External and security lighting in Whitfield

From offices to warehouses, we handle external and security lighting for Whitfield businesses. Every job starts with a survey and ends with testing, certification and a clear fitting schedule.

External and security lighting in Whitfield

Wall packs, bulkheads and sensors for entrances, yards and perimeters. Business units in Whitfield often have old SON floodlights over the yard and halogen bulkheads by the doors. LED replacements use far less power and come on instantly.

Local external and security lighting in Whitfield

On Whitfield estates with homes nearby, we choose low-glare optics and aim fittings down to keep light where it is needed.

For Whitfield sites with CCTV, we aim external lighting to give cameras even coverage rather than glare.

Our teams travel to Whitfield from across Kent. Typical nearby jobs include Dover, Deal and Sandwich, so we can often combine survey visits.
