Car park lighting in Penkridge
In short: new columns, LED lantern upgrades and controls for car parks. We programme car park works in Penkridge around opening hours, closing bays in sections rather than the whole car park.

Local car park lighting in Penkridge
Many car parks around Penkridge 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.
Older columns in Penkridge sometimes show corrosion at the base. We check condition before fitting new lanterns.
Our teams travel to Penkridge from across Staffordshire. Typical nearby jobs include Cannock, Bilbrook and Stafford, so we can often combine survey visits.
