Emergency Lighting Testing & Maintenance
Keep your buildings safe, compliant and ready when it matters most
When the power fails, your emergency lighting is the roadmap out of the building. If it doesn’t work, people don’t just lose light – they lose safe escape routes.
At CSE Facilities, we provide planned emergency lighting testing, inspection and certification for commercial, industrial and educational buildings across the UK, with a strong base in the North West.
✔ BS 5266 compliant
✔ Detailed test logs & asset registers
✔ Minimal disruption to your operations
Why Emergency Lighting Testing Matters
Legal Compliance
Employers and duty holders must ensure emergency lighting is installed, tested and maintained in line with UK regulations and standards. Regular testing demonstrates that you’ve taken all reasonable steps to protect staff, pupils and visitors.
Life Safety
In a fire or power cut, exit routes, stairwells and high–risk areas must remain visible. Properly tested emergency lights give people a clear, safe route out of the building.
Insurance & Risk Management
Inadequate testing can undermine insurance claims after an incident. Our digital records and certificates provide clear evidence that your systems are maintained correctly.
Peace of Mind for Duty Holders
We take ownership of the schedule, reminders and reporting – so you don’t have to chase tests, dates or paperwork.
