Local emergency lighting installation in Gravesend

Most Gravesend 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.

Exit signs in Gravesend premises need to be visible from the route, which sometimes means adding directional signs at changes of direction.

Gravesend is a working town with a good mix of businesses, covered by postcode districts DA11, DA12 and RM18. We regularly work across Kent, so access, parking and out-of-hours working are planned before we arrive.
