Office lighting work in Dyfed
We usually phase office work in Dyfed over evenings, one zone at a time, so nobody loses a desk while the ceiling is opened up.
Many Dyfed office landlords upgrade lighting between tenancies, because LED with presence sensing helps the EPC and leaves the next occupier with lower running costs.
What's included
- LED panels, linear suspended fittings or downlights to suit your ceilings
- Out-of-hours installation so desks stay usable during the working day
- Layouts that hit around 500 lux on desks with low glare on screens
- Daylight dimming along window bays

Office lighting FAQs for Dyfed
Which fire safety law applies in Dyfed?
The Regulatory Reform (Fire Safety) Order 2005 sets the duties of the person responsible for fire safety, including emergency lighting where escape routes need it.
Which towns in Dyfed do you cover?
All of Dyfed, including Llanelli, Ammanford and Aberystwyth. See the towns list on this page for local pages.
Panels or linear pendants?
Recessed 600×600 panels suit suspended grid ceilings and are the simplest swap. Linear suspended fittings suit exposed soffits and can light both the desk and the ceiling, which makes a space feel brighter.
How many lux does an office need?
BS EN 12464-1:2021 gives 500 lux maintained on the task area for writing, reading and data processing. Surrounding areas, corridors and break-out spaces can be lower. The standard also sets limits for glare and uniformity.
