What Is a Fire Alarm System?
A fire alarm system detects fire, warns the people in the building and triggers whatever else needs to happen, from unlocking doors to alerting a monitoring centre. Every commercial building in the UK needs one, and the responsible person for the premises is legally accountable for it working
System Types:
Addressable fire alarms, which identify the exact device in alarm rather than just the zone
Conventional fire alarms, zone based and cost effective for smaller premises
Wireless fire alarm systems for listed buildings, live sites and anywhere cabling is disruptive
Compliance & Integration:
- 1. Fire alarm panels act as the central control point for the entire system
- 2.Fire alarm interfacing connects the system to sprinklers, door release, access control and emergency lighting
- 3. A fire risk assessment (FRA) is carried out as part of every system plan
How Our Fire Alarm Systems Work
Every commercial fire alarm installation follows the same five stages: fire risk assessment, system design to the right BS 5839 category, installation by our own engineers, testing and commissioning, then scheduled maintenance. The design stage is the one that matters most, because a system specified to the wrong category either fails an inspection or costs more than it needed to
Types of Fire Alarm Systems We Offer
We install and support all four system types. Which one suits your building depends on its size, layout and how quickly you need to locate the source of an alarm.
Addressable Fire Alarms
Each device reports individually so the control panel identifies the exact detector or call point in alarm, making them ideal for larger or more complex buildings.
Conventional Fire Alarms
Zone-based fire alarm systems suited to smaller premises where identifying the affected area is sufficient for evacuation and investigation.
Wireless Fire Alarm Systems
Radio-linked devices minimise disruption and are well suited to occupied buildings or sites where cabling is difficult.
Fire Alarm Panels & Interfacing
Panel replacement, upgrades and interfacing with existing building systems to keep your fire alarm installation compliant and reliable.
Not Sure Which System Is Right for Your Building?
Book a Free Site SurveyFire Alarm Maintenance and Service Contracts
BS 5839 recommends servicing at least every six months by a competent person, plus a weekly test by someone on site. Our fire alarm maintenance covers every system type and produces a certificate after each visit for your fire log book.
What's Included:
- Detector testing, panel checks and battery load testing
- Emergency lighting and interfacing checks
- Call point testing and sounder audibility checks
- A service certificate and report after every visit, for your fire log book
We Take Over Systems Installed by Others
Plenty of businesses end up with a fire alarm system and no one supporting it, because the company that installed it has moved on, been acquired or stopped answering.
We take on commercial fire alarm maintenance for systems of any make. The first visit is a full survey, so you find out the true condition of the system before you commit to a contract.
Fire Alarm Repair and Fault Finding
A panel in fault is not something you can leave until the next service visit. It usually means part of the system is not protecting the building, and it will show up on your next inspection.
We carry out fire alarm repair on systems of any make, not only ones we installed. Panels in fault, systems sounding without cause, intermittent faults that nobody has managed to trace, detector failures and end of line problems.
Where a panel is genuinely obsolete and parts are no longer available, we will tell you that and quote for replacement rather than keep charging for repeat visits on something that cannot be fixed.
Temporary Fire Alarm Systems for Construction Sites
A construction site needs fire cover from the day work starts, long before the permanent system is anywhere near commissioned. A temporary fire alarm system gives you that, and because we already secure construction sites with CCTV towers and monitoring, we understand how a site actually changes week to week.
Wireless Site Alarm Systems
A construction site alarm system with radio linked call points and sounders, so units can be moved as the site layout changes. No cabling to run and nothing to make good when it comes out.
Installed at Mobilisation, Removed at Handover
Temporary fire alarms for construction sites are installed when the site opens, extended as the build progresses, and removed at handover. You pay for the period you need rather than buying equipment that leaves with the project.
Alongside Your Site Security
Most sites need fire cover and security cover at the same time. Running both through one supplier means one survey, one point of contact and one set of paperwork.
