Office lighting in Ascot
What we do in Ascot: glare-free LED lighting for desks, meeting rooms and receptions. For office lighting in Ascot 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.
Local office lighting in Ascot
Offices in Ascot range from older suspended-ceiling floors with 600×600 fluorescent panels to newer exposed-soffit spaces where suspended linear LED looks and works better.
We usually phase office work in Ascot over evenings, one zone at a time, so nobody loses a desk while the ceiling is opened up.
For Ascot premises we plan works around opening hours, deliveries and shared access, which matters on mixed-use estates and high streets.
