Emergency lighting testing in Harlow
In short: monthly function tests, annual duration tests and certificates. Self-test fittings make monthly checks easier in Harlow buildings, but someone still needs to read the indicators and keep the log book.
Local emergency lighting testing in Harlow
Many Harlow businesses do their own monthly flick tests and bring us in for the annual three-hour test, repairs and the certificate.
We leave Harlow clients with a completed log book and certificate that can sit straight alongside their fire risk assessment.
Harlow is one of the larger places we cover, covered by postcode districts CM20, CM18 and CM17. We regularly work across Essex, so access, parking and out-of-hours working are planned before we arrive.
