Warehouse lighting in Merriott
LED high bays and aisle lighting for warehouses and distribution sites. We plan lift access in Merriott around your picking routes and loading times, so the warehouse keeps moving while the work is done.
Local warehouse lighting in Merriott
In Merriott 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.
Aisle-by-aisle presence sensing works well in Merriott warehouses where some aisles are only visited a few times an hour.
For Merriott premises we plan works around opening hours, deliveries and shared access, which matters on mixed-use estates and high streets.

Merriott FAQs

Do you remove the old fittings in Merriott?
Yes. Old fittings are removed, and fluorescent tubes are recycled as hazardous waste through an authorised route, with paperwork for your records.
How quickly can you survey in Merriott?
Most surveys in Merriott can be booked within a few working days. Tell us about any deadlines, such as a lease end or a fire risk assessment action, and we will try to fit around them.
What lux level does a warehouse need?
It depends on the task. BS EN 12464-1:2021 examples include 100 lux for stores and stockrooms, 150 lux at the floor of rack storage, 200 lux for open storage and loading, and 300 lux for packing and grouping.
