Warehouse lighting in Bootle
LED high bays and aisle lighting for warehouses and distribution sites. We plan lift access in Bootle around your picking routes and loading times, so the warehouse keeps moving while the work is done.
Local warehouse lighting in Bootle
In Bootle distribution units the key is the optic. Narrow-beam fittings down each aisle put light on the rack faces where pickers need it, rather than on the top of the racking.
Loading bays in Bootle need good light at the dock edge and inside trailers. We often add dedicated dock lights alongside the high bay upgrade.
Bootle sits within Cumbria. We work throughout the LA19 and CA18 postcode districts and surrounding places, including Muncaster, Millom and Broughton West.

Bootle FAQs
Which rules apply to lighting work in Bootle?
Fire safety duties come from the Regulatory Reform (Fire Safety) Order 2005. For new lighting, Approved Document L sets the energy efficiency requirements. We design and certify work to BS 7671 and, for emergency lighting, BS 5266-1.
Do you remove the old fittings in Bootle?
Yes. Old fittings are removed, and fluorescent tubes are recycled as hazardous waste through an authorised route, with paperwork for your records.
Is the price fixed?
Yes. After the survey you get a fixed price for the scope agreed. If you add to the scope later, we price the extra before doing it.
What lux level does a warehouse need?
It depends on the task. BS EN 12464-1:2021 examples include 100 lux for stores and stockrooms, 150 lux at the floor of rack storage, 200 lux for open storage and loading, and 300 lux for packing and grouping.
