Office lighting in Wakefield
What we do in Wakefield: glare-free LED lighting for desks, meeting rooms and receptions. For office lighting in Wakefield 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 Wakefield
Offices in Wakefield range from older suspended-ceiling floors with 600×600 fluorescent panels to newer exposed-soffit spaces where suspended linear LED looks and works better.
If your Wakefield office has window bays, daylight sensors can dim the perimeter row of fittings on bright days without anyone noticing.
We cover the whole of Wakefield, including the WF1, WF2 and WF4 postcode districts, and nearby places such as Crigglestone, Lofthouse and Ossett.
