External and security lighting in Ely
In short: wall packs, bulkheads and sensors for entrances, yards and perimeters. On Ely estates with homes nearby, we choose low-glare optics and aim fittings down to keep light where it is needed.

Local external and security lighting in Ely
Business units in Ely often have old SON floodlights over the yard and halogen bulkheads by the doors. LED replacements use far less power and come on instantly.
For Ely sites with CCTV, we aim external lighting to give cameras even coverage rather than glare.
Our teams travel to Ely from across Cambridgeshire. Typical nearby jobs include Downham, Soham and Lode, so we can often combine survey visits.
