External and security lighting in Newcastle
Wall packs, bulkheads and sensors for entrances, yards and perimeters. Available across Newcastle and County Down. For Newcastle sites with CCTV, we aim external lighting to give cameras even coverage rather than glare.

Many Newcastle businesses combine external lighting with car park and yard upgrades in a single visit.
Fire exit doors in Newcastle buildings need a light outside so people can see the way to a place of safety.
Newcastle is a smaller community with its own businesses, covered by postcode district BT33. We regularly work across County Down, so access, parking and out-of-hours working are planned before we arrive.

Newcastle FAQs
Do you remove the old fittings in Newcastle?
Yes. Old fittings are removed, and fluorescent tubes are recycled as hazardous waste through an authorised route, with paperwork for your records.
Which rules apply to lighting work in Newcastle?
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.
Who does the work in Newcastle?
Work is carried out by vetted electricians working under S&K Property Investments and Improvement Ltd, which is responsible for the job and invoices you directly.
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.
