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

Local external and security lighting in Shildon
Fire exit doors in Shildon buildings need a light outside so people can see the way to a place of safety.
On Shildon estates with homes nearby, we choose low-glare optics and aim fittings down to keep light where it is needed.
For Shildon premises we plan works around opening hours, deliveries and shared access, which matters on mixed-use estates and high streets.

Shildon FAQs
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.
Do you remove the old fittings in Shildon?
Yes. Old fittings are removed, and fluorescent tubes are recycled as hazardous waste through an authorised route, with paperwork for your records.
How quickly can you survey in Shildon?
Most surveys in Shildon 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.
