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

Milnthorpe FAQs
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 work out of hours in Milnthorpe?
Yes. Evening, weekend and phased working is common for Milnthorpe offices, shops and warehouses, so the business keeps running.
Which rules apply to lighting work in Milnthorpe?
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.
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.
