesting and vandalism.
[7] Luminaires must be flexible to account
for varying needs of the garage and
lighting design. Elements including
size, ceiling heights, depth of
structural beams and complexities of
parking stalls and pathways needs to
be considered.
THE MULTITUDE OF TASKS ENCOUNTERED IN A PARKING GARAGE ENVIRONMENT REQUIRE FORETHOUGHT AND PLANNING WHEN DESIGNING A NEW
LIGHTING SYSTEM.

INNOVATION
Envoy is truly unique in form and construction. Practical and useful features abound throughout the design, culminating in an extremely versatile
parking garage luminaire. By focusing on solutions that meet contractor and end user needs, Envoy overcomes the challenges of effectively and
efficiently lighting parking structures.
• FIXTURE DESIGN-Envoy’s form is clean and
practical with minimal ledges and a smooth
surface finish to minimize dirt and insect
accumulation. Coupled with an IP66 ingress
rating, Envoy can safely be cleaned by power
washing.
• REFLECTOR DESIGN-Lens contains “locate and
lock” emboss features allowing the reflector to
be positioned accurately offering repeatable
optical performance. Envoy’s industry leading
reflector systems are composed of three
elements and are specified based on
distribution requirements of the application.
• ADJUSTABLE LIGHT SHIELDS-Mounted
internally, all shield media has the ability to
rotate 360° per user preference, promoting
maximum light control flexibility and visual
comfort. Three [3] different types of light
control shields are available. House Side Shield
[HS], offers 120° of coverage in upper and lower
windows which may be used together or
independently. Drive Lane Shield [DLS], offers
60° of coverage on the lower window and can
be used with one-way or two-way directional
traffic via use of two shields. Concentrated
Downlight [CD], offers 360° of coverage around
the uplight window for a true “cutoff” rated
garage fixture.
• QUICK MOUNT/RELEASE BRACKET SYSTEM-
Spring loaded mounting bracket and toolless
lever action release, coupled with toolless
release hand latches for access to the lens and
electrical compartment. Envoy is the market
leader in ease of installation, maintenance and
removal.
• EGRESS LAMP OPTIONS-For path of egress
requirements, Envoy offers 26 different options,
featuring compact fluorescent, quartz and MR16
lamp sources. Multiple circuit options including
integral battery pack are available. An exclusive
Task Light [TL] option featuring an adjustable
light head is available for emergency or task
lighting needs.
• MOUNTING OPTIONS-Envoy offers 6 different
mounting configurations to accomodate any
garage lighting application.

INSTALLATION
[1] Install “Quick Mount” plate
[2] Loop hook, hang fixture and make
wiring connections
[3] Guide the wires into center access
hole. Swing up and slide fixture onto
bracket hooks. When “click” is heard,
installation is complete.
[4] ACCESS + INSPECTION + REMOVAL
Other garage fixtures force you to remove the
lens and ballast cover to access the
connections within the junction box. Envoy’s
“quick release” mechanism allows access with
the simple act of sliding an external lever. No
need to undo your work if you need to inspect
connections. Slide the lever in and push the
fixture away to lower the luminaire and
inspect electrical connections.
[5] MAINTENANCE
All of the fundamental tasks, including
re-lamping, inspection and fixture
removal, are achieved without the use
of tools. Toolless latches allow the user
easy access to the lens and electrical
compartments. By unlatching two latches,
the lens swings out of the way and is self-
retained during service and relamping. The
“quick release” system allows the user to
remove the fixture by sliding the lever in,
pushing away and lowering the luminaire,
removing the electrical connections and
finally removing the fixture off the
mounting plate. This is especially useful
when servicing or replacing fixtures and
allows service to take place without having
to block or shut down driving lanes for
extended periods of time.
SIMPLE, EFFICIENT AND SECURE.
Envoy’s “quick mount + release” attachment mechanism is standard on all fixtures and may be used with standard 4" J-Boxes and Envoy’s multiple
mounting accessories. A positive audible “click” is heard which signals the fixture is firmly secured and locked into place.

