Car park lighting in Milltimber
What we do in Milltimber: new columns, LED lantern upgrades and controls for car parks. Footpaths from Milltimber car parks to building entrances often benefit from low-level bollards rather than more columns.
Local car park lighting in Milltimber
Many car parks around Milltimber still use sodium lanterns on columns that are structurally fine. Swapping just the heads for LED gives whiter, more even light for much less power.
New columns in Milltimber need ducting and foundations, so we survey ground conditions and existing cable routes before quoting.
Milltimber is a smaller community with its own businesses, covered by postcode districts AB13, AB14 and AB15. We regularly work across Aberdeen and Aberdeenshire, so access, parking and out-of-hours working are planned before we arrive.
