Car park lighting in Templecombe
New columns, LED lantern upgrades and controls for car parks. Footpaths from Templecombe car parks to building entrances often benefit from low-level bollards rather than more columns.
Local car park lighting in Templecombe
Older columns in Templecombe sometimes show corrosion at the base. We check condition before fitting new lanterns.
Many car parks around Templecombe 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.
For Templecombe premises we plan works around opening hours, deliveries and shared access, which matters on mixed-use estates and high streets.

Yes. We work across Templecombe and the BA8 and BA9 postcode districts, plus nearby places such as Wincanton, Sturminster Newton and Gillingham.
Which rules apply to lighting work in Templecombe?
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.
