Emergency lighting for Huddersfield buildings
Huddersfield mixes a large student population and education sites with engineering and textile businesses, offices and stone-built homes in the surrounding valleys.
For schools we light classrooms, halls and escape routes and keep test records ready for inspection. For warehouses and factories we light escape routes and high-risk task areas around machinery. For offices we light escape routes, stairs and exits so people can leave safely in a power cut.

Design and installation
We design escape route, open area and high-risk task lighting for Huddersfield premises, with maintained or non-maintained fittings and illuminated exit signs, based on your fire risk assessment. We are in Huddersfield most weeks, so it is straightforward to book visits that suit you.
Common faults we find
Batteries that last minutes instead of three hours, no test key fitted, exit signs pointing the wrong way after a refit, and gaps in coverage after partitions or racking were added. See our maintenance contracts.
