Office lighting in Selkirk

Glare-free LED lighting for desks, meeting rooms and receptions. Available across Selkirk and the Scottish Borders. Meeting rooms are where Selkirk 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.

Local office lighting in Selkirk

Reception areas in Selkirk often need a warmer, layered look than the open-plan floor, with downlights or a feature pendant over the desk.

Offices in Selkirk range from older suspended-ceiling floors with 600×600 fluorescent panels to newer exposed-soffit spaces where suspended linear LED looks and works better.

We cover the whole of Selkirk, including the TD7 postcode district, and nearby places such as Galashiels, Newtown St Boswells and Walkerburn.

Rules that apply in Selkirk

Standard 6.5 of the Scottish building standards covers efficient, controllable lighting. The non-domestic guidance uses 95 luminaire lumens per circuit-watt for general lighting, or LENI.

In Great Britain, including Scotland, 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.

Scotland does not use the England and Wales EPC E letting rule. Instead, some non-domestic buildings over 1,000 m² need an action plan when sold or let, under Section 63 regulations.

Selkirk FAQs

Can you work out of hours in Selkirk?

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

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 cover all of Selkirk?

Yes. We work across Selkirk and the TD7 postcode district, plus nearby places such as Galashiels, Newtown St Boswells and Walkerburn.

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.
