Local emergency lighting installation in Hayle

Most Hayle 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.

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

Hayle is a smaller community with its own businesses, covered by postcode districts TR27 and TR26. We regularly work across Cornwall, so access, parking and out-of-hours working are planned before we arrive.
