Car park lighting in Manston
In short: new columns, LED lantern upgrades and controls for car parks. Older columns in Manston sometimes show corrosion at the base. We check condition before fitting new lanterns.
Local car park lighting in Manston
Many car parks around Manston 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.
New columns in Manston need ducting and foundations, so we survey ground conditions and existing cable routes before quoting.
Manston sits within Kent. We work throughout the CT12, CT11 and CT10 postcode districts and surrounding places, including Ramsgate, Saint Peters and Margate.
