Outdoor lighting in Pinetown

Pinetown sits a short way inland from Durban, with a large industrial area around New Germany and Westmead and leafy residential suburbs in Kloof, Cowies Hill and Padfield Park. Factories and distribution centres need yard floods, high bays and perimeter lights, while homeowners want security lighting, garden fittings and pool lights for steep, wooded properties. Subtropical humidity, heavy summer rain and the occasional misty spell on the escarpment mean water ingress is the main enemy of cheap fittings, and salt still drifts in on sea breezes. Security estates in Kloof and Hillcrest often control glare and light spill. Electricians issue a CoC on completion.
