Local external and security lighting in Settrington

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

Business units in Settrington 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 Settrington premises we plan works around opening hours, deliveries and shared access, which matters on mixed-use estates and high streets.

Settrington FAQs

Which rules apply to lighting work in Settrington?

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.

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.

Do you remove the old fittings in Settrington?

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

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.
