Local emergency lighting installation in Sudbury

Most Sudbury 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.

We often find dark spots in Sudbury buildings where partitions have moved since the original emergency lighting was installed.

We cover the whole of Sudbury, including the CO10 postcode district, and nearby places such as Bures Hamlet, Sible Hedingham and Fordham.

Yes. Evening, weekend and phased working is common for Sudbury offices, shops and warehouses, so the business keeps running.
