External and security lighting in Didcot
In short: wall packs, bulkheads and sensors for entrances, yards and perimeters. On Didcot estates with homes nearby, we choose low-glare optics and aim fittings down to keep light where it is needed.
Local external and security lighting in Didcot
Photocell and timer control lets Didcot premises keep routes lit when staff are around and dim later at night.
For Didcot sites with CCTV, we aim external lighting to give cameras even coverage rather than glare.
We cover the whole of Didcot, including the OX11 and OX14 postcode districts, and nearby places such as Abingdon, Wallingford and Marcham.
