Emergency Lighting

Illuminating the path to safety — every time, without fail.

Light the Way to Safety

When a fire breaks out, panic sets in fast. Power failures often accompany fires, leaving occupants disoriented in darkness with minimal time to escape. Emergency lighting and exit sign systems are designed to activate immediately when the mains power fails, providing essential illumination along escape routes and at exits — guiding people to safety even in zero-visibility conditions.

Active Fire Solution NZ supplies, installs, and maintains a full range of emergency lighting solutions for commercial, industrial, and residential buildings. All systems comply with the NZ Building Code Clause F6 and relevant Standards NZ requirements.

Emergency Lighting Solutions We Provide

Exit Signs

Clearly illuminated directional exit signs that remain lit during power failure, guiding occupants to all exits.

Escape Route Lighting

Pathway lighting that illuminates corridors, stairwells, and escape routes for safe evacuation.

Self-Contained Systems

Individual units with integrated batteries — easy to install, low maintenance, ideal for smaller buildings.

Central Battery Systems

A single battery bank powers all emergency lights — ideal for large buildings requiring centralised management.

Maintained Systems

Emergency lights that remain on permanently as decorative lighting and switch to battery mode during power failure.

Non-Maintained Systems

Only activate when mains power fails — cost-effective for most standard commercial applications.
