When you need this form
Car parks, stairwells, loading docks and building entries all rely on lighting that works after dark. This check runs on a routine round, after a storm or lamp failure, and before an insurer or owner walk. Illuminated signage and exit or hazard signage sit in the same sweep. Poor lighting is a slip, trip and security risk, and most clients expect a documented inspection cycle rather than an ad hoc report.
A dead fitting photographed at 6pm on the actual pole tells a different story to a tick in a spreadsheet. Live capture stamps each defect with its location, a photo and the person who found it, so the owner can see the fault and the repair on one record. That trail is what settles arguments about when a light failed and who was told.
What good looks like
- Every fitting checked by location: car park, stairwell, entry, loading dock.
- Failed lamps and flickering fittings photographed, not just ticked as faulty.
- Illuminated signage tested for operation, damage, water ingress and secure fixing.
- Safety and directional signage confirmed legible, unobstructed and correctly placed.
- Authorised sign-off with defect priorities and the repair job raised.
External lighting and signage check, answered
Is this a PDF or Word template?
Neither. It is a live form: your crew opens it on their phones, ticks it through, attaches photos and signs on the glass. Every submission is timestamped, GPS-pinned and stored as proof.
How often should external lighting be checked?
Most sites run a monthly or quarterly round, with extra checks after storms, outages or reported failures. Clients and insurers usually want a documented cycle, so record every check even when nothing is faulty.
What should an external lighting and signage check include?
Operation of each fitting, damage or corrosion, obstructed or illegible signage, and illuminated sign faults. Add photos of every defect, a priority rating, the location and an authorised signature closing the inspection.
