Our Commercial Fire Alarm Solutions

Survey, Design & Installation.

Addressable Fire Alarm Systems

Each detector has a unique address, so the control panel tells you exactly where the alarm has been triggered. Ideal for larger premises, multi-room offices and buildings with complex layouts. Faster response, easier fault-finding and zone-by-zone management.

Conventional Fire Alarm Systems

A reliable, cost-effective option for smaller commercial premises. Detectors are grouped into zones, and the panel identifies which zone has activated. Simple to operate and maintain.

Wireless Fire Alarm Systems

Where cabling is impractical — listed buildings, temporary setups or premises where disruption must be minimised. Full BS 5839-1 compliance without the wiring.

Emergency Lighting

Maintained and non-maintained emergency lighting to illuminate escape routes during a power failure. Installed alongside your fire alarm or as a standalone system. BS 5266 compliant.

Manual Call Points, Sounders & Visual Alarms

Break-glass call points at exits, sounders audible throughout the building, and visual alarm devices (VADs) for noisy environments or where hearing-impaired staff or visitors need to be alerted.

Maintenance and Fault Support

Fire Alarm Systems are used constantly — so reliability matters. We offer maintenance and responsive support to keep your Fire panels working and your call points functioning correctly

Do I legally need a fire alarm in my commercial property?

The Regulatory Reform (Fire Safety) Order 2005 requires the responsible person to ensure appropriate fire detection and warning. Your fire risk assessment will determine the type and extent of system required. Most commercial premises need at least a basic fire alarm system.
