Car park lighting in Lanark
New columns, LED lantern upgrades and controls for car parks. For Lanark retail and business parks, part-night dimming keeps the car park safe while cutting overnight energy use.
Local car park lighting in Lanark
Footpaths from Lanark car parks to building entrances often benefit from low-level bollards rather than more columns.
New columns in Lanark need ducting and foundations, so we survey ground conditions and existing cable routes before quoting.
We cover the whole of Lanark, including the ML11 postcode district, and nearby places such as Carluke, Wishaw and Larkhall.
