Car Showroom LED Lighting Upgrade

Full LED lighting upgrade across workshop, offices, corridors, WCs, and back of house areas.

Perrys Vauxhall Huddersfield Automotive / Commercial

Perrys Vauxhall Huddersfield approached CTE Contractors to modernise their lighting throughout the site. Their existing fluorescent fittings were becoming unreliable and inefficient, leading to high running costs and poor light quality in key work areas.

 The Challenge

The dealership’s lighting system was dated, uneven, and expensive to maintain.

  • The workshop lighting failed to deliver consistent brightness for technicians working on vehicles.
  • Office and corridor areas suffered from flickering tubes and rising energy costs.
  • Many fittings had reached the end of their life, making replacements both time-consuming and costly.

Perrys wanted a modern, energy-efficient solution that improved visibility, reduced maintenance, and lowered their overall electricity consumption without disrupting daily operations.

The Solution

CTE Contractors designed and delivered a complete LED lighting upgrade tailored to each area of the site:

  • Workshop: High-output LED battens replaced fluorescent fittings to ensure even illumination and improved working conditions.
  • Offices & Corridors: Slimline LED panels created a clean, professional look while enhancing comfort and brightness.
  • WCs & Back Areas: Compact, low LED fittings with long lifespans provided reliable, maintenance-free operation.

The installation was carefully scheduled to minimise downtime, allowing Perrys to continue day-to-day operations without interruption.

“Our goal was to provide Perrys with a long-term lighting solution that reduced running costs and improved every aspect of their environment from the service bays to the sales offices.”

The Results

The LED rollout delivered immediate improvements across the site:

  •  Up to 60% reduction in energy consumption compared to the old fluorescent system
  • Brighter, more consistent lighting throughout the workshop and offices
  • Reduced maintenance thanks to long-life LED fittings
  • Modern, professional appearance in customer-facing areas

Perrys Vauxhall now benefits from a safer, more efficient workplace that supports both staff productivity and sustainability goals.
