Emergency lighting installation in Kilsyth

Local emergency lighting installation in Kilsyth

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

Our teams travel to Kilsyth from across Lanarkshire. Typical nearby jobs include Cumbernauld, Kirkintilloch and Dennyloanhead, so we can often combine survey visits.
