Fire Alarm Systems Upgrade
UK fire safety regulations, improving building safety, and protecting lives and property. Older systems may not meet the current standards outlined in BS 5839-1:2017, which governs fire detection and alarm systems in non-domestic premises.
Why upgrade?
Compliance: New legislation and insurance requirements often mandate updated systems.
Reliability: Modern systems reduce false alarms and provide faster detection.
Integration: Advanced systems can connect to building management or emergency lighting.
Accessibility: Upgrades support visual and vibration alerts for vulnerable users.
Typical Upgrade Process
-
Site Survey – A qualified engineer assesses your existing system and building layout.
-
System Design – A new layout is planned to ensure full coverage and regulation compliance.
-
Installation – New alarms, detectors, and panels are fitted, usually with minimal disruption.
-
Testing & Commissioning – Final checks ensure the system is fully operational.
-
Certification – A certificate of compliance is issued, often required by insurers or local authorities.
Stay Compliant & Protected
Regular maintenance and timely upgrades are not just legal requirements—they are critical for safety. Consult a BAFE-certified provider for advice tailored to your premises.
