Emergency lighting testing in Royton
Monthly function tests, annual duration tests and certificates. Available across Royton and Greater Manchester. Self-test fittings make monthly checks easier in Royton buildings, but someone still needs to read the indicators and keep the log book.

Local emergency lighting testing in Royton
Many Royton businesses do their own monthly flick tests and bring us in for the annual three-hour test, repairs and the certificate.
If fittings in your Royton premises fail their annual test, we give you a fixed price for replacement batteries or fittings before we leave.
Our teams travel to Royton from across Greater Manchester. Typical nearby jobs include Chadderton, Oldham and Middleton, so we can often combine survey visits.

Royton FAQs
Can you work out of hours in Royton?
Yes. Evening, weekend and phased working is common for Royton offices, shops and warehouses, so the business keeps running.
Is the price fixed?
Yes. After the survey you get a fixed price for the scope agreed. If you add to the scope later, we price the extra before doing it.
Which rules apply to lighting work in Royton?
Fire safety duties come from the Regulatory Reform (Fire Safety) Order 2005. For new lighting, Approved Document L sets the energy efficiency requirements. We design and certify work to BS 7671 and, for emergency lighting, BS 5266-1.
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.
