Local warehouse lighting in Alexandria
Aisle-by-aisle presence sensing works well in Alexandria warehouses where some aisles are only visited a few times an hour.
Many Alexandria sites run two or three shifts, so lighting hours are high and LED payback is quick, often inside three years.
We cover the whole of Alexandria, including the G82 and G83 postcode districts, and nearby places such as Dumbarton, Port Glasgow and Bishopton.

Fire safety duties come from the Fire (Scotland) Act 2005 and the Fire Safety (Scotland) Regulations 2006. For new lighting, Section 6 of the Scottish building standards sets the energy efficiency requirements. We design and certify work to BS 7671 and, for emergency lighting, BS 5266-1.