QUARTZ HALOGEN
Utilizing a T4 double contact bayonet base [DCB],
this lamp is a traditional option for various types of
circuit and lighting needs. Options [Q and EM]
utilize a relay device to sense power supply
conditions and extinguish the standby lamp when
power is restored. Option [EM/SC] features the
same lamp with no relay device, and is designed to
connect directly to a backup power source via a
separate circuit.
COMPACT FLUORESCENT [CF]
Advancements in compact fluorescent technology
have influenced migration to these sources for
emergency lighting needs. Compact fluorescent
technology offers an effective solution for egress
applications in providing equivalent circuit options
similar to quartz lamps with better uniformity, less
power consumption and longer lamp life. When
using HID as the primary lamp, various compact
fluorescent wattage options are available using two
[2] CF lamps in standby mode. Integral and remote
mounted battery pack options are available in
multiple wattages when either HID or compact
fluorescent lamps are used as the primary source.
TASK LIGHT [TL] MR16
Unique to Envoy, the flexibility and usefulness of
the task light option is immense as seen through
the number of circuit options and lamp types
available. Featuring a rugged vandal resistant die-
cast aluminum housing, the task light is mounted
to the exterior of the Envoy fixture and carries the
same IP66 rating.
Using the MR16 lamp source, this option can be
used as a primary means to light signage and retail
entrances or as a standby means to illuminate
pathways and stairwells in the event of power
interruptions and outages. Task Light features a
lamp head that can be rotated in both vertical and
horizontal planes. Various types of MR16 lamp
sources can be used to fit your lighting
applications. 120V lamps can be used with restrike
relays or can be placed on separate circuits to
provide light while HID lamps are in restrike mode.
12V MR16 lamps can be used with remote mounted
battery packs for power outage applications. For
the most lighting punch, Task Light is even
available with a dedicated transformer contained
within the Envoy housing that will operate 50 and
75W MR16 12V lamps. Envoy is available with up to
four [4] task lights to meet your general and egress
lighting needs.
PATH OF EGRESS.
Safe movement of pedestrian and vehicular traffic is the number one priority when designing for required “path of egress” codes. Envoy offers the
most comprehensive selection of path of egress options available to the market, with a board range of lamp sources and configurations to
choose from.

THROUGH BRANCH WIRING
Rated for use with 4IN/4OUT #12GA wires. Through branch wiring requires Conduit Tap [CT] option and provides [2] 3/4" NPSM threaded hubs for wire
access into side of fixture.

PENDANT MOUNT APPLICATIONS
Garage fixtures are commonly mounted to pendant pipes to bring the light source closer to ground level to achieve increased light levels. Many times
this is desirable due to higher ceiling heights or structural supports at the ceiling level that interfere and block light emitted from the luminaire. Envoy
offers multiple pendant mount solutions. When a bird nesting deterrent is required in pendant applications, use the [PBG] accessory.
FREE SWING PENDANT + PBG
ACCESSORY [OFFSET POSITION]
Envoy is attached to the pendant box [PBG]
accessory using the standard quick mount
release bracket system. The pendant
conduit pipe and free swing swivel hanger
system are provided by others. Because
the system is free swinging, the offset
pipe position must be used to allow the
fixture to hang straight.
RIGID PENDANT + PBG ACCESSORY
[CENTER or OFFSET POSITION]
Envoy is attached to the pendant box [PBG]
accessory using the standard quick mount
release bracket system. The pendant
conduit pipe and suspension mechanism
are provided by others. Because the
system is rigid and non-moving, the
center or offset pipe position may be used
to hang the fixture.
RIGID PENDANT + J-BOX
[CENTER POSITION]
Envoy is attached to a 4" junction box
using the standard quick mount release
bracket system. The pendant conduit
pipe and junction box with center
pendant entry access are provided by
others. The center position of the J-Box
may be used to hang the fixture.
DOUBLE-T STRUCTURAL CEILING
In typical double-T structural ceiling designs, the luminaire is placed between 2 beams that are no more than 4 feet apart. In a surface mount
scenario this method traps a significant amount of light within the ceiling structure, leading to compromised light levels on the work plane.

Parking Garage
Ceiling
When designing for T structure ceilings, the optimal
solution is to mount the fixture via pendant pipe at or
below the bottom plane of the beam level. Since beams
typically traverse laterally along the width of the garage,
using the rectangular [TG] distribution in the same
direction generally offers the best solution.

60° horizontal range. Shield is adjustable
but is most often centered in line with the
driving lane. Shield blocks direct high
angle light towards oncoming drivers in
the vertical plane from above 70° down to
40°. Two [2] sets of shields may be used
for 2-way traffic. Shields install without
the use of tools. Drive lane shields may be
used with any of the three [3] primary
optical distributions: Round [RD], Square
[SQ] and Rectangular [TG].

internal shield accessory controlling both
an uplight and downlight component.
Each shield covers a 120° horizontal range
and is 360° rotationally adjustable [upper
shield in 30° increments]. Shields may be
used together or independently to control
different angles and elevations of light.
