Expert Emergency Lighting Maintenance for Doctors' & Dental Surgeries

Patients and visitors may be unfamiliar with the building and could require assistance during an evacuation. Emergency lighting helps provide visibility along escape routes and in relevant areas if normal lighting is lost.

The precise requirements depend on the premises and its fire risk assessment. Relevant areas may include reception spaces, waiting rooms, corridors, stairways, entrances and other parts of the escape route.

Monthly function tests should be carried out, alongside an annual full-duration discharge test lasting three hours. These checks help confirm that the emergency lighting and backup batteries remain capable of operating correctly.

Where practical, yes. We understand the importance of maintaining normal clinical operations and will work with your practice to identify suitable times for maintenance and minimise disruption.

Our engineers inspect emergency luminaires, batteries, charging equipment and associated controls, complete the relevant testing and record the results. Any defects or concerns are clearly documented.

We'll explain the issue identified during testing and provide practical recommendations for remedial action, helping the practice understand what needs to be addressed.
