Local external and security lighting in Queensferry
Business units in Queensferry 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 Queensferry sites with CCTV, we aim external lighting to give cameras even coverage rather than glare.
We cover the whole of Queensferry, including the EH30, EH29 and EH28 postcode districts, and nearby places such as Kirkliston, Inverkeithing and Newbridge and Ratho.
