Office lighting in Carluke
Glare-free LED lighting for desks, meeting rooms and receptions. We usually phase office work in Carluke over evenings, one zone at a time, so nobody loses a desk while the ceiling is opened up.
Local office lighting in Carluke
Meeting rooms are where Carluke 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.
Many Carluke office landlords upgrade lighting between tenancies, because LED with presence sensing helps the EPC and leaves the next occupier with lower running costs.
Carluke is a smaller town, covered by postcode districts ML8 and ML2. We regularly work across Lanarkshire, so access, parking and out-of-hours working are planned before we arrive.
