The brief

Residential compliance, automated.

The brief was to upgrade ageing maintained-lighting fittings to a self-test, self-reporting standard across six residential floors, and to give the managing agent automatic monthly reports so the compliance audit trail wrote itself.

We specified self-test fittings on every escape route, hard-wired them to a central monitoring node, and configured the platform to email the managing agent on the first of each month with a pass/fail per fitting.

Quick Overview

Self-test emergency lighting

Every escape-route fitting on a self-test schedule, no manual stick-test ever again.

Central compliance node

All fittings report status back to a single platform on site.

Automated monthly reports

Managing agent receives a pass/fail report by email on the 1st of each month.

Resident-friendly install

All floor-level work completed between 10am and 4pm, no out-of-hours disturbance.
