Car park lighting in Altrincham
In short: new columns, LED lantern upgrades and controls for car parks. We programme car park works in Altrincham around opening hours, closing bays in sections rather than the whole car park.
Local car park lighting in Altrincham
New columns in Altrincham need ducting and foundations, so we survey ground conditions and existing cable routes before quoting.
Many car parks around Altrincham 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.
Altrincham sits within Greater Manchester. We work throughout the WA14, WA15 and M33 postcode districts and surrounding places, including Sale, Ringway and Partington.
