Emergency lighting testing in Hilton
Monthly function tests, annual duration tests and certificates. Available across Hilton and Derbyshire. Many Hilton 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 Hilton
Self-test fittings make monthly checks easier in Hilton buildings, but someone still needs to read the indicators and keep the log book.
If fittings in your Hilton premises fail their annual test, we give you a fixed price for replacement batteries or fittings before we leave.
We cover the whole of Hilton, including the DE65 and DE3 postcode districts, and nearby places such as Mickleover, Burton upon Trent and Sinfin.

Hilton FAQs
Do you remove the old fittings in Hilton?
Yes. Old fittings are removed, and fluorescent tubes are recycled as hazardous waste through an authorised route, with paperwork for your records.
Which rules apply to lighting work in Hilton?
Fire safety duties come from the Regulatory Reform (Fire Safety) Order 2005. For new lighting, Approved Document L sets the energy efficiency requirements. We design and certify work to BS 7671 and, for emergency lighting, BS 5266-1.
Can you work out of hours in Hilton?
Yes. Evening, weekend and phased working is common for Hilton offices, shops and warehouses, so the business keeps running.
Why is the annual test done out of hours?
After a full-duration test the batteries need time to recharge, so the building is less protected for a while. Testing at the end of the day avoids that risk while people are inside.
