Car park lighting in Malpas
New columns, LED lantern upgrades and controls for car parks. Many car parks around Malpas 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.
Local car park lighting in Malpas
Footpaths from Malpas car parks to building entrances often benefit from low-level bollards rather than more columns.

Malpas FAQs
Which rules apply to lighting work in Malpas?
Fire safety duties come from the Regulatory Reform (Fire Safety) Order 2005. For new lighting, Approved Document L sets the energy efficiency requirements. We design and certify work to BS 7671 and, for emergency lighting, BS 5266-1.
Do you remove the old fittings in Malpas?
Yes. Old fittings are removed, and fluorescent tubes are recycled as hazardous waste through an authorised route, with paperwork for your records.
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 car park lighting be dimmed overnight?
Yes. LED lanterns can be dimmed or switched to a lower level in the small hours, often with presence override.
