Local warehouse lighting in Doncaster
For Doncaster sites with roof lights, daylight sensing can hold the high bays at a low level for much of a summer day.
Warehouses around Doncaster 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.
We cover the whole of Doncaster, including the DN1, DN4 and DN2 postcode districts, and nearby places such as Bentley, Edenthorpe and Adwick le Street.
