Warehouse lighting in Dingwall
What we do in Dingwall: lED high bays and aisle lighting for warehouses and distribution sites. In Dingwall 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.
Local warehouse lighting in Dingwall
Loading bays in Dingwall need good light at the dock edge and inside trailers. We often add dedicated dock lights alongside the high bay upgrade.
Many Dingwall 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 Dingwall, including the IV15 and IV7 postcode districts, and nearby places such as Strathpeffer, Muir of Ord and Evanton.
We cover Dingwall by arrangement. Because of travel and access, visits are usually grouped with other work in the Highlands and Islands, so please allow more time for a survey and tell us about any ferry or access constraints.
