Office lighting in Penicuik
Glare-free LED lighting for desks, meeting rooms and receptions. Available across Penicuik and Edinburgh and the Lothians. For office lighting in Penicuik 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 Penicuik
Reception areas in Penicuik often need a warmer, layered look than the open-plan floor, with downlights or a feature pendant over the desk.
If your Penicuik office has window bays, daylight sensors can dim the perimeter row of fittings on bright days without anyone noticing.
Our teams travel to Penicuik from across Edinburgh and the Lothians. Typical nearby jobs include Roslin, Rosewell and Loanhead, so we can often combine survey visits.

Rules that apply in Penicuik
Standard 6.5 of the Scottish building standards covers efficient, controllable lighting. The non-domestic guidance uses 95 luminaire lumens per circuit-watt for general lighting, or LENI.
In Great Britain, including Scotland, common T8 fluorescent tubes were caught by ecodesign rules from 1 September 2023 and the mercury exemptions for ordinary T5 and T8 lamps ended on 1 February 2024.
Scotland does not use the England and Wales EPC E letting rule. Instead, some non-domestic buildings over 1,000 m² need an action plan when sold or let, under Section 63 regulations.
Penicuik FAQs
Do you cover all of Penicuik?
Yes. We work across Penicuik and the EH26, EH25 and EH24 postcode districts, plus nearby places such as Roslin, Rosewell and Loanhead.
Is the price fixed?
Yes. After the survey you get a fixed price for the scope agreed. If you add to the scope later, we price the extra before doing it.
Do you remove the old fittings in Penicuik?
Yes. Old fittings are removed, and fluorescent tubes are recycled as hazardous waste through an authorised route, with paperwork for your records.
Do we need sensors in an office?
They are worth it in meeting rooms, toilets, kitchens and stores, where lights are often left on. Daylight dimming along windows also saves energy in perimeter zones.
