Warehouse lighting work in Shropshire
Warehouses around Shropshire often still run 400 W metal halide or sodium high bays that take minutes to strike up. LED comes on instantly and usually uses less than half the power.
Loading bays in Shropshire need good light at the dock edge and inside trailers. We often add dedicated dock lights alongside the high bay upgrade.
What's included
- Replacement of metal halide and sodium fittings and their control gear
- Loading bay, dock leveller and yard lighting
- Lux checks after installation against the agreed design
- Presence sensing per aisle so empty aisles dim or switch off
