Warehouse lighting in Kensington
LED high bays and aisle lighting for warehouses and distribution sites. Loading bays in Kensington need good light at the dock edge and inside trailers. We often add dedicated dock lights alongside the high bay upgrade.
Local warehouse lighting in Kensington
We plan lift access in Kensington around your picking routes and loading times, so the warehouse keeps moving while the work is done.
In Kensington 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.
We cover the whole of Kensington, including the L7, L70 and L6 postcode districts, and nearby places such as Liverpool, Old Swan and Kirkdale.
