External and security lighting FAQs for Shropshire
What energy rules apply to new lighting in Shropshire?
Approved Document L sets the efficiency that new lighting in Shropshire must meet. We check fittings against it at design stage and keep the evidence for building control.

What do LED floodlights cost?
As a budget, an LED floodlight costs around £200–£500 installed, depending on output, mounting height and access, excluding VAT.
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.
