Local emergency lighting installation in Pentwyn

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

Most Pentwyn 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.

Pentwyn is a smaller town, covered by postcode districts CF23, CF3 and CF24. We regularly work across South Glamorgan, so access, parking and out-of-hours working are planned before we arrive.
