Specialist Floodlighting Services at Paignton Rugby Club<\/h2>\n

Sports Lighting provides more than just new floodlighting installations. We also specialise in the lowering, removal and reinstatement of existing floodlighting equipment, including at sports grounds shared by rugby, football and cricket clubs.<\/p>\n

At Paignton Rugby Club in Devon, this type of specialist work helps accommodate the different requirements of seasonal sports, allowing facilities to be used throughout the year.<\/p>\n

Seasonal Floodlighting Removal and Reinstatement<\/h2>\n

Where rugby or football grounds are shared with cricket clubs, floodlighting columns may need to be lowered or repositioned to accommodate the cricket season.<\/p>\n

In some cases, this work is required twice each year as the ground transitions between cricket and rugby or football.<\/p>\n

LED floodlights may also need to be carefully removed and stored before being reinstated when the relevant playing season resumes.<\/p>\n

Sports Lighting has extensive experience carrying out this specialist work, helping clubs manage their shared facilities while protecting existing floodlighting equipment.<\/p>\n

Hydraulic Column Lowering Equipment<\/h2>\n

Not every floodlighting maintenance project requires a cherry picker or other powered access equipment.<\/p>\n

Sports Lighting has a selection of approximately 12 different hydraulic rams, allowing us to lower suitable floodlighting columns ranging from 4 metres to 22 metres in height.<\/p>\n

This specialist equipment enables us to undertake column lowering and reinstatement work where the existing installation is designed to accommodate the process.<\/p>\n

Floodlighting Column Lowering for Electrical Contractors<\/h2>\n

In addition to working directly with sports clubs, Sports Lighting regularly assists electrical contractors who require specialist support when replacing or upgrading floodlights.<\/p>\n

We can provide a column-lowering and raising service, allowing contractors to install replacement LED floodlights or carry out other electrical work while the columns are safely lowered.<\/p>\n

Once the work has been completed, the columns can be raised back into their operating positions.<\/p>\n

Professional Sports Floodlighting Maintenance Across the UK<\/h2>\n

With over 30 years of experience, Sports Lighting provides specialist floodlighting installation, maintenance, column lowering and reinstatement services throughout the UK.<\/p>\n

Whether you manage a rugby club, football ground, cricket facility or require assistance as an electrical contractor, we can help with the practical requirements of your floodlighting system.<\/p>\n

Contact Sports Lighting to discuss your floodlighting column lowering, seasonal reinstatement or maintenance requirements.<\/strong><\/p>\n
