Car park lighting in Thorne
In short: new columns, LED lantern upgrades and controls for car parks. New columns in Thorne need ducting and foundations, so we survey ground conditions and existing cable routes before quoting.

Local car park lighting in Thorne
We programme car park works in Thorne around opening hours, closing bays in sections rather than the whole car park.
Older columns in Thorne sometimes show corrosion at the base. We check condition before fitting new lanterns.
Our teams travel to Thorne from across South Yorkshire. Typical nearby jobs include Hatfield, Edenthorpe and Airmyn, so we can often combine survey visits.

Thorne FAQs
How quickly can you survey in Thorne?
Most surveys in Thorne can be booked within a few working days. Tell us about any deadlines, such as a lease end or a fire risk assessment action, and we will try to fit around them.
Which rules apply to lighting work in Thorne?
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 reuse our existing columns?
Often, yes. If the columns are structurally sound, swapping the heads for LED lanterns is much cheaper than new columns.
