Outdoor Commercial LED Lighting Installation
Energy usage is the concern hitting businesses of all sizes up and down the UK. Approximately 89% of UK businesses used more energy than ever before in 2024, and this is only expected to rise.
Installing outdoor commercial LED lighting is one of the best ways to slash your energy bills. At Wells Electrical Contractors, we’re a CHAS and Construction Line-affiliated electrical system supplier, and we’re here to upgrade your outdoor lighting with high-performance, energy efficient LED lighting.

What to consider with commercial LED lighting

Light-emitting diode (LED) lighting is a guaranteed way of cutting your bills and reducing your carbon emissions. Unlike other bulbs, there’s no wire filament and almost no heat. LED lights are approximately 80% more energy efficient than halogen lights.
Installing outdoor commercial LED lighting is the way forward, but as we’ve learned from upgrading 100 Smyths Toys facilities with LED lighting, every installation is bespoke. Here’s what to consider before shopping for LEDs:
· Comparability – Does your existing outdoor electrical infrastructure support the fixtures that are compatible with LED bulbs? Contact us and we’ll send out an electrician to determine the extent of any work that needs doing.
· Corrosion Resistance – Any lights outdoors must be safe and protected. Any business located near our extensive coastlines must also consider the salt in the air, which can result in early degradation.
· British Standard Regulations – British Standards govern the regulations businesses must follow when it comes to lighting. Streamline your compliance by working with one of our expert electrical contractors.
Of course, these are just some of the considerations. You’ve also got positioning, lighting output, and colours to think about. Whether you’re thinking about your car park, building sites, or external walkways, what matters is that your outdoor LEDs are tailored to your business.

Why upgrade to outdoor commercial LED lighting?

Upgrading to commercial LED lighting outdoors unlocks several benefits for your firm. The most common benefit is that you’re getting a more efficient lighting solution. Some of this comes from how they function, but also because they’re more reliable, offering over 40,000 light hours before burning out.
And LED lighting is simply more versatile. With countless lighting and colour options, you can create the external ambience you want. Simultaneously, it’s simply safer. Since they emit almost no heat, there’s a lower chance of injury and accidental fires.
LEDs aren’t just an outdoor upgrade but also a cost-saving measure that repays the initial investment many times over across the years. More information on why you should upgrade to LED lighting
