FOR LISTED BUILDINGS
Providing fire alarm systems for listed buildings requires a specialist set of skills. Our team has those skills. We have spent many years installing fire alarms in commercial properties across London, many of which are listed. We know exactly how to work within a listed building and will take all aspects of its listed status into consideration when we are completing any kind of work. If you want your fire alarm system to have minimum impact upon your property, we can discuss wireless options with you which won’t need to be wired in.

INSTALLATION
We can install various types of fire alarm systems, including:
- Addressable
All fire alarms and detectors will be connected to one central system, giving them their own addresses. If an alarm is set off, its exact location will be shown on the main control panel. This makes it easy to see where the device is that has been activated, pointing you in the direction of any potential fire hazards and allowing you to distinguish actual fires quickly. The alarms will be wired in for additional reliability.
- Wireless
Despite being in existence since the 1980s, this type of fire alarm technology has really come into its own since Wi-Fi has become widely available. The components can be easily linked together, giving your system more versatility. It is also useful in listed buildings, where you might not want to hardwire in a fire alarm system. The detectors will run on batteries, so regular testing is essential for these types of alarms.
We can also link your fire alarms up with a wider fire safety system, like fire extinguishers and smoke vents. There are various features we can incorporate, including manual call points, smoke and heat detectors, input and output, sounder bases, sounder beacons and advanced fire alarm panels.
MAINTENANCE
We will also be happy to offer you fire alarm systems maintenance, either when you need it or as part of a maintenance contract. Our team can provide thorough fire alarm testing, then complete any maintenance that might be required afterwards. Think of it as being like an MOT. We will ensure we leave you with a fully functioning fire alarm system that is ready to do its job and keep you well protected.
