Car park lighting in Newry
New columns, LED lantern upgrades and controls for car parks. Many car parks around Newry 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 Newry
Footpaths from Newry car parks to building entrances often benefit from low-level bollards rather than more columns.
For Newry retail and business parks, part-night dimming keeps the car park safe while cutting overnight energy use.
Newry sits within County Down. We work throughout the BT35 postcode district and surrounding places, including Warrenpoint, Banbridge and Kilkeel.
