External and security lighting in Carlisle
In short: wall packs, bulkheads and sensors for entrances, yards and perimeters. Many Carlisle businesses combine external lighting with car park and yard upgrades in a single visit.

Local external and security lighting in Carlisle
For Carlisle sites with CCTV, we aim external lighting to give cameras even coverage rather than glare.
On Carlisle estates with homes nearby, we choose low-glare optics and aim fittings down to keep light where it is needed.
Our teams travel to Carlisle from across Cumbria. Typical nearby jobs include Orton, Wetheral and Kirklinton, so we can often combine survey visits.

Yes. Old fittings are removed, and fluorescent tubes are recycled as hazardous waste through an authorised route, with paperwork for your records.
