Local warehouse lighting in Macduff
Loading bays in Macduff need good light at the dock edge and inside trailers. We often add dedicated dock lights alongside the high bay upgrade.
For Macduff sites with roof lights, daylight sensing can hold the high bays at a low level for much of a summer day.
We cover the whole of Macduff, including the AB44 and AB45 postcode districts, and nearby places such as Banff, Turriff and Buckie.
