Local emergency lighting testing in Orton
We leave Orton clients with a completed log book and certificate that can sit straight alongside their fire risk assessment.
Self-test fittings make monthly checks easier in Orton buildings, but someone still needs to read the indicators and keep the log book.
Our teams travel to Orton from across Cumbria. Typical nearby jobs include Carlisle, Wetheral and Waverton, so we can often combine survey visits.
