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

In Mangotsfield, 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.

Our teams travel to Mangotsfield from across Gloucestershire. Typical nearby jobs include Kingswood, Frampton Cotterell and Bitton, so we can often combine survey visits.
