Emergency lighting testing in Highbury
Monthly function tests, annual duration tests and certificates. Available across Highbury and Greater London. Where Highbury buildings have changed layout, the annual test is a good moment to check that routes are still properly covered.

Highbury FAQs
Can you work out of hours in Highbury?
Yes. Evening, weekend and phased working is common for Highbury offices, shops and warehouses, so the business keeps running.
Do you remove the old fittings in Highbury?
Yes. Old fittings are removed, and fluorescent tubes are recycled as hazardous waste through an authorised route, with paperwork for your records.
Who does the work in Highbury?
Work is carried out by vetted electricians working under S&K Property Investments and Improvement Ltd, which is responsible for the job and invoices you directly.
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.
