Local emergency lighting installation in Aberdare

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

We often find dark spots in Aberdare buildings where partitions have moved since the original emergency lighting was installed.

We cover the whole of Aberdare, including the CF44, CF48 and CF43 postcode districts, and nearby places such as Rhondda, Merthyr Tydfil and Treorchy.
