Tenterden FAQs
Which rules apply to lighting work in Tenterden?
Fire safety duties come from the Regulatory Reform (Fire Safety) Order 2005. For new lighting, Approved Document L sets the energy efficiency requirements. We design and certify work to BS 7671 and, for emergency lighting, BS 5266-1.
Do you cover all of Tenterden?
Yes. We work across Tenterden and the TN30 postcode district, plus nearby places such as Shadoxhurst, Peasmarsh and Smarden.
Can you work out of hours in Tenterden?
Yes. Evening, weekend and phased working is common for Tenterden offices, shops and warehouses, so the business keeps running.
Should external lights be on all night?
Not necessarily. Photocells with timers or presence sensors can keep routes lit when people are around and dim or switch off later, saving energy and reducing light spill.
