Local emergency lighting installation in Shepherds Bush

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

Most Shepherds Bush 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.

Shepherds Bush is a busy commercial centre, covered by postcode districts W12, W14 and W11. We regularly work across Greater London, so access, parking and out-of-hours working are planned before we arrive.
