Lux Testing & Safety Assessment
Most warehouses carry out the annual emergency lighting power test.
But very few ever measure whether the actual light levels reaching the floor are safe and compliant.
Most emergency lighting systems are never properly measured.
Emergency lighting systems are designed to provide safe visibility during a power failure or evacuation.
However, in many buildings the system has only ever been tested for power loss, not for the actual light levels delivered across the building.
Over time warehouses change.
• racking moves
• aisles shift
• layouts evolve
• operations expand
But the lighting system usually stays exactly the same.
This often creates dark spots and unsafe escape routes that are never discovered until someone measures the light.
Our Emergency Lighting Performance Survey identifies these risks before they become a problem.
Why emergency lighting surveys are becoming essential
UK safety regulations require emergency lighting to provide adequate illumination along escape routes and exits during an emergency.
However, most facilities teams have never measured the actual lux levels across their building.
Our survey provides clear answers.
Verify that emergency lighting levels meet recommended illumination standards across escape routes.
Provide documented evidence that lighting has been professionally assessed.
Our engineers only incorporate highly tested and reputable LED chip sets and constant current power sources.

Our Emergency Lighting Performance Survey identifies these risks before they become a problem.
During a recent warehouse survey, the emergency lighting system had passed its annual test every year.
However, lux measurements across evacuation routes revealed multiple areas with insufficient illumination levels.
The lights worked.
But the building would have been poorly lit during an emergency evacuation.
Without our survey, the issue would never have been discovered.
Without measuring the lux levels, the warehouse would have remained non-compliant, leaving the client exposed to potential safety risks, regulatory scrutiny and serious liability in the event of an accident.
If your building has never had a professional emergency lighting survey, it’s impossible to know whether your system is truly compliant.
