In residential properties bulkheads are an excellent indoor or outdoor option should cost effective lighting be required in areas that might also need more robust materials to cope with any harsh elements.
In high-rise apartment blocks they are perfect for illuminating outdoor entrances, lobby and lift areas, corridors, staircases, storage zones and carparks. Unaffected by the intermittent, frequent switching of on and off when people walk through that area, bulkheads with microwave sensors, such as our Orbital range, are a great option for these applications.
For houses, they are also ideal for lighting up the inside of garages and sheds.
Businesses should also consider LED bulkhead lighting for their offices, providing clear, concise lighting as well as excellent energy savings. For years this traditional bulkhead has been fitted globally in commercial environments with energy consuming fluorescent lamps. With the UtiliteDrum™ range, you can now upgrade to maintenance free, high efficiency LED alternatives without worrying about changing the look of the existing installation.
In industrial environments building security is one of the key areas in which bulkheads are ideal. When combined with sensors or occupancy controls, this type of lighting can help illuminate exteriors when anything or anyone comes within a certain distance.
When machinery and cargo are moving around frequently and where accidents can happen, bulkheads are the solution likely to withstand any knocks.
