External and security lighting FAQs for North Yorkshire

How are prices set in North Yorkshire?

Our guide prices are adjusted for regional labour costs. After a survey you get a fixed price for the agreed scope.

Which fire safety law applies in North Yorkshire?

The Regulatory Reform (Fire Safety) Order 2005 sets the duties of the person responsible for fire safety, including emergency lighting where escape routes need it.

Can lighting help our CCTV?

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

Should external lights be on all night?

Not necessarily. Photocells with timers or presence sensors can keep routes lit when people are around and dim or switch off later, saving energy and reducing light spill.
