What grade of fire alarm do I need?

It depends on the building and its use. We survey the property and advise on the correct BS 5839 grade and category — for example Grade D for many rented homes, or an addressable system for larger commercial premises.

Do you service and repair existing fire alarms?

Yes — we service, test, repair and take over maintenance of existing fire alarm and detection systems, as well as designing and installing new ones.

Are fire alarms a legal requirement?

For most commercial premises, HMOs and rented properties a compliant fire detection system is a legal requirement under the Regulatory Reform (Fire Safety) Order 2005 and BS 5839. We advise on the right grade and category of system for your building and provide the certification you need.

How often should a fire alarm be tested?

Under BS 5839, commercial fire alarm systems should be tested weekly by the responsible person and serviced by a competent engineer at least every six months. We offer scheduled servicing and testing across East London.

Do you install and certify fire alarms for HMOs and landlords?

Yes — we design, install, commission and certificate fire alarm and detection systems for HMOs, flats and rental properties to the grade and category your local authority requires, and provide the completion certificate for your records.
