What we do in Kilby: lED high bays and aisle lighting for warehouses and distribution sites. For Kilby 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 Kilby
Aisle-by-aisle presence sensing works well in Kilby warehouses where some aisles are only visited a few times an hour.
Loading bays in Kilby need good light at the dock edge and inside trailers. We often add dedicated dock lights alongside the high bay upgrade.
Kilby sits within Leicestershire. We work throughout the LE8, LE18 and LE2 postcode districts and surrounding places, including Wigston Magna, Evington and Oadby.
