Solar Lights for Car Washes and Garage Yards in Kenya

By Qyvea Limited · Updated 20 October 2026 · 2 min read

Garages and car washes hold customers' cars and expensive tools. A lit yard attracts evening trade and protects what you hold.

Light for business

Customers come after work. A bright yard is easier to enter and looks open and safe.

Stolen tools, tyres and vehicle parts are common in dark yards. A motion light exposes anyone moving inside after hours.

Motion-sensor solar lights with the pole included. No wiring, no power bill. Pick your size:

A 2000W for the main yard and a 1000W at the gate and the store. Add a 3000W if the yard is large.

Mount lights above the height of vehicles and away from spray, and keep panels in open sun.

In short: A bright yard sells more and loses less.

Will water spray damage it?

Mount it out of direct spray and clear of the wash bay.

Can it light the wash bay?

It will light the surrounding area. For the bay itself, ask us.

Tell us where you want the light and we will recommend the right size, even if it means a cheaper one.
