Emergency Lighting

We install, commission and maintain emergency / escape lighting systems, supply a wide range of emergency lighting equipment including exit lights, over-head lighting and stair and floor illumination.

Purpose of emergency lighting

• To show clearly the escape routes and signage
• Allow safe movement without stumbling
• Help prevent panic
• Show & identify fire equipment (e.g. extinguishers)
• Permit safety operations such as locating and checking the fire control panel indications

Emergency lighting is a battery-powered lighting, which will switch on and illuminate when the power is cut from the mains. This is usually for the people inside the building to find the escape routes from premises until a place of safety is reached.

Guidelines now exist which mean all new larger buildings must have the correct emergency lighting fitted whilst older buildings must retro-fit emergency lighting to ensure the building is as safe as possible.
