Car park lighting in Inverness
In short: new columns, LED lantern upgrades and controls for car parks. We programme car park works in Inverness around opening hours, closing bays in sections rather than the whole car park.
Local car park lighting in Inverness
New columns in Inverness need ducting and foundations, so we survey ground conditions and existing cable routes before quoting.
Many car parks around Inverness 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 cover the whole of Inverness, including the IV1, IV3 and IV2 postcode districts, and nearby places such as Avoch, Muir of Ord and Dingwall.
