Business Fire Alarm System Design
Fire alarms and fire detection systems play a huge role in every commercial fire safety system. Millions of businesses across the globe rely on their alarms to provide protection of property and people against the risk of fire - but very few get it right.
Both national and European laws demand that all public and business buildings retain a minimum level of fire alarm and protection equipment, and that it be maintained to a qualified standard by a competent person fully conversant with the technology. Our expert team will work with you to design a comprehensive alarm system that integrates with your existing technology framework, from access controlled doors to visitor management solutions.
Education Fire Alarm System Design
Outside of everyday education, keeping students safe at school is the number one priority for staff members and parents. A comprehensive fire alarm system is an integral part of your school’s safety precautions, and will determine how quickly you respond to threats on-site.
Being based near Oxford and having a close relationship with Oxford University, we’ve had the privilege of installing alarm systems in heritage, listed and protected educational buildings throughout the county. Our industry-leading alarm solutions have been deployed in a range of scenarios, and built to each school’s specifications - often with discreet manual call points to reduce the risk of tampering, interference and false alarms.
Home Fire Alarm System Design
Approximately 28% of England’s home smoke alarms failed to operate in the instance of a fire in 2020/21 alone. The failure rate rises to 39% in Scotland and even higher to 50% in Wales.
As the South East’s most trusted provider, it’s our duty to ensure every home we work with is fully protected, and armed with an alarm system that can be relied on when needed most. With over 30 years of experience in fire protection, our technical experts can design a system that suits your family’s needs, building aesthetic and design.
