Self-test emergency fittings suit many Cuddesdon buildings, because they run their own checks and flag faults, cutting the manual testing burden.

In Cuddesdon, 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.

We cover the whole of Cuddesdon, including the OX44, OX33 and OX4 postcode districts, and nearby places such as Cowley, Holton and Wallingford.
