Emergency Lighting for Islington landlords
Islington is one of inner London's densest rental markets — Georgian and Victorian terraces split into flats across Angel, Highbury and Finsbury Park. Whether you manage a single flat or a portfolio of properties across N1, N4, N5, our accredited engineers can attend quickly, carry out your Emergency Lighting and email you the certificate the same day.
Emergency lighting is the system that keeps escape routes visible when the normal supply fails. Each luminaire contains a battery designed to run it for a defined period — normally three hours — after a power loss. Testing verifies that every unit actually achieves that duration, because a battery that has silently degraded looks identical to one that works. We carry out the full annual duration test, inspect the coverage of the system, and issue the certificate and log-book entries required by BS 5266.

Where emergency lighting is required
The Regulatory Reform (Fire Safety) Order 2005 requires that emergency routes and exits requiring illumination are provided with emergency lighting of adequate intensity in case of failure of their normal lighting, and places the duty on the responsible person — the landlord, freeholder, managing agent or employer. BS 5266-1 sets the technical standard and the testing regime: a monthly short functional test of every luminaire, and a full-duration annual test in which each unit must remain adequately illuminated for its full rated period. Results must be recorded in a fire safety log book. For licensed HMOs, emergency lighting to communal areas and escape routes is routinely a condition of the licence.
