Local emergency lighting installation in Braunstone

In Braunstone, 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.

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

Our teams travel to Braunstone from across Leicestershire. Typical nearby jobs include Glen Parva, Leicester and Narborough, so we can often combine survey visits.
