Standard lighting comes in the form of low level and high level options ranging from path/deck lighting all the way up to 5metre high street columns with a wealth of combinations in between.
The traditional lamp holder fittings tend to be cheaper to purchase than their LED counterparts albeit the maintenance costs on these are often higher due to their expected life span. For example, a standard Flourescent lamp may last approximately 10,000 hours whilst the LED alternative closer to 50,000 hours. The LED version also uses less energy, therefore keeping the cost of the electricity consumption down in conjunction with having a higher longevity than a standard lamp.
When choosing street lighting, these factors are especially important as the maintenance costs to replace the lamps may also involve the hiring of equipment to safely reach the height of the fitting. Should you wish to avoid these additional maintenance charges, hinged street light columns are also available.
