Latest Solar Powered Signlite

Latest Solar Powered Signlight

Further to our launch of the only solar powered self contained unit on the market.

We are delighted to publish pictures of the latest version now available which has an improved custom made aluminium light head, replacing the plastic head supplied previously.

 The new head is more compact, but using the same super bright LED unit gives out more than enough light to illuminate standard road signs.

 The solar unit being seperate to the light head means you can swivel the PV unit to enable it to make the most of the sunlight.The PV unit also incorporates a photocell, to save energy so the light unit only is switched on during the hours of darkness.

I hope that you agree that this latest version is a neat clean design which can be mounted onto any 76mm post, not requiring a large base section as the battery is incorporated in the post top unit.

Where seeing really is believing.

Britain's Toughest Bollard

Highways team hail

 “Britain’s toughest bollard”

Gateshead Council’s Highways Engineering Team believe they have found a contender for the “Toughest Bollard in Britain”.

The Night Owl bollard from Street Furnishings is situated at a former accident black spot near Birtley.

It has been nudged, whacked or run over virtually every day for over 12 months and is still standing and performing its duty.

The ‘T’ junction, situated on a virtually blind bend in the road, was notorious for collisions as vehicles ‘cut the corner’ despite the give way warning signs and associated road markings.

In an attempt to prevent this, the council constructed an island complete with two Night Owl keep-left, bounce-back bollards which have dramatically reduced accidents.

The corner remains ‘tight’ and although drivers are now approaching it with more care, many larger vehicles still cut the corner and hit the Night Owl bollard nearest to the junction.

Ian McCran of Gateshead Council said: “The scheme has been a great success in reducing collisions.

“And it has proven to us the inherent, outstanding durability of Leafield’s Night Owl sign bollard; so much so that it is now Gateshead’s current preferred choice for keep left self-righting bollards.”
So impressed have the Council been with the performance of the Night Owl that they are about to trial the recently introduced Illuminated Night Owl which is base lit with a high performance LED and is reported to be so energy efficient that it costs less than £4 per annum to operate.

Bramley Seat

Our Popular Bramley Seat is now available with engraving directly into the hardwood back.

We have always offered the option of engraved plaques, but these are smaller and can restrict the amount of lettering that can be sensibly engraved.

With this direct engraving the lettering is a lot larger and more easily legible.

We are able to offer this option on our traditional Park Bench as well.

The Bramley is our most popular bench seat as it is competitively priced whilst being very robust.

Available in root fix or surface fix bolt down, with or without a seat arm option.

This seat can also be made in a hexagonal version with or without a back, which is ideal for seating placed around a tree. A curved option is also available.

Availability is usually around 2 weeks as these seats are all made to order.

Waitrose Height Restriction Barrier

Waitrose Car Park in Gerrards Cross Buckinghamshire

New to Gerrards Cross is the Waitrose Supermarket with a handy car park which has now had our custom made Waitrose height restriction barrier installed to control the type of vehicles that will have access to park. 

This model finished in a black powder coated finish ( to match the weather for the day the photo was taken) has the option of being able to be opened fully via a padlock fixing.

The beams simply hinge back and can be locked in the open position if required, with additional catch posts for access by emergency vehicles etc.

The barriers are all custom made to customers requirements for height and width, another option available is a knocking bar which hangs below the horizontal bar to act as a warning to over height vehicles of the liklehood of being too high for the barrier.

Please contact our sales on 01189 404717 for any further information.
