Supply & Installation: We specify and install conventional, addressable and wireless fire alarm systems to suit domestic and commercial needs. Typical installs include optical smoke detectors, heat detectors, manual call points, sounders and remote annunciation panels. Systems are designed to BS 5839-1 for commercial premises and BS 5839-6 where applicable for domestic and HMO properties, with full design drawings and clear zone labelling supplied at handover.
Servicing & Certification: Routine testing, periodic maintenance and emergency repairs are carried out by City & Guilds-qualified electricians. We provide commissioning certificates, completion documentation and service records that demonstrate compliance for landlords, building managers and insurers. Our small, focused team also liaises with fire safety officers and can integrate alarms with emergency lighting, fire panel monitoring and door-release systems where required.

Frequently Asked Questions
How often should my fire alarm system be serviced?
Service frequency depends on the building type and system standard — commercial systems typically require more frequent inspections than domestic alarms. We follow BS 5839 guidance and provide a tailored maintenance schedule during the survey, plus reminders and digital test records after every visit.
Will you provide certification after installation?
Yes. Every installation is commissioned and supplied with an installation certificate and logbook that detail system design, testing and commissioning. Those documents help satisfy insurers, fire safety officers and landlords.
Do you install interlinked alarms for HMOs and flats?
We design interlinked solutions for HMOs, purpose-built flats and maisonettes, using addressable or wireless interlinking where appropriate. Designs ensure adequate detection coverage, correct zoning and compliance with BS 5839 and local housing regulations.
Can you service alarms installed by another company?
Yes. Our team will inspect and service existing systems, carry out remedial works if needed, and issue test certificates once the system meets the required standards. We diagnose faults, replace aged components and advise on upgrades to improve reliability.
What should I do if my alarm keeps activating falsely?
Persistent false alarms usually indicate detector placement, contamination or wiring issues. Contact our 24/7 emergency line for a rapid fault-finding visit; we’ll isolate the cause, replace or reposition detectors and adjust sensitivity within the limits of BS 5839 guidance.
