Local emergency lighting installation in Arisaig

In Arisaig, 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.

Most Arisaig 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.

Arisaig sits within the Highlands and Islands. We work throughout the PH39 and PH40 postcode districts and surrounding places, including Mallaig, Isle of Eigg and Kentra.

We cover Arisaig by arrangement. Because of travel and access, visits are usually grouped with other work in the Highlands and Islands, so please allow more time for a survey and tell us about any ferry or access constraints.
