Local emergency lighting installation in Golborne

In Golborne, 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.

Most Golborne 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.

Our teams travel to Golborne from across Merseyside. Typical nearby jobs include Newton-le-Willows, Ashton in Makerfield and Croft, so we can often combine survey visits.
