Local emergency lighting installation in Catton

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

For larger Catton sites, an addressable system lets you see every emergency fitting's status from one panel.

Our teams travel to Catton from across the East Riding of Yorkshire. Typical nearby jobs include Barmby Moor, Wheldrake and Earswick, so we can often combine survey visits.

Catton FAQs

How quickly can you survey in Catton?

Most surveys in Catton can be booked within a few working days. Tell us about any deadlines, such as a lease end or a fire risk assessment action, and we will try to fit around them.

Do you remove the old fittings in Catton?

Yes. Old fittings are removed, and fluorescent tubes are recycled as hazardous waste through an authorised route, with paperwork for your records.

Is the price fixed?

Yes. After the survey you get a fixed price for the scope agreed. If you add to the scope later, we price the extra before doing it.

Which standard applies?

BS 5266-1:2025 is the current code of practice, replacing the 2016 edition. It works alongside BS EN 1838:2024 for light levels and BS EN 50172:2024 for installation, testing and records.
