Local external and security lighting in Ballyclare
Business units in Ballyclare often have old SON floodlights over the yard and halogen bulkheads by the doors. LED replacements use far less power and come on instantly.
On Ballyclare estates with homes nearby, we choose low-glare optics and aim fittings down to keep light where it is needed.
We cover the whole of Ballyclare, including the BT39 postcode district, and nearby places such as Newtownabbey, Carrickfergus and Antrim.

Ballyclare FAQs
Which rules apply to lighting work in Ballyclare?
Fire safety duties come from the Fire and Rescue Services (Northern Ireland) Order 2006 and the Fire Safety Regulations (Northern Ireland) 2010. For new lighting, Technical Booklet F2 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.
How quickly can you survey in Ballyclare?
Most surveys in Ballyclare 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.
Should external lights be on all night?
Not necessarily. Photocells with timers or presence sensors can keep routes lit when people are around and dim or switch off later, saving energy and reducing light spill.
