Car park lighting in Hampshire
Car park lighting is the lighting of parking areas, access roads and footpaths, usually with LED lanterns on columns or wall-mounted floodlights. We cover Hampshire, including Southampton, Portsmouth and Basingstoke.

Car park lighting FAQs for Hampshire
Which fire safety law applies in Hampshire?
The Regulatory Reform (Fire Safety) Order 2005 sets the duties of the person responsible for fire safety, including emergency lighting where escape routes need it.
How are prices set in Hampshire?
Our guide prices are adjusted for regional labour costs. After a survey you get a fixed price for the agreed scope.
Can you reuse our existing columns?
Often, yes. If the columns are structurally sound, swapping the heads for LED lanterns is much cheaper than new columns.
What do new lighting columns cost?
As a budget, a 6 m column with an LED lantern, foundation and a moderate cable run is around £800–£1,500 each, excluding VAT. Difficult ground, reinstatement or a new supply can increase this.
