Local emergency lighting installation in Portadown

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

Most Portadown 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.

We cover the whole of Portadown, including the BT62, BT63 and BT64 postcode districts, and nearby places such as Craigavon, Lurgan and Banbridge.
