Warehouse lighting in Lofthouse
In short: lED high bays and aisle lighting for warehouses and distribution sites. Loading bays in Lofthouse need good light at the dock edge and inside trailers. We often add dedicated dock lights alongside the high bay upgrade.
Local warehouse lighting in Lofthouse
In Lofthouse 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.
Many Lofthouse sites run two or three shifts, so lighting hours are high and LED payback is quick, often inside three years.
Lofthouse is a town with plenty of offices, shops and units, covered by postcode districts WF3, LS26 and LS10. We regularly work across West Yorkshire, so access, parking and out-of-hours working are planned before we arrive.
