Car park lighting in Cowes
New columns, LED lantern upgrades and controls for car parks. Available across Cowes and the Isle of Wight. Older columns in Cowes sometimes show corrosion at the base. We check condition before fitting new lanterns.
Local car park lighting in Cowes
Many car parks around Cowes 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.
Footpaths from Cowes car parks to building entrances often benefit from low-level bollards rather than more columns.
Cowes sits within the Isle of Wight. We work throughout the PO31 and PO32 postcode districts and surrounding places, including Newport, Ryde and Locks Heath.
