The Brew Cabin

hi ,first of all ,must say what a fabulous site ,

i am about to have my drive block paved in 3 weeks & have been told about some lighting that is the size of a block ,it replaces 1 of them & has some kind of pir ,does anybody have any details about them or a website that supplies them ,would like these installed in mine ,thanks for any info u can provide

I have read in the brett paving catalogue, (www.brettpaving.com) a product called glo lights. These are in the shapes of blocks and come in various colours. They also come in a pack of ten, with a transformer and 30m of cable and also a timer. I remember getting a quote for these from brett themselves and they said roughly £50-100.
Also there is another product called drivelite made by marshalls. Thsi costs about £50 for a set from Travis Perkins.

I hope that this helps

Is that the 2003 Brett catalogue, Liam? I haven't seen that yet.

I was speaking with the reps from Top Pave at the Homebuilding Exhibition in Birmingham last week and they have a small lighting set available as of this year. They are individual lights, about the size of a 10p coin, that they will fit to any of their paving products to order. They work out at around 25 quid per light but they seem to me to be decorative rather than functional; that is, they'll look pretty but they won't light up the drive/patio sufficiently to read a newspaper or eat your tea.

Here's a pic I took....



....they come in 4 colours : white, blue, orange and green, I think it was. More info in the new Top Pave catalogue which came out last week.

Drivelight from Marshalls are much bigger at 200x100 and much brighter. They're featured in the new Marshalls catalogue on page 61.
