Warehouse lighting in Carlton
LED high bays and aisle lighting for warehouses and distribution sites. Loading bays in Carlton 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 Carlton
Many Carlton sites run two or three shifts, so lighting hours are high and LED payback is quick, often inside three years.
For Carlton sites with roof lights, daylight sensing can hold the high bays at a low level for much of a summer day.
Carlton sits within Nottinghamshire. We work throughout the NG4, NG3 and NG1 postcode districts and surrounding places, including Arnold, Nottingham and West Bridgford.
