Car park lighting in Thamesmead
In short: new columns, LED lantern upgrades and controls for car parks. We programme car park works in Thamesmead around opening hours, closing bays in sections rather than the whole car park.
Local car park lighting in Thamesmead
For Thamesmead retail and business parks, part-night dimming keeps the car park safe while cutting overnight energy use.
Many car parks around Thamesmead 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.
Our teams travel to Thamesmead from across Greater London. Typical nearby jobs include Abbey Wood, Plumstead and Crayford, so we can often combine survey visits.
