Car park lighting in Dumbarton
New columns, LED lantern upgrades and controls for car parks. Available across Dumbarton and Glasgow and Dunbartonshire. We programme car park works in Dumbarton around opening hours, closing bays in sections rather than the whole car park.

Local car park lighting in Dumbarton
Many car parks around Dumbarton 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.
For Dumbarton retail and business parks, part-night dimming keeps the car park safe while cutting overnight energy use.
Dumbarton sits within Glasgow and Dunbartonshire. We work throughout the G82, PA7 and PA14 postcode districts and surrounding places, including Alexandria, Bishopton and Kilmacolm.
