Fire Detection and Alarm Systems
Fire alarm systems are a critical component of any business’s fire safety plan. They are designed to detect fires at the earliest possible stage, allowing for quick response and minimizing damage to property and risk to life.
Design, Install and Commission
We design fire alarm systems around the layout and use of your premises, working with you to understand your fire risk assessment and operational needs. Our team then installs and commissions the system, tests its operation and provides the documentation you need to understand and manage it with confidence.
Remote monitoring
A fire alarm needs to reach the right people when it activates, including when your premises are unoccupied. We can connect your system to an alarm receiving centre using CSL DualCom alarm signalling, so alarm signals can be monitored and handled in line with your agreed response plan. We’ll recommend a suitable signalling arrangement for your premises and make sure you understand who will be contacted and what happens next. Find out more about DualCom alarm signalling here.
existing system takeover and upgrade
You don’t need to replace a working fire alarm system to change maintenance providers. We can assess your existing installation, review its service history and documentation, and identify any faults or gaps that need attention. Once we understand the system and agree a maintenance plan with you, we can take over its ongoing inspections, servicing and fault support, providing clear records from the outset.
Conventional Systems
Zoned detection, helping staff identify the general area where an alarm has been triggered. They can be a practical choice for smaller or less complex premises where zone-level information gives your team what it needs to respond. We’ll assess the layout and use of your building to determine whether a conventional system is the right fit.
Wireless Systems
For occupied, listed or multi-building sites where cabling is impractical.
Integrated systems
Door release through access control for escape, with links to CCTV and intruder alarms
Emergency Response
When a fire alarm activates, a clear response plan helps everyone act quickly. We can arrange keyholding as part of your agreed service, giving an authorised responder access to the premises when needed. Where your system is connected to an alarm receiving centre, the centre can notify your nominated contacts and, where appropriate under its procedures, request a fire brigade response. We’ll help you establish the contact and escalation arrangements so everyone knows what happens when an alarm is raised.
Addressable systems
Every detector is named at the panel, identifying the individual detector or call point that has activated, giving your team a more precise location than a zone-level alert. This can be particularly useful across larger or more complex premises, where quickly locating an alarm or fault matters
Preventative Maintenance
Regular maintenance helps you find faults early and keep your fire alarm system ready when it matters. We provide scheduled inspections, clear service reports and a response to faults in line with your agreed service arrangements.
