Warehouse lighting in Kirklinton
What we do in Kirklinton: lED high bays and aisle lighting for warehouses and distribution sites. For Kirklinton 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 Kirklinton
Loading bays in Kirklinton need good light at the dock edge and inside trailers. We often add dedicated dock lights alongside the high bay upgrade.
In Kirklinton 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.
We cover the whole of Kirklinton, including the CA6 postcode district, and nearby places such as Gretna, Carlisle and Brampton.
