Local external and security lighting in Duns
On Duns estates with homes nearby, we choose low-glare optics and aim fittings down to keep light where it is needed.
For Duns sites with CCTV, we aim external lighting to give cameras even coverage rather than glare.
For Duns premises we plan works around opening hours, deliveries and shared access, which matters on mixed-use estates and high streets.
