Local emergency lighting installation in Penarth

In Penarth, 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.

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

Penarth is a working town with a good mix of businesses, covered by postcode districts CF64, CF10 and CF11. We regularly work across South Glamorgan, so access, parking and out-of-hours working are planned before we arrive.
