Warehouse lighting in Bygrave

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

Local warehouse lighting in Bygrave

Warehouses around Bygrave 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.

In Bygrave distribution units the key is the optic. Narrow-beam fittings down each aisle put light on the rack faces where pickers need it, rather than on the top of the racking.

We cover the whole of Bygrave, including the SG7, SG6 and SG15 postcode districts, and nearby places such as Letchworth Garden City, Arlesey and Hitchin.
