Retail and shop lighting work in Gwynedd
Window lighting matters on Gwynedd high streets after dark. A timeclock can keep the window lit into the evening without leaving the whole shop on.

What's included
- Emergency lighting and exit signs for escape routes
- Track and spot lighting to accent displays and window stands
