Emergency lighting installation in Battersea

Local emergency lighting installation in Battersea

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

In Battersea, 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.

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