For larger Stourbridge sites, an addressable system lets you see every emergency fitting's status from one panel.

In Stourbridge, 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 Stourbridge, including the DY8, DY9 and DY5 postcode districts, and nearby places such as Brierley Hill, Kingswinford and Kinver.
