Car park lighting in Leven
What we do in Leven: new columns, LED lantern upgrades and controls for car parks. Many car parks around Leven 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 Leven
Older columns in Leven sometimes show corrosion at the base. We check condition before fitting new lanterns.
New columns in Leven need ducting and foundations, so we survey ground conditions and existing cable routes before quoting.
Our teams travel to Leven from across Fife. Typical nearby jobs include Methil, Kilconquhar and Glenrothes, so we can often combine survey visits.
