Emergency lighting must operate when the mains fails and guide people safely out of a building. To do that reliably it needs regular testing and prompt repair, in line with the current standard, BS 5266-1:2025.
Everstone Fire & Security provides monthly functional testing and annual full-rated-duration testing, repairs faults, replaces failed units, and carries out new installations where cover is inadequate. Every test is recorded so you have a clear, ongoing compliance history.
From a single building to a managed portfolio, we keep your emergency lighting working and documented, so you can demonstrate that this critical life-safety system is properly maintained.

Beyond the report
If anything needs fixing, we can manage that too
Where your report identifies repairs, upgrades, or remedial works, you don't have to source contractors yourself. As part of the Everstone group, we work with a network of trusted third-party contractors and manage works across our portfolios every day. We'll arrange the right trade, oversee the job, and keep you updated, end to end.
