Increased protection
against vandalism.
Business owners find that Leased
Floodlighting gives them the added safety
and security they need. Well lighted
walkways, loading docks, or other areas
lessen the chance of an accident from
stumbling. And when property is brightly
illuminated, vandals are less likely to strike.
Leased Floodlighting is automatic, on-at-
dusk, off-at-dawn. To get Leased
Floodlighting for your business, just give us
a call.
Less chance of accidents from
stumbling in the dark.
