Local emergency lighting testing in Pathhead
Self-test fittings make monthly checks easier in Pathhead buildings, but someone still needs to read the indicators and keep the log book.
Where Pathhead buildings have changed layout, the annual test is a good moment to check that routes are still properly covered.
Pathhead sits within Edinburgh and the Lothians. We work throughout the EH37, EH35 and EH23 postcode districts and surrounding places, including Ormiston, Arniston and Humbie.
