Escape route lighting and exit signs designed to BS 5266-1. Self-test emergency fittings suit many Strood buildings, because they run their own checks and flag faults, cutting the manual testing burden.

Local emergency lighting installation in Strood

For larger Strood sites, an addressable system lets you see every emergency fitting's status from one panel.

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

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