Local emergency lighting installation in Wilden

In Wilden, as elsewhere, the person responsible for fire safety must make sure escape routes are lit if the power fails. A clear design and certificate is the simplest evidence for your fire risk assessment.

Exit signs in Wilden premises need to be visible from the route, which sometimes means adding directional signs at changes of direction.

For Wilden premises we plan works around opening hours, deliveries and shared access, which matters on mixed-use estates and high streets.
