Car park lighting in Rushden
New columns, LED lantern upgrades and controls for car parks. Available across Rushden and Northamptonshire. We programme car park works in Rushden around opening hours, closing bays in sections rather than the whole car park.
Local car park lighting in Rushden
Many car parks around Rushden 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 Rushden car parks to building entrances often benefit from low-level bollards rather than more columns.
Our teams travel to Rushden from across Northamptonshire. Typical nearby jobs include Irthlingborough, Wollaston and Wellingborough, so we can often combine survey visits.
