Car park lighting in Chelsea
New columns, LED lantern upgrades and controls for car parks. Available across Chelsea and Greater London. We programme car park works in Chelsea around opening hours, closing bays in sections rather than the whole car park.
Local car park lighting in Chelsea
Footpaths from Chelsea car parks to building entrances often benefit from low-level bollards rather than more columns.
Many car parks around Chelsea 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.
Chelsea sits within Greater London. We work throughout the SW3, SW10 and SW7 postcode districts and surrounding places, including Battersea, Queenstown and Latchmere.
