Commercial Emergency Wall Packs & Battery Backup Lights

An emergency wall pack is a specialized outdoor fixture that serves two critical functions: it acts as a standard security light for daily use and a life-safety emergency light during power failures. Unlike standard wall packs that go dark when the grid fails, a wall pack with battery backup features an integrated battery driver. This system detects power loss and instantly switches the fixture to emergency mode, ensuring that building perimeters and exit discharges remain illuminated for safe evacuation.

Dual-Purpose Emergency Wall Packs & Security Lights

These fixtures eliminate the need to install separate "bug eye" emergency lights on the exterior of your building. A commercial emergency wall pack blends seamlessly with your standard architectural or traditional wall packs, maintaining a clean aesthetic while meeting strict fire and safety codes.

  • Daily Operation: Works just like a standard LED wall pack, controlled by a switch or photocell (dusk-to-dawn).
  • Emergency Operation: If AC power is lost, the wall pack battery backup engages, powering the LED array for a minimum of 90 minutes to illuminate the "path of egress."

How a Wall Pack with Battery Backup Works

These fixtures are designed for "Normally On" operation. This means the light is used for general security lighting every night.

  • Testing & Maintenance: Each unit is equipped with a push-to-test button and indicator light, allowing facility managers to easily verify the battery's health and compliance with monthly testing requirements.
  • Durability: Built with the same IP65 weather-rated housings as standard wall packs, they provide reliable security light battery backup performance in rain, snow, and extreme temperatures.

Compliance for Commercial Emergency Wall Packs

For commercial buildings, schools, and multi-family housing, maintaining a lit path from the building exit to a "public way" (like a street or parking lot) is a code requirement. Installing emergency wall packs above exit doors and along perimeter walkways ensures compliance with NFPA 101 Life Safety Code and UL 924 standards for emergency lighting.

Frequently Asked Questions

How long does the battery last in emergency mode?

Per safety codes (UL 924), an emergency wall pack must provide illumination for a minimum of 90 minutes during a power outage. This gives occupants ample time to evacuate the building safely.

Can I use these as normal lights too?

Yes. These are "Normally On" fixtures. They function exactly like a standard wall pack every night (turning on at dusk, off at dawn). The battery backup only kicks in when it detects a loss of AC power.

Do I need a specific temperature rating for outdoor emergency lights?

Yes. Batteries can be sensitive to cold. Most outdoor wall pack with battery backup fixtures are designed with cold-weather batteries or internal heaters to ensure they function correctly even in freezing temperatures.

Where should I install emergency wall packs?

Code typically requires these fixtures at "exit discharges"—the area immediately outside an exterior exit door—and along any outdoor walkway leading to a safe public area, such as a parking lot or street. They ensure the path of egress is visible during a blackout.

How do I test the battery?

Every fixture has a test button on the housing. Pressing this button simulates a power outage, forcing the light to switch to battery power. If the light stays on, the battery and transfer switch are working correctly.
