Emergency & Exit Lighting Installation, Testing & Maintenance
In an emergency, clear visibility can be the difference between a safe evacuation and serious risk. Emergency and exit lighting plays a critical role in guiding occupants out of a building when normal lighting fails, smoke reduces visibility, or a fire requires immediate evacuation. At FCF Fire & Electrical Brisbane, we provide complete installation, testing, and ongoing servicing of emergency and exit lighting systems to help ensure your building remains safe, clearly marked, and fully compliant at all times.
Compliance You Can Trust
Emergency escape lighting and exit signage in Brisbane are required to meet the requirements of AS 2293 for emergency lighting systems, along with AS 1319 for compliant safety signage. Our qualified technicians carry out regular testing, servicing, and maintenance of all emergency and exit lighting systems to these standards. This includes checking batteries, lamps, wiring, and control systems to ensure everything operates correctly and your premises remains compliant during inspections and in the event of an emergency.

FAQs
Why is emergency and exit lighting critical in Brisbane buildings?
Emergency and exit lighting provides clear guidance for occupants during power outages, fires, or other emergencies when normal lighting fails. In Brisbane buildings, these systems are essential for safe evacuation, helping people locate exits quickly and reducing the risk of injury in low-visibility conditions.
How often must emergency and exit lighting be tested?
Emergency and exit lighting systems must be tested regularly in accordance with AS 2293. This includes routine six-monthly operational testing and annual full discharge testing. Regular testing ensures batteries, fittings, and wiring will function correctly during an emergency.
What is involved in an emergency lighting inspection?
During an inspection, our Brisbane technicians check all emergency lights and exit signs for correct operation, illumination levels, battery performance, and compliance. Any faults, failed components, or non-compliant fittings are identified and addressed, with detailed reports provided for your records.
Can emergency or exit light fittings be replaced without a licensed technician?
Emergency and exit lighting systems form part of a building’s life-safety infrastructure and must be installed and maintained by qualified professionals. Using a licensed Brisbane technician ensures all works are compliant, correctly tested, and legally certified.
What emergency and exit lighting system options are available?
Emergency lighting systems can include self-contained battery units, centrally monitored systems, LED exit signs, and specialised solutions for different building types. We assess your Brisbane property and usage requirements to recommend the most suitable and compliant system.
