Warehouse lighting in Plymstock

From offices to warehouses, we handle warehouse lighting for Plymstock businesses. Every job starts with a survey and ends with testing, certification and a clear fitting schedule.

Warehouse lighting in Plymstock

LED high bays and aisle lighting for warehouses and distribution sites. Aisle-by-aisle presence sensing works well in Plymstock warehouses where some aisles are only visited a few times an hour.

Local warehouse lighting in Plymstock

Many Plymstock sites run two or three shifts, so lighting hours are high and LED payback is quick, often inside three years.

For Plymstock sites with roof lights, daylight sensing can hold the high bays at a low level for much of a summer day.

Our teams travel to Plymstock from across Devon. Typical nearby jobs include Plymouth, Plympton and Yealmpton, so we can often combine survey visits.
