Car park lighting in Driffield
New columns, LED lantern upgrades and controls for car parks. Many car parks around Driffield 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 Driffield
Older columns in Driffield sometimes show corrosion at the base. We check condition before fitting new lanterns.
Footpaths from Driffield car parks to building entrances often benefit from low-level bollards rather than more columns.
Our teams travel to Driffield from across the East Riding of Yorkshire. Typical nearby jobs include Bridlington, Beverley and Hornsea, so we can often combine survey visits.
