Smart Emergency Lighting for Safer Spaces

Where to Install Emergency Lighting?

With meticulous attention to detail and a strong commitment to precision and safety, we carry out our emergency lighting installations for buildings of all sizes, ensuring everything is done to the highest standards. Our experts help you map out the exact location for installing emergency lighting:

  • Exit Doors: Directly above or beside every final exit door from a building.
  • Escape Routes: Along all corridors, hallways, and stairways so every flight of stairs gets direct light.
  • Route Changes: At every intersection, corridor turn, and change in floor level.
  • Safety Equipment: Next to fire alarm call points and firefighting gear.
  • Open Areas: In large rooms over 60 square meters or windowless rooms larger than 8 square meters.
  • High-Risk Zones: Near critical machinery or plant and switch rooms that need a safe shutdown.
  • External Exits: Right outside final exit doors and along outdoor paths leading to safety.

Light The Way from the First Alarm to the Final Exit

Our tailored emergency lighting solutions can illuminate escape routes, stairways, exit doors, changes in floor level, and other important areas identified through your fire safety assessment.

Light the Way When Every Second Matters

Our Core Installation Process

Site Assessment: We thoroughly inspect the building to map out all escape routes, final exits, and high-risk task areas that help plan the precise location for each light.

Mounting the Fixtures: After shutting off the main power supply and locking out the circuit, we mark holes on the wall or ceiling, drill holes, and firmly screw the backplate into place.

Making Electrical Connections: We run an unswitched live feed to keep the units charged under normal conditions, then we connect the active, neutral, and earth wires into the terminal block.

Power-Up & Initial Charging: We restore the power supply to the circuit breaker and verify that the indicator charge light turns on to show the battery is receiving power.

Testing and Handover: Our experts confirm that the emergency lamps switch on automatically and provide adequate light coverage. We also record all details, test results, and schedules in the site’s official fire safety logbook.

Frequently Asked Questions

Why is emergency lighting important in a commercial building?

If the normal power supply fails, people still need to see where they are going and identify a safe way out. Emergency lighting helps maintain visibility around designated escape routes and exits, reducing confusion during situations such as fire, electrical failure, or other emergencies.

Yes. An existing building can be assessed to determine whether its current emergency lighting provides suitable coverage. Sock & Co Property Solutions can review the layout, exits, circulation areas, and higher-risk locations before recommending additional fittings or improvements where required.

There is no universal setup that works for every property. The choice can depend on the building’s purpose, occupancy, escape arrangements, layout, and risk assessment. Systems may use maintained, non-maintained, or central-battery arrangements depending on the circumstances.

The process typically begins with a site assessment and equipment selection. Cameras are positioned and secured, cabling and power connections are completed where required, recording equipment is configured, remote access is set up wherea

Important locations can include escape corridors, stairways, final exits, changes in direction or level, and areas containing fire safety equipment. Higher-risk work areas may also require dedicated emergency illumination so people can safely stop or leave potentially dangerous processes.

applicable, and the entire system is tested before completion.

Yes. Installing the equipment is only part of keeping the system dependable. UK guidance recommends routine functional testing and regular professional inspection, with test results recorded appropriately. GOV.UK guidance describes monthly function checks and an annual full discharge test as typical arrangements.

A failed fitting should not simply be ignored or left until the next scheduled inspection. The cause should be investigated, which may involve a battery, lamp, connection, charging circuit, or complete fitting. Sock & Co Property Solutions can identify the fault and carry out suitable remedial work.

Yes. Appropriate records are an important part of managing a safety system. Depending on the work undertaken, documentation can include installation or commissioning information, inspection results, testing records, and details of remedial work. Keeping a clear testing history is considered good practice.

No. Although emergency escape lighting is particularly important during a fire or evacuation, a loss of normal illumination can happen for other reasons, including electrical faults and power failures. The system provides visibility when the ordinary lighting supply is unavailable.

Yes. An existing system can be inspected to establish its condition, configuration, and performance. Where faults or deficiencies are identified, appropriate repairs, replacements, or improvements can then be recommended rather than assuming the entire installation needs replacing.

We provide support across the lifecycle of an emergency lighting system, from assessing the premises and planning fixture positions to installation, testing, maintenance, and fault resolution. Our approach focuses on dependable illumination, appropriate system design, accurate records, and helping property owners maintain a safer environment for occupants.
