Emergency lighting installation in Walsall

Escape route lighting and exit signs designed to BS 5266-1. Available across Walsall and the West Midlands. Exit signs in Walsall premises need to be visible from the route, which sometimes means adding directional signs at changes of direction.

Local emergency lighting installation in Walsall

In Walsall, 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 often find dark spots in Walsall buildings where partitions have moved since the original emergency lighting was installed.

Walsall sits within the West Midlands. We work throughout the WS1, WS2 and WS5 postcode districts and surrounding places, including Bloxwich, Wednesbury and Aldridge.
