Car park lighting in Lowestoft
In short: new columns, LED lantern upgrades and controls for car parks. We programme car park works in Lowestoft around opening hours, closing bays in sections rather than the whole car park.
Local car park lighting in Lowestoft
New columns in Lowestoft need ducting and foundations, so we survey ground conditions and existing cable routes before quoting.
Many car parks around Lowestoft 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.
Our teams travel to Lowestoft from across Suffolk. Typical nearby jobs include Weston, Great Yarmouth and Southwold, so we can often combine survey visits.
