Local emergency lighting testing in Rushden
If fittings in your Rushden 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 Rushden buildings, but someone still needs to read the indicators and keep the log book.
We cover the whole of Rushden, including the NN10, NN9 and NN29 postcode districts, and nearby places such as Irthlingborough, Wollaston and Wellingborough.

Rushden FAQs
How quickly can you survey in Rushden?
Most surveys in Rushden can be booked within a few working days. Tell us about any deadlines, such as a lease end or a fire risk assessment action, and we will try to fit around them.
Which rules apply to lighting work in Rushden?
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.
Can you work out of hours in Rushden?
Yes. Evening, weekend and phased working is common for Rushden offices, shops and warehouses, so the business keeps running.
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.
