Local emergency lighting testing in Ballycastle
Annual emergency lighting tests in Ballycastle are best booked for late afternoon or evening, so batteries can recharge overnight before people are back in.
Where Ballycastle buildings have changed layout, the annual test is a good moment to check that routes are still properly covered.
For Ballycastle premises we plan works around opening hours, deliveries and shared access, which matters on mixed-use estates and high streets.
