Fire Risk Assessments
Our certified assessors conduct detailed fire risk assessments tailored to your building type and legal obligations. We identify hazards, recommend corrective actions, and ensure compliance with the Fire Safety Order 2005. Regular reviews keep your documentation audit-ready while protecting occupants and property.
Fire Alarm Systems
We design, install, and maintain BS 5839-compliant fire alarm systems for commercial and residential properties. Our solutions include wireless options ideal for listed buildings and HMOs. Regular servicing and 24/7 monitoring ensure system reliability and regulatory compliance.
Fire Extinguisher Servicing
We supply, install, and service all extinguisher types to meet BS 5306 standards. Our technicians perform annual servicing and monthly inspections to ensure operational readiness. Correct extinguisher selection and placement help mitigate specific fire risks in your premises.
Emergency Lighting
Our BS 5266-compliant emergency lighting systems guide occupants safely during power failures. We design layouts tailored to your building's evacuation routes and occupancy type. Regular testing and maintenance ensure reliable performance when needed most.
Fire Door Inspections
We inspect, repair, and certify fire doors to BS 8214 standards. Our checks cover gaps, seals, closers, and hardware to ensure doors perform effectively during fires. Quarterly inspections for residential buildings over 11m meet current regulatory requirements.
Questions
How often do I need a fire risk assessment in London buildings?
London Fire Brigade requires current assessments. Annual reviews are recommended, especially for commercial premises and multi-occupancy sites, to maintain audit readiness and legal compliance.
What qualifies a fire alarm system under BS 5839?
BS 5839 compliance requires professional design, installation, and maintenance. Systems must match building categories (L1, L3, M), include logbooks, weekly tests, and six-monthly servicing to meet legal and insurance standards.
Why choose wireless fire alarms for HMOs or heritage buildings?
Wireless systems offer fast, non-disruptive installation ideal for listed buildings and HMOs. They provide compliant protection without damaging interiors, with easy expansion options for London's retrofit and heritage conversion projects.
What's included in a London fire door inspection?
Inspections check gaps, seals, closers, hinges, and certification. Non-compliant doors are identified, and repair recommendations provided. Residential buildings over 11m require quarterly checks under Fire Safety (England) Regulations 2022.
