Warehouse lighting in Hartley

From offices to warehouses, we handle warehouse lighting for Hartley businesses. Every job starts with a survey and ends with testing, certification and a clear fitting schedule.

Warehouse lighting in Hartley

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

Local warehouse lighting in Hartley

Many Hartley sites run two or three shifts, so lighting hours are high and LED payback is quick, often inside three years.

For Hartley sites with roof lights, daylight sensing can hold the high bays at a low level for much of a summer day.

Hartley sits within Kent. We work throughout the DA3, DA13 and DA4 postcode districts and surrounding places, including Longfield, Meopham Station and Horton Kirby.
