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

Local car park lighting in St Ives
New columns in St Ives need ducting and foundations, so we survey ground conditions and existing cable routes before quoting.
Many car parks around St Ives 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.
St Ives sits within Cornwall. We work throughout the TR26 and TR27 postcode districts and surrounding places, including Hayle, Marazion and Penzance.
