The Professional Guide to Installing Hexagon Lights
Many homeowners and shop owners love the clean, sleek look of hexagon LED lights, but there’s one common hesitation before buying: “Will I be able to install them easily?” This is a valid concern—nobody wants a half-finished garage lighting project hanging from the ceiling. That’s why this guide addresses the biggest installation questions and shows you how HexLEDLighting makes the process straightforward, safe, and professional.
Whether you’re upgrading your garage, detailing bay, barbershop or retail shop, we’ll walk you through what you need, what to expect, and why our hexagon lights are engineered for DIY success—even if you’ve never installed lighting before.
1. What Are the Common Concerns About Installing Hexagon Lights?
- “Do I need to hire an electrician?” – Our hexagon lighting kits come with a plug-in power supply, making DIY installation simple. Once connected and assembled, just plug it into a standard outlet to start using. If hardwiring is required, we recommend hiring a licensed electrician for safety.
- “How much time will it take?” – For small to medium hex lights kits, installation usually takes 1–2 hours. Larger kits may require more time, and we recommend having two people for easier handling, especially when securing the lights to the ceiling.
- “What if I want to connect the lights to a wall switch?” – Our Lighting kits are also hardwire-friendly. Each kit includes color-coded wires, making it simple for an electrician to connect to a switch for a seamless look.
HEXLED Lighting delivers the market’s most advanced kits, designed for safety, reliability, and long-lasting performance. Each kit features lightweight aluminum housing for superior heat dissipation, fire-resistant materials, and a grounded 3-pin design with built-in shock protection. With a lifespan of over 50,000 hours, our hexagon lights are engineered to outlast and outperform generic alternatives on the market, giving you peace of mind along with premium illumination.

As you can see, there’s no complex wiring or special tools required. Once the frame is assembled and mounted, you simply connect the plugs and turn on the power. If you prefer a hardwired setup, the color-coded wires make it straightforward for an electrician to connect to your wall switch.
