Essential safety measures
Exit signs, emergency lighting, fire doors and other safety measures must keep working for the life of a building. We inspect them and help owners stay compliant.

What we check
Commercial, industrial and multi-unit residential buildings have essential safety measures listed on their occupancy permit or maintenance determination. Owners must keep these maintained and prepare an annual essential safety measures report.
- Exit and emergency lighting, exit signs and paths of travel
- Fire doors, fire-isolated stairs and smoke separation
- Portable fire equipment, hydrants and hose reels
- Review of maintenance records against your schedule of measures
You receive a clear report listing what complies, what doesn’t, and what to fix first.
