Office lighting in Alford
Glare-free LED lighting for desks, meeting rooms and receptions. For office lighting in Alford 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 Alford
Meeting rooms are where Alford 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.
If your Alford office has window bays, daylight sensors can dim the perimeter row of fittings on bright days without anyone noticing.
We cover the whole of Alford, including the LN13 postcode district, and nearby places such as Mablethorpe, Spilsby and Burgh Le Marsh.
