Car park lighting in Queensferry
New columns, LED lantern upgrades and controls for car parks. Available across Queensferry and Edinburgh and the Lothians. New columns in Queensferry need ducting and foundations, so we survey ground conditions and existing cable routes before quoting.
Local car park lighting in Queensferry
Older columns in Queensferry sometimes show corrosion at the base. We check condition before fitting new lanterns.
Footpaths from Queensferry car parks to building entrances often benefit from low-level bollards rather than more columns.
For Queensferry premises we plan works around opening hours, deliveries and shared access, which matters on mixed-use estates and high streets.

Queensferry FAQs
How quickly can you survey in Queensferry?
Most surveys in Queensferry can be booked within a few working days. Tell us about any deadlines, such as a lease end or a fire risk assessment action, and we will try to fit around them.
Which rules apply to lighting work in Queensferry?
Fire safety duties come from the Fire (Scotland) Act 2005 and the Fire Safety (Scotland) Regulations 2006. For new lighting, Section 6 of the Scottish building standards sets the energy efficiency requirements. We design and certify work to BS 7671 and, for emergency lighting, BS 5266-1.
Do you cover all of Queensferry?
Yes. We work across Queensferry and the EH30, EH29 and EH28 postcode districts, plus nearby places such as Kirkliston, Inverkeithing and Newbridge and Ratho.
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.
