Emergency lighting for Aberdeen buildings
Aberdeen's granite city centre, offshore-sector offices and multi-storey housing blocks bring a mix of commercial servicing and residential fire safety work.
When the mains supply fails, emergency lighting has to light escape routes, exits, changes of direction and firefighting equipment for long enough for everyone to leave. For most buildings that means three hours.
We design layouts from a survey, install maintained or non-maintained fittings, and carry out the monthly functional tests and annual full-duration tests that BS 5266-1 expects. For larger sites, self-test and addressable emergency lighting systems cut testing time and give you an automatic record.
The rules that apply in Aberdeen
In Scotland, fire safety in non-domestic premises is governed by the Fire (Scotland) Act 2005 and the Fire Safety (Scotland) Regulations 2006, and enforced by the Scottish Fire and Rescue Service. Scotland has its own building standards system and its own approach to cladding risk.
