At AJ Electrical Services, we specialise in Emergency Lighting Installation, Testing & Inspection for all types of commercial buildings across Derby, Derbyshire, and the Midlands. Whether you operate a care home, school, office, warehouse, shop, or factory, our qualified JIB electricians ensure your premises are fully compliant with UK safety regulations and emergency lighting standards.
Why Emergency Lighting Installation Is Essential
Emergency lighting is more than a legal requirement; it’s a lifesaving system designed to guide people to safety during a power outage or emergency. In commercial premises such as offices, care homes, or schools, properly installed emergency lighting ensures:
- Safe evacuation routes
- Compliance with The Regulatory Reform (Fire Safety) Order 2005
- Protection for employees, clients, and visitors
- Reduced risk of liability and penalties
Without effective emergency lighting, your business could face serious legal consequences or put lives at risk in the event of fire or electrical failure.
Our Comprehensive Emergency Lighting Services
At AJ Electrical Services, we provide a complete solution for emergency lighting systems, including design, installation, testing, inspection, maintenance, and certification.
