Local emergency lighting installation in Welling

We often find dark spots in Welling buildings where partitions have moved since the original emergency lighting was installed.

Most Welling 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.

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