Local emergency lighting testing in Mitcham
Many Mitcham businesses do their own monthly flick tests and bring us in for the annual three-hour test, repairs and the certificate.
Self-test fittings make monthly checks easier in Mitcham buildings, but someone still needs to read the indicators and keep the log book.
For Mitcham premises we plan works around opening hours, deliveries and shared access, which matters on mixed-use estates and high streets.
