Local emergency lighting installation in Croft

Self-test emergency fittings suit many Croft buildings, because they run their own checks and flag faults, cutting the manual testing burden.

Most Croft premises we survey have emergency lighting that has grown piecemeal. We map every escape route and open area against BS 5266-1 before suggesting new fittings.

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