Office lighting in Wimbledon
Glare-free LED lighting for desks, meeting rooms and receptions. We usually phase office work in Wimbledon over evenings, one zone at a time, so nobody loses a desk while the ceiling is opened up.
Local office lighting in Wimbledon
Reception areas in Wimbledon often need a warmer, layered look than the open-plan floor, with downlights or a feature pendant over the desk.
Offices in Wimbledon range from older suspended-ceiling floors with 600×600 fluorescent panels to newer exposed-soffit spaces where suspended linear LED looks and works better.
Wimbledon is a major centre for offices, retail and industry, covered by postcode districts SW19, SW20 and SW17. We regularly work across Greater London, so access, parking and out-of-hours working are planned before we arrive.

Wimbledon FAQs
Which rules apply to lighting work in Wimbledon?
Fire safety duties come from the Regulatory Reform (Fire Safety) Order 2005. For new lighting, Approved Document L sets the energy efficiency requirements. We design and certify work to BS 7671 and, for emergency lighting, BS 5266-1.
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 Wimbledon?
Yes. Old fittings are removed, and fluorescent tubes are recycled as hazardous waste through an authorised route, with paperwork for your records.
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.
