Local external and security lighting in Hawkinge

Business units in Hawkinge 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 Hawkinge sites with CCTV, we aim external lighting to give cameras even coverage rather than glare.

Our teams travel to Hawkinge from across Kent. Typical nearby jobs include Folkestone, Hythe and Whitfield, so we can often combine survey visits.

Hawkinge FAQs

Do you remove the old fittings in Hawkinge?

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

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.

Which rules apply to lighting work in Hawkinge?

Fire safety duties come from the Regulatory Reform (Fire Safety) Order 2005. For new lighting, Approved Document L sets the energy efficiency requirements. We design and certify work to BS 7671 and, for emergency lighting, BS 5266-1.

Can lighting help our CCTV?

Yes. Even, well-aimed white light with good colour rendering gives cameras clearer images than patchy, glaring lights.
