---THE SERVICE---

Lights that work when the power doesn't

Emergency lighting is the quiet hero of fire safety — ignored until the mains fail, and expected to guide everyone out when they do. Regular testing is the only way to know it will.

We service emergency escape lighting for businesses, landlords and agents across Plymouth, Devon and Cornwall — from individual staircase fittings to whole-building systems in offices, schools and HMOs.

--- WHAT A VISIT COVERS---

6 checks on every fitting, every year

Full test and service to BS 5266-1 — discharge test, battery health and all the paperwork.

Full system inspection

Every luminaire and exit sign checked for damage, correct operation and siting against BS 5266-1.

Full-duration discharge test

Mains isolated and fittings left on battery for their full rating — typically three hours — on the annual visit.

Battery health check

Charge condition and age verified on every fitting; failing batteries quoted before they’re replaced.

Coverage & signage check

Escape routes still properly lit and labelled — we flag anywhere layouts have changed and coverage no longer works.

Certificate & logbook

Test results recorded, your logbook updated and a service certificate issued before we leave site.

Reminder service

Next test date diarised — compliance never quietly slips again.

---KEEPING YOU COMPLIANT

Monthly flick tests, annual duration test

BS 5266-1 recommends a short functional test — a ‘flick test’ — each month, and a full rated-duration discharge test at least every twelve months.

The monthly check stays with you — and it’s a two-minute job. On our first visit we’ll happily show your team how and where to log it.

3 Hours
Annual full-duration test

We isolate the mains and prove your fittings run their full rating on battery power.
