Emergency Lighting
[ OVERVIEW ]Emergency lighting is a vital part of building safety. In the event of a power failure, it helps people find exits, navigate escape routes, and evacuate safely. For businesses and building managers, it is also a key compliance requirement that needs to be installed correctly and maintained properly.
Fletch Thomas Electrical provides emergency lighting installation, upgrades, testing and ongoing maintenance for commercial premises across the UK. We deliver tidy workmanship, clear documentation, and a straightforward service that supports compliance and peace of mind.
Emergency Lighting Installation
■
Whether you are fitting out a new space or upgrading an existing system, we can design and install emergency lighting that suits your layout and building use. We work closely with project teams to position fittings correctly and ensure the final system is practical, effective, and compliant.
Our installation service can include:
Emergency bulkheads and escape route lighting
Exit signage and directional lighting where required
High output emergency lighting for larger spaces
Upgrades from older fittings to modern LED solutions
Containment, cabling, labelling and tidy finishing
Commissioning, testing and handover documentation
If your site has a tight programme, we can coordinate with other trades and complete works efficiently to support deadlines.
Testing, Inspections and Maintenance
Emergency lighting is not a fit-and-forget system. Regular testing confirms it will perform as intended when needed most. We provide planned testing and maintenance support for businesses, landlords and facilities teams, helping keep records in order and issues addressed promptly.
Our maintenance support can include:
Routine functional testing and inspections
Duration testing where required
Fault diagnosis and repairs
Battery and fitting replacements
Reporting, records and compliance documentation
Support alongside EICR schedules and wider maintenance plans
If you manage multiple sites, we can help standardise testing schedules and keep documentation consistent across your portfolio.
If your current emergency lighting is unreliable, outdated, or failing tests, we can assess what is in place and recommend the most sensible approach. This may involve targeted repairs, fitting replacements, or a full system upgrade depending on the condition and site requirements.
Upgrading to LED emergency lighting can improve reliability and reduce maintenance issues over time, particularly in high-usage environments.
