FAQs
Why is emergency and exit lighting important?
Emergency and exit lighting guides occupants toward safe exit points during power outages or emergency situations, helping maintain calm and ensuring an orderly evacuation. It’s a crucial element of any fully compliant fire safety system.
How often should emergency and exit lights be tested?
AS 2293.2 requires all emergency and exit lighting to be tested every six months to confirm each unit can operate for the full 90-minute duration. Our team provides routine testing and maintenance to ensure your system remains compliant, dependable, and ready for any emergency.
What happens during an emergency lighting inspection?
Our technicians perform a complete functional test by simulating a power loss, confirming battery backup performance, and ensuring every light and exit sign operates correctly. Any faults or non-compliant fittings are identified and repaired promptly to keep your system fully operational and compliant.
Can I replace emergency or exit light fittings myself?
No. Emergency lighting installation or replacement must only be completed by a licensed electrician with the appropriate training. Attempting DIY electrical work can create serious safety risks and lead to non-compliance. Our qualified team handles all installations, upgrades, and replacements in accordance with Australian Standards.
What types of emergency and exit lighting systems are available?
We provide and service a full range of emergency and exit lighting options, from individual fittings to centrally monitored systems and modern energy-efficient LED units. Every solution is tailored to suit your building’s evacuation needs and compliance requirements.
