Car park lighting in Corby
What we do in Corby: new columns, LED lantern upgrades and controls for car parks. Footpaths from Corby car parks to building entrances often benefit from low-level bollards rather than more columns.
Local car park lighting in Corby
For Corby retail and business parks, part-night dimming keeps the car park safe while cutting overnight energy use.
We programme car park works in Corby around opening hours, closing bays in sections rather than the whole car park.
Corby is a major centre for offices, retail and industry, covered by postcode districts NN17 and NN18. We regularly work across Northamptonshire, so access, parking and out-of-hours working are planned before we arrive.

Corby FAQs
Which rules apply to lighting work in Corby?
Fire safety duties come from the Regulatory Reform (Fire Safety) Order 2005. For new lighting, Approved Document L sets the energy efficiency requirements. We design and certify work to BS 7671 and, for emergency lighting, BS 5266-1.
Is the price fixed?
Yes. After the survey you get a fixed price for the scope agreed. If you add to the scope later, we price the extra before doing it.
Can you work out of hours in Corby?
Yes. Evening, weekend and phased working is common for Corby offices, shops and warehouses, so the business keeps running.
Can you reuse our existing columns?
Often, yes. If the columns are structurally sound, swapping the heads for LED lanterns is much cheaper than new columns.
