Local emergency lighting testing in Shepherds Bush
Self-test fittings make monthly checks easier in Shepherds Bush buildings, but someone still needs to read the indicators and keep the log book.
If fittings in your Shepherds Bush premises fail their annual test, we give you a fixed price for replacement batteries or fittings before we leave.
For Shepherds Bush premises we plan works around opening hours, deliveries and shared access, which matters on mixed-use estates and high streets.
