Warehouse lighting in Chinnor
LED high bays and aisle lighting for warehouses and distribution sites. For Chinnor 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 Chinnor
Loading bays in Chinnor need good light at the dock edge and inside trailers. We often add dedicated dock lights alongside the high bay upgrade.
Aisle-by-aisle presence sensing works well in Chinnor warehouses where some aisles are only visited a few times an hour.
Chinnor sits within Oxfordshire. We work throughout the OX39, HP27 and OX9 postcode districts and surrounding places, including Princes Risborough, Thame and Bledlow-cum-Saunderton.
