Defibrillator installation

One of our recent defibrillator installations at a local arts centre, mounted on an external wall so accessible to all who may need it.

We decided to fit a small light fitting above it that automatically comes on when it gets dark.

A defibrillator can be the difference between life and death, and they usually straight forward to install in most work places or public areas. They are constantly being charged, and have a built in battery so once deployed they are very mobile and versatile. They also have clear instructions for users so it is hard to get it wrong.

Get in touch to see how we can help you.
