Emergency lighting testing in Crewe
In short: monthly function tests, annual duration tests and certificates. Many Crewe businesses do their own monthly flick tests and bring us in for the annual three-hour test, repairs and the certificate.
Local emergency lighting testing in Crewe
Self-test fittings make monthly checks easier in Crewe buildings, but someone still needs to read the indicators and keep the log book.
If fittings in your Crewe premises fail their annual test, we give you a fixed price for replacement batteries or fittings before we leave.
Crewe is a major centre for offices, retail and industry, covered by postcode districts CW1, CW2 and CW5. We regularly work across Cheshire, so access, parking and out-of-hours working are planned before we arrive.
