Warehouse lighting in Steeton
LED high bays and aisle lighting for warehouses and distribution sites. We plan lift access in Steeton around your picking routes and loading times, so the warehouse keeps moving while the work is done.
Local warehouse lighting in Steeton
In Steeton 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.
Warehouses around Steeton 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.
Our teams travel to Steeton from across West Yorkshire. Typical nearby jobs include Keighley, Bingley and Ilkley, so we can often combine survey visits.
