Warehouse lighting in Dowland
What we do in Dowland: lED high bays and aisle lighting for warehouses and distribution sites. Many Dowland sites run two or three shifts, so lighting hours are high and LED payback is quick, often inside three years.
Local warehouse lighting in Dowland
For Dowland sites with roof lights, daylight sensing can hold the high bays at a low level for much of a summer day.
Loading bays in Dowland need good light at the dock edge and inside trailers. We often add dedicated dock lights alongside the high bay upgrade.
We cover the whole of Dowland, including the EX19 postcode district, and nearby places such as Chawleigh, High Bickington and Little Torrington.
