There are some really great safety features as well . The drive mechanism has a tamper proof cover and removable handle so no unauthorized use occurs . The light head is retrofitted with an electrical contactor that de-energizes the fixture as soon as you start to lower the head so there is no electrical hazard . The device is also equipped with a tension sensing fall brake . If the pole is hit by a vehicle or vandalized , the steel brake activates and keeps the fixture from falling . So now not only have you eliminated the need for an expensive bucket truck , but you do n't need an electrician either . Maintenance personnel can now change the bulb at ground level ! Any property owner is going to be concerned with cost . This is one of the best things about retropole . The national average for traditional light pole maintenance is about $ 250 a year per pole . For example , a property that has 10 pole lights would cost about $ 2500 a year to maintain . With retropole you keep that money , add it to the property's bottom line , and you have just added $ 25000 to the value ( income method ) of the property . The upgrade to retropole does n't cost anywhere near that much . At $ 800 per unit with the purchase of 10 units , that would be a cost of $ 8000 . Thats a net gain of $ 17000 in equity and a 2 year return on investment . More Great Benefits retrople can adapt to most types of poles . Whether your pole be square , round or tapered , retrople can work for you . Since retropole is indeed a retrofit application , your existing light heads need not be changed allowing for original design of parking lot to be maintained . Different finish types on poles can be matched and applied to retropole for a seemingly invisible installation .
