Warehouse lighting in Warwickshire
Warehouse lighting means high-mounted LED luminaires, usually high bays or linear aisle fittings, that light racking, aisles, loading bays and picking areas. We cover Warwickshire, including Nuneaton, Rugby and Leamington Spa.
Warehouse lighting work in Warwickshire
Many Warwickshire sites run two or three shifts, so lighting hours are high and LED payback is quick, often inside three years.
In Warwickshire 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.
What's included
- Loading bay, dock leveller and yard lighting
- Lux checks after installation against the agreed design
- Replacement of metal halide and sodium fittings and their control gear
- Presence sensing per aisle so empty aisles dim or switch off
