Warehouse lighting in Bowthorpe

Local warehouse lighting in Bowthorpe

Loading bays in Bowthorpe need good light at the dock edge and inside trailers. We often add dedicated dock lights alongside the high bay upgrade.

In Bowthorpe 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.

Our teams travel to Bowthorpe from across Norfolk. Typical nearby jobs include Taverham, Norwich and Marlingford, so we can often combine survey visits.
