Office lighting in West Ham
Glare-free LED lighting for desks, meeting rooms and receptions. Available across West Ham and Greater London. Many West Ham office landlords upgrade lighting between tenancies, because LED with presence sensing helps the EPC and leaves the next occupier with lower running costs.
Local office lighting in West Ham
If your West Ham office has window bays, daylight sensors can dim the perimeter row of fittings on bright days without anyone noticing.
Meeting rooms are where West Ham 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.
We cover the whole of West Ham, including the E13, E15 and E7 postcode districts, and nearby places such as Stratford, Canning Town and Bow.

Rules that apply in West Ham
Approved Document L (2021 edition, with 2023 amendments) asks for new general lighting to average at least 95 luminaire lumens per circuit-watt, or to use the LENI method. The 2026 edition raises this to more than 105 for work under it from 24 March 2027.
In Great Britain, 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.
Privately rented commercial property in England generally needs an EPC of E or better, or a registered exemption, and lighting is one of the cheaper ways to improve a rating.

Yes. Evening, weekend and phased working is common for West Ham offices, shops and warehouses, so the business keeps running.

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.
