Local emergency lighting installation in Worthing

Most Worthing 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.

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

Our teams travel to Worthing from across West Sussex. Typical nearby jobs include Lancing, Shoreham-by-Sea and Rustington, so we can often combine survey visits.
