Warehouse lighting in Gloucestershire
Warehouse lighting means high-mounted LED luminaires, usually high bays or linear aisle fittings, that light racking, aisles, loading bays and picking areas. We cover Gloucestershire, including Gloucester, Cheltenham and Stroud.

Warehouse lighting work in Gloucestershire
Aisle-by-aisle presence sensing works well in Gloucestershire warehouses where some aisles are only visited a few times an hour.
Many Gloucestershire sites run two or three shifts, so lighting hours are high and LED payback is quick, often inside three years.
What's included
- Lux checks after installation against the agreed design
- Presence sensing per aisle so empty aisles dim or switch off
- Lift and scaffold access planned around your operation
- LED high bays or narrow-beam aisle fittings matched to racking heights
