Car park lighting in Peterlee
New columns, LED lantern upgrades and controls for car parks. Available across Peterlee and County Durham. We programme car park works in Peterlee around opening hours, closing bays in sections rather than the whole car park.

Local car park lighting in Peterlee
Footpaths from Peterlee car parks to building entrances often benefit from low-level bollards rather than more columns.
Many car parks around Peterlee 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.
We cover the whole of Peterlee, including the SR8, TS28 and TS27 postcode districts, and nearby places such as Hutton Henry, Monk Hesleden and Trimdon.
