Warehouse lighting in Killin
LED high bays and aisle lighting for warehouses and distribution sites. For Killin 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 Killin
Loading bays in Killin need good light at the dock edge and inside trailers. We often add dedicated dock lights alongside the high bay upgrade.
Warehouses around Killin 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.
For Killin premises we plan works around opening hours, deliveries and shared access, which matters on mixed-use estates and high streets.
