WHY US?
Exit and Emergency Lighting is found in nearly every commercial building in some shape or form – read more
Do I need Emergency Lighting?
Typically, we see buildings renovated and the Exit and Emergency Lighting left to electricians, who often have no Emergency and Exit Lighting training to install and unfortunately in many cases they simply guess the light locations where the exit and Emergency lights are required.
What types of Emergency light is there?
Commonly there are two main types of Exit Lights used in buildings, one that simply uses the word EXIT and the other which is referred to as the “Running Man” which depicts a person moving through an exit door.
Where do I put them?
Every building is normally different in building class, type and layout and just placing an Exit Sign above a door does not make the building compliant.
Is my Exit and Emergency Lighting broken?
Our certifiers have seen many examples of Emergency and Exit Lighting systems that fall way below the requirements for the design and installation set out in AS 2293.1 and do not meet the requirements of AS 2293.2 for Inspection and maintenance.

About Exit Emergency Lighting..
Emergency Exit Lighting is an essential safety feature in any building, whether it be a commercial or residential space. It provides illumination and direction to help occupants evacuate safely during a power outage or other emergency situations. The most recognizable component of Emergency Exit Lighting is the emergency exit sign, which is usually illuminated and positioned above or beside the exit doors. These signs guide occupants to the nearest exit, indicating the direction of travel with an arrow or other symbol. The letters “EXIT” are usually displayed prominently on the sign, making it easily recognizable in low light or smoky conditions.
Emergency Exit Lighting also includes other types of emergency lighting such as fire lights, which are designed to indicate the location of fire extinguishers or other firefighting equipment. Additionally, there are exit lights that use LED strobe lights or rechargeable emergency lights to provide bright and long-lasting illumination. Some exit signs even come with lights built-in, known as an “exit sign with lights”. Green exit signs are the most common type of exit sign used in the United States, as they provide excellent contrast and are easily recognized from a distance.
In Australia, Emergency Exit Lighting systems must comply with the AS2293 standard, which outlines the requirements for emergency lighting and exit signs. This standard includes regulations for the placement of emergency exit signs, the type and brightness of lighting, and the duration of illumination during an emergency. By following this standard, building owners can ensure that their Emergency Exit Lighting system is reliable and effective.
In addition to meeting safety regulations, Emergency Exit Lighting can also provide a sense of security to occupants during normal operating conditions. Having reliable safety lighting, such as LED emergency lights, in parking lots or stairwells can make occupants feel safer and more confident while navigating the building. Overall, Emergency Exit Lighting is a crucial safety feature that can save lives in an emergency situation.
