Local emergency lighting installation in Slough

We often find dark spots in Slough buildings where partitions have moved since the original emergency lighting was installed.

In Slough, 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.

Slough sits within Berkshire. We work throughout the SL1, SL2 and SL3 postcode districts and surrounding places, including Windsor, Iver and Maidenhead.
