Light your premises, car parks and signage safely and efficiently, with sensor and timer control to keep sites secure and welcoming after dark.

Commercial exterior lighting for safety + deterrent

Dark car parks and entrances are security risks: poorly lit = break-ins, assaults, accidents. Well-lit premises deter crime (burglars hate light), reduce slip/trip claims, and signal a professional, cared-for business. Lighting also drives visitors — a forecourt that glows at night looks open and welcoming; a dark one looks closed and risky.

Sensor + photocell control

Lights running 12 hours/night costs money. PIR (motion) sensors mean lights blaze when someone approaches, then dim/off when gone — deters intruders AND cuts energy to 40% of constant-on. Photocells + timers ensure you never burn daylight hours.

Design and compliance

Car park lighting must meet specific lux levels (measured brightness) — too dim is unsafe, over-bright wastes money. We design to standard, specify durable commercial-grade fittings (vandal-resistant bollards, sealed floodlights), and run buried armoured cable so damage is unlikely.

Installation and return

New exterior lighting for a small site: £2,000–4,000. Retrofit of existing fixtures to LED + sensors: £3,000–6,000. Energy savings often cover cost in 2–3 years.
