Warehouse lighting work in Staffordshire
We plan lift access in Staffordshire around your picking routes and loading times, so the warehouse keeps moving while the work is done.
Many Staffordshire sites run two or three shifts, so lighting hours are high and LED payback is quick, often inside three years.
What's included
- LED high bays or narrow-beam aisle fittings matched to racking heights
- Replacement of metal halide and sodium fittings and their control gear
- Presence sensing per aisle so empty aisles dim or switch off
- Lux checks after installation against the agreed design
