Warehouse lighting in Glencoe
In short: lED high bays and aisle lighting for warehouses and distribution sites. For Glencoe 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 Glencoe
Warehouses around Glencoe 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.
Loading bays in Glencoe need good light at the dock edge and inside trailers. We often add dedicated dock lights alongside the high bay upgrade.
Glencoe sits within the Highlands and Islands. We work throughout the PH49 postcode district and surrounding places, including Kinlochleven, Fort William and Bridge of Orchy.
We cover Glencoe 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.
