Local emergency lighting installation in Ventnor

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

Most Ventnor 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.

Ventnor sits within the Isle of Wight. We work throughout the PO38 and PO37 postcode districts and surrounding places, including Sandown, Newport and Bembridge.

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