Local emergency lighting testing in Soho
Self-test fittings make monthly checks easier in Soho buildings, but someone still needs to read the indicators and keep the log book.
If fittings in your Soho premises fail their annual test, we give you a fixed price for replacement batteries or fittings before we leave.
We cover the whole of Soho, including the W1F, W1B and W1D postcode districts, and nearby places such as Pimlico, Camden and Islington.
