Car park lighting in Sandridge
What we do in Sandridge: new columns, LED lantern upgrades and controls for car parks. Many car parks around Sandridge 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.
Local car park lighting in Sandridge
Older columns in Sandridge sometimes show corrosion at the base. We check condition before fitting new lanterns.
Footpaths from Sandridge car parks to building entrances often benefit from low-level bollards rather than more columns.
We cover the whole of Sandridge, including the AL4, AL1 and AL10 postcode districts, and nearby places such as St Albans, Hatfield and Redbourn.
