Local emergency lighting installation in Bruton

In Bruton, 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 Bruton 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.

Bruton is a smaller town, covered by postcode districts BA10, BA7 and BA9. We regularly work across Somerset, so access, parking and out-of-hours working are planned before we arrive.
