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