Fire Alarms
Are You Safe?
Would you know immediately if a fire was to start anywhere inside your home? Within minutes a small fire can grow to sufficient size to block an exit route and prevent evacuation.
Even at home, an early warning system can be the difference between life and death...
We can install smoke detectors in your home linked to your burglar alarm so that you receive 24 hour protection regardless of the system being set. This can also be linked to the Fire Service giving an automatic response in the event of alarm activation.
We offer a full 24 hour back-up service, monitoring and annual maintenance program.
Detection
We supply and install a range of equipment which provides detection to suit all environments. We will also test, service and repair your systems.
There are many types of fire alarm systems, each suited to different building types and applications. We'll discuss your exact needs, and recommend the best solution for your property.

P2 Type Fire Alarm System
Detection should be provided in parts of the building where the risk of ignition in high and/or the contents are particularly valuable. Category 2 systems provide fire detection in specified parts of the building where there is either high risk or where business disruption must be minimised.

L1 Type Fire Alarm System
A category L1 system is designed for the protection of life and which has automatic detectors installed throughout all areas of the building (including roof spaces and voids)with the aim of providing the earliest possible warning. A Category L1 system is likely to be appropriate for the majority of residential care premises. In practice detectors should be placed in nearly all spaces and voids. With category 1 systems, the whole of a building is covered apart from minor exceptions.

L2 Type Fire Alarm System
A category L2 system designed for the protection of life and which has automatic detectors installed in escape routes, rooms adjoining escape routes and high hazard rooms. In a medium sized premises (sleeping no more than ten residents) a category L2 system is ideal. These fire alarm systems are identical to an L3 system but with additional detection in an area where there is a high chance of ignition e.g. kitchen) or where the risk to people is particularly increased (e.g. sleeping risk).

L3 Type Fire Alarm System
This category is designed to give early warning to everyone. Detectors should be placed in all escape routes and all rooms that open onto escape routes. Category 3 systems provide more extensive cover than category 4. The objective is to warn the occupants of the building early enough to ensure that all are able to exit the building before escape routes become impassable.

L4 Type Fire Alarm System
Category 4 systems cover escape routes and circulation areas only. Therefore, detectors will be placed in escape routes, although this may not be suitable depending on the risk assessment or if the size and complexity of a building is increased. Detectors might be sited in other areas of the building, but the objective is to protect the escape route.

L5 Type Fire Alarm System
This is the ‘all other situations’ category e.g. computer rooms which may be protected with an extinguishing system triggered by automatic detection. Category 5 systems are the ‘custom’ category and relate to some special requirement that cannot be covered by any other category.
