Emergency Lighting
Emergency lighting ensures that occupants can safely exit the building in the event of an emergency and power outage. As a business owner, it is your duty of care to ensure you have the correct provision in place to safeguard your employees and occupants. We install and maintain effective lighting systems in Gloucester, Gloucestershire, Bristol, Avon, Worcester, Wiltshire and all the surrounding areas.

The Importance Of Emergency Lighting
Emergency lighting plays a vital role in protecting employees and visitors during a power failure or emergency situation. In the event of a fire or outage, it ensures that escape routes, exits, and safety equipment remain clearly visible. Without effective emergency lights, evacuation can become hazardous, increasing risk to life. Regular testing and maintenance is essential to ensure your system performs when it’s needed most. At City Fire Protection, we provide reliable lighting services tailored to businesses.

Emergency Lighting Maintenance
Our experienced engineers can inspect your existing lighting to ensure it will be effective when required. When our engineer visits your property, they will perform a thorough inspection of the complete system and will repair any faults on the day.
Maintenance is required to ensure your system will be effective in the event of a mains power failure. Power failures can be caused by many factors including fires. It is essential that occupants can exit the building with the aid of safety lighting. Failure to maintain your lighting system can result in people not being able to swiftly exit the property, and can also cause panic.
Legal Requirements For Businesses
UK law requires all commercial premises to have compliant emergency lighting. This is under The Regulatory Reform (Fire Safety) Order 2005. Systems must be installed and maintained in line with British Standard BS 5266-1. By following this standard, your system clearly illuminates evacuation routes during a power loss to support a safe evacuation. This ensures safe evacuation routes are clearly illuminated during a power loss. Businesses are also responsible for regular testing and keeping up-to-date maintenance records. City Fire Protection offers professional lighting testing and maintenance to help your premises remain fully compliant.
