Local external and security lighting in Forres
Business units in Forres 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 Forres sites with CCTV, we aim external lighting to give cameras even coverage rather than glare.
Our teams travel to Forres from across Moray. Typical nearby jobs include Nairn, Elgin and Lossiemouth, so we can often combine survey visits.
We cover Forres by arrangement. Because of travel and access, visits are usually grouped with other work in Moray, so please allow more time for a survey and tell us about any ferry or access constraints.
