Local emergency lighting testing in Prestonpans
Self-test fittings make monthly checks easier in Prestonpans buildings, but someone still needs to read the indicators and keep the log book.
Many Prestonpans businesses do their own monthly flick tests and bring us in for the annual three-hour test, repairs and the certificate.
Prestonpans is a smaller community with its own businesses, covered by postcode districts EH32, EH33 and EH21. We regularly work across Edinburgh and the Lothians, so access, parking and out-of-hours working are planned before we arrive.
