Emergency lighting testing in Smarden

In short: monthly function tests, annual duration tests and certificates. Self-test fittings make monthly checks easier in Smarden buildings, but someone still needs to read the indicators and keep the log book.

Local emergency lighting testing in Smarden

We leave Smarden clients with a completed log book and certificate that can sit straight alongside their fire risk assessment.

Many Smarden businesses do their own monthly flick tests and bring us in for the annual three-hour test, repairs and the certificate.

For Smarden premises we plan works around opening hours, deliveries and shared access, which matters on mixed-use estates and high streets.
