Emergency Lighting
Emergency lighting that works when the power doesn't — designed, installed and tested to BS 5266‑1, so escape routes stay lit and exits stay visible. Based in Stockport, covering Greater Manchester, Cheshire and the Peak District, with sites nationwide.
Escape routes, open areas and high-risk task areas covered to BS 5266‑1 — using self-contained luminaires or a central battery system, depending on what suits the building. Either way, the point is the same: enough light to get out safely if the mains supply fails.
A monthly function test and an annual full 3‑hour duration test are both required by BS 5266‑1, and both need a written record. We carry out the testing on schedule and provide the paperwork.
We're based in Stockport and cover emergency lighting installation and testing across Greater Manchester, Cheshire and the Peak District, with sites further afield across the UK.
