Our Services
Fire Alarm Systems
Our company has professionally qualified staff to implement all elements of fire alarm systems from design and installation through to commissioning and maintenance. No project is too large or too small to receive the attention to detail that sets us apart from the run of the mill company. All engineering staff have been trained in the installation and use of fire alarm systems with particular emphasis on wirefree products.
We are particularly proud of our track record for completion of our installation work on or before the scheduled completion date. We are used to working in our client's premises with the minimum of fuss sometimes to the extent that the occupier is unaware of the work being carried out. This is very important in heritage premises like large private homes where privacy is crucial.
Schools are another type of installation where any disruption to the normal functioning of the premises cannot be allowed and we are proud to have been associated with a number of private and public institutions where fire safety is becoming a greater consideration both in terms of life and property protection.
All major insurance companies are very happy to approve wirefree installations installed to meet the latest British Standards and the speed of their installation enables urgent needs to be satisfied. There are no excessive ongoing maintenance penalties in connection with battery powered devices as with the introduction of alkaline cells replacement costs are a fraction of that associated with the earlier lithium cells but still provide a lifespan in excess of 4 years.
We are proud to have achieved registration to BAFE SP 203, the fire alarm industry standard for design, installation, commissioning, and maintenance of all types of fire alarm system. Our work is regularly assessed by an independent body to confirm that these high standards are continually being achieved.
Voice Alarm
Voice alarm systems are also available in the entire product range and have many forms of application with up to 200 different messages being available as standard.
Aspirating Systems
We are trained in the use and application of aspirating systems, which work well with radio systems particularly in heritage premises. Aspirating systems use piped sampling points to sample for the presence of smoke in the building. The sensitivity of an aspirating sensor can be fine tuned to operate in all types of environment and provide a very reliable means of detection.
All installations are guaranteed for a minimum of one year from date of installation and in some instances we can offer longer warrantee periods with after sales service as required.
Staff Location Systems
Staff location and patient call systems are available using radio technology. The system combines the location identification capabilities of optically enhanced signal communication with the integrity of a fully monitored radio system. Combining these technologies creates two unique benefits over traditional systems. Firstly the radio system provides a secure backup ensuring all alarms are received, and secondly it allows all components in the system to be interconnected without the need for cable.
Intruder Alarm Systems
Whilst wirefree intruder alarm technology is not as readily applied than that for fire alarm systems due to the general use of much smaller cables in conventionally wired systems, there are, never the less, advantages for the use of this product. We would only use class 6 radio units to enable the system to benefit from police response which would be the norm in heritage premises. It may be that cables can be installed for part of the system such as keypads and external bells with the remainder of the detection being operated by radio.
Whichever system suits your premises we can provide you with an installation tailored to your individual needs.
Disability Discrimination Act.
Application of the requirements of the DDA means certain buildings require provision for the hard of hearing and refuge areas for disabled persons. Both applications benefit from wireless technology in the provision of specialist systems to alert the hard of hearing in the case of an emergency and by allowing two way speech communications with disabled persons taking refuge at a temporary safe place until they can be evacuated. We are able to provide both of these services as an approved installer by the manufacturer.
Other Security Products
To complement our fire and security activities we can also offer our expertise in the use of access controls and CCTV systems.
These systems are not generally wirefree although some elements can produce a satisfactory performance using wirefree technology. However, we can advise our clients which system is most appropriate for their application and serves their interests best.
