Emergency lighting testing in Chorley
What we do in Chorley: monthly function tests, annual duration tests and certificates. If fittings in your Chorley premises fail their annual test, we give you a fixed price for replacement batteries or fittings before we leave.

Local emergency lighting testing in Chorley
Many Chorley businesses do their own monthly flick tests and bring us in for the annual three-hour test, repairs and the certificate.
Self-test fittings make monthly checks easier in Chorley buildings, but someone still needs to read the indicators and keep the log book.
For Chorley premises we plan works around opening hours, deliveries and shared access, which matters on mixed-use estates and high streets.
