Emergency evacuations are something we all hope to avoid. But if they do occur, are you 100% confident that you have an emergency lighting and signage system in place that could guide users of your building to an emergency exit?
Emergency signage and lighting is a key component of any building or facility. When there’s a power outage these systems can prevent the loss of life and injury, as well as enable people to evacuate buildings safely and quickly.
A system that allows people to see and exit a building in an emergency is a legal requirement for all buildings in the UK. Ensuring it is serviced annually and well maintained is your obligation as the building’s responsible person.
OHEAP Fire and Security have been installing, servicing and maintaining emergency lighting systems to the highest standards for a very long time. Trust us with your emergency lighting today, and feel confident your emergency evacuation procedures will keep people safe.
