Emergency lighting installation in Skeeby

Local emergency lighting installation in Skeeby

Most Skeeby 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.

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

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