Local emergency lighting testing in Honiton

If fittings in your Honiton premises fail their annual test, we give you a fixed price for replacement batteries or fittings before we leave.

Self-test fittings make monthly checks easier in Honiton buildings, but someone still needs to read the indicators and keep the log book.
