The Country Club at Mirasol – Palm Beach Gardens, FL
Completed in July 2024, Frasure Reps supplied (50) LSI Zone Large lights for seven tennis courts at The Country Club at Mirasol in Palm Beach Gardens, FL.
With the Zone Large lighting system, the average light levels have increased by approximately 40% from the existing metal halide lighting. Frasure Reps worked with Fast Dry Courts (Pompano Beach, FL) to devise a plan to replace the existing lighting. Installation of the new lighting was performed by Fast Dry Courts.
Based on the club’s satisfaction with the tennis court lighting upgrade, Zone Large fixtures will be installed on their newly constructed pickleball courts, basketball court, and soccer field in late 2024 / early 2025.
One Love Pickleball – Ocean Township, NJ
Opened in August 2024, One Love Pickleball is New Jersey’s newest premier pickleball facility. Previously used for retail, the space was converted to (7) court indoor pickleball facility.
Frasure Reps supplied (54) LSI LED fixtures for the project. With the supplied lighting system, each court is illuminated at approximately 70 foot-candles average. Due to the height of the ceiling, a direct lighting solution was the best fit for this project.
The facility hosts open play for members and guests, hosts clinics and lessons, and tournaments. With the success of this project, the ownership group has plans to expand into additional locations.

Caution With Generators
Many lighting installers like to test LED fixtures with a portable generator before permanent power is connected to the site. To avoid damaging the sensitive electronic components within the fixture, we strongly recommend using an inverter type generator for this purpose.
Inverter generators provide a more stable output than standard generators. Standard generators can produce “dirty” power, especially during start up, that can damage solid state components typically found in LED fixtures.
