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

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