Our logbooks also track all repairs and installations, allowing for easy, affordable book replacement only once every five years.

Why Choose Emergency and Exit Lighting?Emergency lighting systems operate independently from the main power grid, with battery backup systems that provide essential lighting during power outages. These lights guide occupants safely to exits, allowing both occupants and emergency personnel to navigate the building more effectively.

An emergency lighting system must be installed:

1. in every fire-isolated stairway, fire-isolated ramp or fire-isolated passageway, and
2. in every storey of Class 5, 6, 7, 8 or 9 buildings where the storey has a floor area of more than 300 m2
3. in every passageway, corridor, hallway, or the like that is part of the path of travel to an exit; and
4. in any room having a floor area of more than 100 m2 that does not open to a corridor or space that has emergency lighting or to a road or open space; and
   

iii. in any room having a floor area of more than 300 m2; and

1. in every passageway, corridor, hallway, or the like, having a length of more than 6 m from the entrance doorway of any sole-occupancy unit in Class 2 or 3 building or Class 4 part of a building to the nearest doorway opening directly to –
2. a fire-isolated stairway, fire-isolated ramp or fire-isolated passageway; or
3. an external stairway serving instead of a fire-isolated stairway under D1.8; or

iii. an external balcony leading to a fire-isolated stairway, fire-isolated ramp or fire-isolated passageway; or

1. a road or open space, and
2. in every required non-fire-isolated stairway; and
3. in a sole-occupancy unit in Class 5, 6 or 9 building if –
4. the floor area of the unit is more than 300 m2; and
5. an exit from the unit does not open to a road or open space or to an external stairway, passageway, balcony or ramp leading directly to a road or open space; and
6. in every room or space to which there is public access in every storey in Class 6 or 9b building if?
7. the floor area in that storey is more than 300 m2; or
8. any point on the floor of that storey is more than 20 m from the nearest doorway leading directly to a stairway, ramp, passageway, road or open space, or
   

iii. egress from that storey involves a vertical rise within the building of more than 1.5 m, or any vertical rise if the storey concerned does not admit sufficient light; or

1. the storey provides a path of travel from any other storey required by (i), (ii) or (iii) to have emergency lighting; and
2. in a Class 9a healthcare building –
3. in every passageway, corridor, hallway, or the like, serving a treatment area or a ward area, and
4. in every room having a floor area of more than 120 m2 in a patient care area, and
5. in every Class 9c aged care building, excluding sole-occupancy units, and
6. in every required fire control centre.
   

An exit sign must be clearly visible to persons approaching the exit and must be installed on, above or adjacent to each:

1. door providing direct egress from a storey to –
2. an enclosed stairway, passageway or ramp serving as a required exit; and
3. an external stairway, passageway or ramp serving as a required exit; and
