Office lighting in Macduff
Glare-free LED lighting for desks, meeting rooms and receptions. If your Macduff office has window bays, daylight sensors can dim the perimeter row of fittings on bright days without anyone noticing.
Local office lighting in Macduff
We usually phase office work in Macduff over evenings, one zone at a time, so nobody loses a desk while the ceiling is opened up.
For office lighting in Macduff we design to about 500 lux on desks, as BS EN 12464-1 suggests, and keep glare off screens by choosing the right optics rather than simply adding more light.
Our teams travel to Macduff from across Aberdeen and Aberdeenshire. Typical nearby jobs include Banff, Turriff and Buckie, so we can often combine survey visits.
