Car park lighting in Kentra
What we do in Kentra: new columns, LED lantern upgrades and controls for car parks. Footpaths from Kentra car parks to building entrances often benefit from low-level bollards rather than more columns.
Local car park lighting in Kentra
For Kentra retail and business parks, part-night dimming keeps the car park safe while cutting overnight energy use.
Many car parks around Kentra 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.
Kentra sits within the Highlands and Islands. We work throughout the PH36 postcode district and surrounding places, including Arisaig, Isle of Eigg and Mallaig.
We cover Kentra by arrangement. Because of travel and access, visits are usually grouped with other work in the Highlands and Islands, so please allow more time for a survey and tell us about any ferry or access constraints.
