Benefits of correct lighting
Light that supports the horse's well-being and circadian rhythm
LED lighting that creates no shadowed areas, is flicker-free and ensures optimal lighting and a good environment for your horses - with the correct placement and the right amount of lux.
A stable is also a workplace - and good orientation lighting in all areas helps ensure a safe and comfortable working environment for both horse and rider.
Correctly positioned lighting
with the correct lux level
RN Solutions' lighting solution for horse stables and riding arenas provides correct light distribution, reliable quality and fast mounting. Developed for efficient installation in both new and existing stables.
Installation
Fixed installation ensures stable operation. And with RNS Plug 'N Play, cables and connectors are ready for fast mounting where it makes sense.
Minimal downtime
Fast and simple installation reduces disruption to the daily routine. A major advantage in stables and riding arenas where the lighting is hard to access.
Robust installation
Robust luminaires with an IP69K rating withstand high-pressure cleaning, ammonia and dust - built for everyday use in stables and riding arenas.
Efficient lighting solution for horses
We supply LED lighting for horse stables and riding arenas that provides the right lux level and eliminates shadowed areas - with fixed or Plug 'N Play installation, whichever suits you best.
01 — Placement
Correctly positioned lighting
Lighting for horses is first and foremost about where the luminaires are positioned. Correctly positioned lighting ensures that no shadows form in the stall, in the aisle or in the riding arena - places where a sudden shadow can unsettle a horse.
The lighting is adapted to the shape and ceiling height of the room, so it spreads evenly instead of concentrating in sharp light cones that create shadows.
02 — Lux level
The right lux level for stables and riding arenas
Stables, aisles and riding arenas each have their own lighting needs. The correct lux level ensures good light for both horse and rider during training and competition.
A correctly adapted lighting solution for stalls, aisles, riding arena, wash bay and other work zones ensures that each area gets the light it actually needs.
03 — Flicker Free
Flicker-free light without shadows
Horses are sensitive to flicker that humans cannot see. That is why flicker-free lighting from RN Solutions is the optimal solution - it results in calmer horses, both in the stall and during riding.
Lighting in stables and riding arenas must withstand moisture, dust, ammonia and cleaning. That is why our solutions are supplied with a focus on robust quality, long service life and stable operation.
The solutions are available with IP66/IP69K rating, dimmable systems and intelligent lighting control.
04 — Plug 'N Play
Plug 'N Play makes installation simpler
Where it makes sense, the luminaires are supplied with Plug 'N Play connectors, so cables and connections are ready for fast mounting. This makes installation simpler for the installer and reduces disruption to daily operations.

Lux recommendations
Correct lighting for every zone in the stable and riding arena
Our lux recommendations are based on experience with lighting for horses - gathered from advisors, riding arena operators and stable owners.
01 — Lux and hours per zone
Each area of the stable has its own lighting needs
From stall and aisle to riding arena and wash bay - here are the recommendations for lux level and lighting hours in the different parts of the stable and riding arena. A stable is also a workplace, so good orientation lighting in all areas helps ensure a safe and comfortable working environment.
02 — Benefits
With the right lighting level, you can
- Achieve calmer horses and better visibility during daily care
- Ensure safe conditions for horse and rider in the riding arena
- Support a healthy circadian rhythm and sufficient periods of activity and rest
- Improve the working environment in the stable and riding arena
03 — Requirements
It often requires
- Even light distribution without dark patches or glare for horse and rider
- Flicker Free lighting that does not stress the horse unnecessarily
- A day length of min. 8 hours and a night period of min. 6 hours
- Optional lighting control via EasySmartFarm to follow a fixed circadian rhythm
The recommendations are indicative and should be adapted to the specific type of stable and riding arena, mounting height and use. Contact RN Solutions for a calculation tailored to your stable and riding arena.
