Smart Lighting Controls for Commercial Properties
Upgrading the lighting across your commercial property does not have to mean significant structural work or prolonged downtime.

Our experienced team manages the entire process, from initial audit and specification through to installation and compliance, ensuring minimal disruption to your building and its occupants.
Understanding the Retrofit Process for Commercial Properties
One of the most common misconceptions about commercial lighting upgrades is that they require extensive structural changes or a full rewire. In reality, retrofitting allows businesses to replace outdated components within their existing fittings and layouts, preserving the infrastructure that is already in place and avoiding the time and expense associated with more disruptive approaches. For facilities managers overseeing properties in Burnley, Lancashire, the retrofit model is particularly attractive because it reduces project timescales, limits waste, and keeps costs manageable. Nationwide FM brings over four decades of experience to every retrofit project, applying that expertise to deliver lighting upgrades that are completed on time, on budget, and with minimum disruption.


Cutting Energy Costs and Improving the Working Environment
Retrofit lighting is consistently recognised as one of the fastest and most straightforward ways for commercial businesses to slash their energy bills without undertaking significant capital works. By replacing inefficient light sources and gear with modern alternatives within the same fittings, businesses can achieve substantial reductions in electricity consumption, often with payback periods that make the investment straightforward to justify on financial grounds alone. Improved lighting quality also plays an important role in the wellbeing and performance of staff, with better uniformity, reduced flicker, and appropriate colour temperatures all making a tangible difference to the working environment. 24 Nationwide has helped numerous businesses across Burnley, Lancashire achieve meaningful energy savings through carefully planned retrofit programmes, and our team is on hand to help you understand the potential impact for your property.
Presence Sensors, Daylight Harvesting, and Intelligent Control Systems
Smart lighting controls are an essential component of any modern commercial lighting upgrade, and Nationwide Services routinely incorporates them into retrofit programmes delivered across Burnley, Lancashire and the wider region. Presence and motion sensors ensure that lighting in unoccupied spaces is automatically extinguished, removing one of the most persistent sources of wasted energy in commercial buildings. Daylight sensors work alongside artificial lighting to maintain consistent illumination levels throughout the day, dimming or brightening the artificial contribution in response to the amount of natural light available. Together, these technologies can contribute meaningfully to overall energy reduction targets and support businesses in demonstrating their commitment to sustainability. Our control systems are scalable, straightforward to manage, and can be configured to suit the specific occupancy patterns and operational requirements of your building.


When Existing Fittings Need Replacing: High-Bay and Low-Bay Luminaires
Not every lighting upgrade can be achieved through retrofitting alone. Where existing fittings are worn, damaged, or no longer capable of supporting modern lighting technology, replacing them with high-efficiency luminaires is the logical next step. These products are engineered to deliver the maximum possible lumen output per watt, combining advanced optics with robust construction to provide reliable, high-quality illumination across a range of commercial and industrial applications. In large-scale industrial environments, high-bay luminaires are the solution of choice for spaces with elevated ceilings, providing even light distribution across wide floor areas in warehouses, production facilities, and logistics centres, while low-bay equivalents serve lower-ceiling industrial and commercial spaces equally well. 24 Nationwide provides full specification, supply, and installation of high-efficiency luminaires to clients across Burnley, Lancashire, ensuring that every product is correctly selected and installed for the environment in which it will operate.
