Frequently Asked Questions about Pull cord light fitting in Sidmouth
Where can you fit pull cord lights?
Bathrooms mainly - they're a requirement there for safety. But also toilets, bedrooms, anywhere you'd prefer a cord to a wall switch.
Why is a cord better than a switch?
For bathrooms, cords are required by regulations. But for elderly users, a cord you can reach from bed or chair is often easier than finding a wall switch.
What height do you fit them?
Where you can easily reach. Bathroom codes say within reach of where you stand. For bedrooms, often within reach of the bed.
Is this electrical work?
Yes - involves wiring. We connect the pull cord switch to the lighting circuit. Proper job done to regulations.
