Duty of care
Are your employees and customers safe if the lights go out?
Emergency lighting is what gets people out of a building safely — and from 6 September 2026 the Physical Agents Regulations make it a legal requirement too. That's 47 days from today.
A full cycle — HSE gap analysis, design, quote, installation, commissioning — runs 6–12 weeks for a typical commercial building. Start with a free walkthrough and we'll show you exactly what your site needs, what it costs, and how to phase it.
