Car park lighting in Thorn
What we do in Thorn: new columns, LED lantern upgrades and controls for car parks. Footpaths from Thorn car parks to building entrances often benefit from low-level bollards rather than more columns.

Local car park lighting in Thorn
We programme car park works in Thorn around opening hours, closing bays in sections rather than the whole car park.
For Thorn retail and business parks, part-night dimming keeps the car park safe while cutting overnight energy use.
We cover the whole of Thorn, including the LU5, LU4 and LU6 postcode districts, and nearby places such as Dunstable, Luton and Leighton Buzzard.

Thorn FAQs
Who does the work in Thorn?
Work is carried out by vetted electricians working under S&K Property Investments and Improvement Ltd, which is responsible for the job and invoices you directly.
How quickly can you survey in Thorn?
Most surveys in Thorn can be booked within a few working days. Tell us about any deadlines, such as a lease end or a fire risk assessment action, and we will try to fit around them.
Is the price fixed?
Yes. After the survey you get a fixed price for the scope agreed. If you add to the scope later, we price the extra before doing it.
Can you reuse our existing columns?
Often, yes. If the columns are structurally sound, swapping the heads for LED lanterns is much cheaper than new columns.
