LED high bays and aisle lighting for warehouses and distribution sites. Available across Port Charlotte and Argyll and Bute. For Port Charlotte sites with roof lights, daylight sensing can hold the high bays at a low level for much of a summer day.
Local warehouse lighting in Port Charlotte
We plan lift access in Port Charlotte around your picking routes and loading times, so the warehouse keeps moving while the work is done.
Many Port Charlotte sites run two or three shifts, so lighting hours are high and LED payback is quick, often inside three years.
Our teams travel to Port Charlotte from across Argyll and Bute. Typical nearby jobs include Bowmore, Portnahaven and Ballygrant, so we can often combine survey visits.
We cover Port Charlotte by arrangement. Because of travel and access, visits are usually grouped with other work in Argyll and Bute, so please allow more time for a survey and tell us about any ferry or access constraints.
