Office lighting in Yate
Glare-free LED lighting for desks, meeting rooms and receptions. Reception areas in Yate often need a warmer, layered look than the open-plan floor, with downlights or a feature pendant over the desk.
Local office lighting in Yate
Meeting rooms are where Yate offices waste most light. Presence detectors that switch off after a set time pay back quickly in rooms that sit empty for half the day.
Offices in Yate range from older suspended-ceiling floors with 600×600 fluorescent panels to newer exposed-soffit spaces where suspended linear LED looks and works better.
Yate sits within Gloucestershire. We work throughout the BS37 and BS36 postcode districts and surrounding places, including Frampton Cotterell, Mangotsfield and Hawkesbury.
