Warehouse lighting work in Lincolnshire
In Lincolnshire 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.
For Lincolnshire sites with roof lights, daylight sensing can hold the high bays at a low level for much of a summer day.
What's included
- LED high bays or narrow-beam aisle fittings matched to racking heights
- Lux checks after installation against the agreed design
- Replacement of metal halide and sodium fittings and their control gear
- Presence sensing per aisle so empty aisles dim or switch off
