Car park lighting in Peebles
New columns, LED lantern upgrades and controls for car parks. Available across Peebles and the Scottish Borders. We programme car park works in Peebles around opening hours, closing bays in sections rather than the whole car park.
Local car park lighting in Peebles
For Peebles retail and business parks, part-night dimming keeps the car park safe while cutting overnight energy use.
Many car parks around Peebles 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.
Peebles sits within the Scottish Borders. We work throughout the EH45 postcode district and surrounding places, including Innerleithen, Walkerburn and West Linton and Dolphinton.
