Local emergency lighting testing in Corby
If fittings in your Corby premises fail their annual test, we give you a fixed price for replacement batteries or fittings before we leave.
Self-test fittings make monthly checks easier in Corby buildings, but someone still needs to read the indicators and keep the log book.
We cover the whole of Corby, including the NN17 and NN18 postcode districts, and nearby places such as Warkton, Kettering and Market Harborough.
