Emergency lighting testing in Bothwell
In short: monthly function tests, annual duration tests and certificates. Where Bothwell buildings have changed layout, the annual test is a good moment to check that routes are still properly covered.

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