Is emergency lighting a legal requirement?

For most commercial premises, HMOs and workplaces, yes — the Regulatory Reform (Fire Safety) Order 2005 requires adequate emergency lighting on escape routes, and it must meet BS 5266.

How often should emergency lighting be tested?

A brief function test monthly, and a full-duration (usually 3-hour) test annually. We can carry these out and certificate them for you on a schedule.

BS 5266 is the British Standard for emergency lighting. It sets out where emergency lights are needed, how bright they must be, and how they should be tested and maintained.

How much does emergency lighting cost?

It depends on the size of the premises and the number of luminaires. We survey the site and provide a fixed quote for design, installation and ongoing testing.

Do you provide a certificate?

Yes — you receive a completion certificate for new installations and periodic test certificates for ongoing testing, ready for your fire risk assessment.

Can you cover HMOs and communal areas?

Yes. We install and test emergency lighting for HMOs, flats and communal areas to the grade and category your local authority requires.
