Free planning tool generates lighting layouts, component lists and estimated electrical loads for residential and commercial spaces

ALPHARETTA, Ga. — September 4, 2026 — Hyperlite, a supplier of commercial and residential LED lighting, has launched its interactive Hexagon Garage Light Calculator. The free online tool helps homeowners, contractors and business owners plan lighting configurations for garages, automotive detailing studios, gyms and commercial showrooms.

Users can enter room dimensions, select tube lengths and adjust layout preferences to generate a visual plan and a corresponding bill of materials. The calculator brings layout design and component estimation into a single interface, helping simplify preparation for modular lighting installations.

Accounting for Shared Lighting Components

Planning a connected hexagon lighting grid requires more than multiplying the number of shapes by their individual components. Adjacent hexagons can share light tubes, while junctions require connectors suited to the arrangement.

According to Hyperlite, the calculator models light tubes and connector junctions as a connected network, identifying shared edges to avoid counting the same tube more than once. It then generates component quantities for the selected configuration, including tubes, connectors and power-feed cables.

The tool is designed to help users reduce counting errors that can lead to excess materials or missing installation components.

From Room Dimensions to a Layout Plan

The calculator supports automatic and manual layout options. Users can generate an arrangement based on the dimensions of their space or adjust the design to suit their preferred configuration.

Key functions include:

Room and component settings: Enter room dimensions and specify tube lengths and preferred border spacing.
Layout customization: Use an automatic fitting option or create a manually configured arrangement.
Visual planning: Preview a scaled layout showing the lighting grid, room clearances and designated power-feed points.
Material and electrical estimates: Review component quantities, estimated system wattage and current draw.
PDF export: Download the layout and component list for project planning, proposals or installation discussions.

Electrical figures generated by the tool are planning estimates. Final installation requirements depend on the selected products, site conditions and applicable electrical requirements.

Supporting Residential and Commercial Projects

Modular hexagon lighting systems combine geometric ceiling patterns with illumination for work and display areas. Their connected format also introduces planning considerations, including shared tubes, connector types and placement within the available space.

Hyperlite developed the calculator to make these considerations easier to review before ordering. By combining a visual layout with material estimates, the company aims to support clearer coordination among customers, contractors and installers.

The calculator is available free of charge on Hyperlite’s website.
