Glare-free LED lighting for desks, meeting rooms and receptions. Available across Grantham and Lincolnshire. We usually phase office work in Grantham over evenings, one zone at a time, so nobody loses a desk while the ceiling is opened up.
Local office lighting in Grantham
Many Grantham office landlords upgrade lighting between tenancies, because LED with presence sensing helps the EPC and leaves the next occupier with lower running costs.
For office lighting in Grantham 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.
For Grantham premises we plan works around opening hours, deliveries and shared access, which matters on mixed-use estates and high streets.

Grantham FAQs

Yes. We work across Grantham and the NG31 and NG32 postcode districts, plus nearby places such as Great Gonerby, Burton Coggles and Sleaford.
Can you work out of hours in Grantham?
Yes. Evening, weekend and phased working is common for Grantham offices, shops and warehouses, so the business keeps running.
Do we need sensors in an office?
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.
