What we do in Alva: lED high bays and aisle lighting for warehouses and distribution sites. Warehouses around Alva 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.
Local warehouse lighting in Alva
For Alva sites with roof lights, daylight sensing can hold the high bays at a low level for much of a summer day.
Loading bays in Alva need good light at the dock edge and inside trailers. We often add dedicated dock lights alongside the high bay upgrade.
Alva is a local centre, covered by postcode districts FK12, FK11 and FK13. We regularly work across Falkirk, Stirling and Clackmannanshire, so access, parking and out-of-hours working are planned before we arrive.
