Emergency Lighting

Design, installation, testing and compliance for Australian workplaces

Emergency lighting isn’t optional—it’s a legal requirement in all commercial and public buildings across Australia. At GLS Electrical, we provide complete emergency lighting solutions, from system design and installation through to scheduled testing, maintenance and upgrades...

Whether you’re fitting out a new building, updating an older system, or need to meet Australian Standards for compliance and safety, we’ll make sure your emergency lighting does what it’s meant to—keep people safe when it matters most.

What We Offer?

We take care of every stage of your emergency lighting system:::

Design & Layout – We plan the correct type and placement of fittings, exit signs and emergency battens to meet AS/NZS 2293.1 design requirements.>
Installation – Our licensed electricians install high-quality, compliant systems for new builds, extensions, and refurbishments.
Commissioning – We test and certify new installations to ensure they meet AS/NZS 2293.2 performance and reliability standards.
Scheduled Testing & Maintenance – Six-monthly and annual discharge testing, inspections, logbook updates, and replacement of faulty components.

Emergency lighting that meets the standard—and works when it counts.

Why It’s Important:

Emergency lighting isn’t just for show. In a fire, blackout or emergency evacuation, people rely on this system to find exits, navigate hallways, and avoid hazards. It’s one of the most critical safety features in any building—and it has to work properly every time.

We regularly service:

Offices and corporate buildings
Warehouses, workshops and factories
Schools, TAFEs, and universities
Hospitals, clinics and aged care centres
Shopping centres and retail stores
Hotels, venues and accommodation sites
Council, government and public infrastructure

We work carefully and methodically to avoid unnecessary downtime, and we keep you informed at every step.

Staying Compliant:

We follow the full set of requirements from the AS/NZS 2293 suite:

AS 2293.1 – System design, layout and performance
AS 2293.2 – Inspection, testing, and maintenance

Keeping your system up to standard isn’t just about avoiding fines—it ensures your building is prepared for a real emergency.
