They are vital in commercial and industrial premises in order to let people safely escape the building in case of emergency situations, fire or loss of power. Emergency lighting design is the act of designing the back-up lighting system so that exits from a building are clearly defined for people to safely follow directions to these exits during an emergency.

All buildings must follow certain lighting standards to facilitate the safety of its occupants in emergency situations. This type of work is performed by a specialist lighting company such as Fire & Electrical Safety Ltd familiar with all the requirements stipulated by the British Standards BS 5266.
