Warehouse lighting in County Down
Warehouse lighting means high-mounted LED luminaires, usually high bays or linear aisle fittings, that light racking, aisles, loading bays and picking areas. We cover County Down, including Bangor, Newtownards and Newry.
Warehouse lighting work in County Down
Aisle-by-aisle presence sensing works well in County Down warehouses where some aisles are only visited a few times an hour.
Warehouses around County Down often still run 400 W metal halide or sodium high bays that take minutes to strike up. LED comes on instantly and usually uses less than half the power.
What's included
- Loading bay, dock leveller and yard lighting
- Presence sensing per aisle so empty aisles dim or switch off
- Lift and scaffold access planned around your operation
- LED high bays or narrow-beam aisle fittings matched to racking heights

Rules that apply in County Down
Technical Booklet F2 (June 2022) and its non-domestic guidance set Northern Ireland's own lighting efficacy figures, which differ from England's, so we design to the NI figures.
Northern Ireland followed the EU timetable, with ordinary T5 and T8 fluorescent tubes phased out from August 2023.
