Warehouse lighting in Leverburgh
In short: lED high bays and aisle lighting for warehouses and distribution sites. For Leverburgh 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 Leverburgh
Many Leverburgh sites run two or three shifts, so lighting hours are high and LED payback is quick, often inside three years.
Aisle-by-aisle presence sensing works well in Leverburgh warehouses where some aisles are only visited a few times an hour.
Leverburgh is a local centre, covered by postcode district HS5. We regularly work across the Highlands and Islands, so access, parking and out-of-hours working are planned before we arrive.
We cover Leverburgh 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.
