Emergency Lighting Testing, Maintenance & Repairs

Emergency lighting is there to help people leave a building safely if the normal lighting fails. Like any safety system, it should be checked and maintained so that it is ready to operate when needed.

Sanders Secure can attend site to test existing emergency lighting, identify obvious failures, check condition, advise on defects and provide clear notes for your records.

This service works well alongside our fire alarm servicing and maintenance, giving businesses and responsible persons a more joined-up approach to fire safety system support.

Emergency Lighting Services We Provide

Our emergency lighting work is focused on keeping existing systems tested, documented and working as intended.

What Can Be Checked During a Visit?

Every site is different, but an emergency lighting service visit can include practical checks on the existing system and visible equipment.

The aim is to confirm whether emergency lights operate when tested, identify units that may have failed, and provide clear recommendations for remedial works where required.

  • Functional operation of emergency lighting fittings
  • Visible condition of emergency light units
  • Signs of damaged, failed or missing fittings
  • Battery or charging issues where identifiable
  • Recommendations for repair or replacement where suitable
  • Clear service notes for the customer’s records

Common Emergency Lighting Faults

Emergency lighting can appear fine during normal building use, but faults may only become obvious during testing or when mains lighting fails.

  • Fittings not illuminating during test
  • Weak or short battery duration
  • Damaged emergency light fittings
  • Failed lamps or LED units
  • Charging indicator issues
  • Missing or poor emergency lighting records

Who We Support

Emergency lighting servicing is suitable for many commercial, managed and public-facing premises with existing emergency lighting systems.

Standards, Records & Responsible Persons

Emergency lighting should be managed as part of a building’s fire safety arrangements. Testing and maintenance should be suitable for the building, the risk and the existing emergency lighting system in place.

Where applicable, emergency lighting work is considered with reference to relevant guidance such as BS 5266 and BS EN 50172. Sanders Secure does not replace the need for a suitable fire risk assessment or professional emergency lighting design.

Our role is to help customers maintain, test, fault-find and repair existing emergency lighting systems, with clear notes and practical recommendations where issues are found.

Important Note

We can advise on faults and maintenance requirements, but we do not currently provide new emergency lighting design or full new installation projects.
