Local emergency lighting installation in Chapeltown

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

In Chapeltown, 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 Chapeltown, including the S35, S74 and S5 postcode districts, and nearby places such as Hoyland, Wombwell and Burngreave.
