Local emergency lighting installation in Eastleigh

Most Eastleigh 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.

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

Our teams travel to Eastleigh from across Hampshire. Typical nearby jobs include Bishopstoke, North Baddesley and Hedge End, so we can often combine survey visits.
