Car park lighting in Farnborough
What we do in Farnborough: new columns, LED lantern upgrades and controls for car parks. Footpaths from Farnborough car parks to building entrances often benefit from low-level bollards rather than more columns.
Local car park lighting in Farnborough
Many car parks around Farnborough 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.
We programme car park works in Farnborough around opening hours, closing bays in sections rather than the whole car park.
For Farnborough premises we plan works around opening hours, deliveries and shared access, which matters on mixed-use estates and high streets.

Farnborough FAQs

How quickly can you survey in Farnborough?
Most surveys in Farnborough can be booked within a few working days. Tell us about any deadlines, such as a lease end or a fire risk assessment action, and we will try to fit around them.
Which rules apply to lighting work in Farnborough?
Fire safety duties come from the Regulatory Reform (Fire Safety) Order 2005. For new lighting, Approved Document L sets the energy efficiency requirements. We design and certify work to BS 7671 and, for emergency lighting, BS 5266-1.
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.
