Planned inspections and servicing to BS 5839, fault repairs and false alarm reduction, so your fire alarm stays reliable and your records stay up to date.
Tell us the panel make and site, and we will schedule the service.
Panel, batteries, devices and links are tested to BS 5839-1.
You receive a certificate, logbook entry and a written note of any faults.
We fix any faults and remind you when the next visit is due.
BS 5839-1 recommends a periodic inspection and test at intervals of no more than six months. The responsible person for a building has a legal duty under the Regulatory Reform (Fire Safety) Order 2005 to keep fire safety systems maintained, and insurers will usually ask to see your records.
Each visit covers the control panel, power supplies and standby batteries, a sample of detectors and call points (with every device tested over the year), sounders and beacons, links to door releases and other systems, and the logbook. We record any faults and recommend fixes in writing.
Between our visits, someone on site should test the alarm weekly using a different call point each time. We show your team how to do this and record it in the logbook.
Repeated false alarms disrupt staff and pupils and can lead to complacency. We find the cause, whether it is a detector in the wrong place, the wrong type of detector or a wiring fault, and fix it.
Unhappy with your current provider, or they no longer support your panel? We can usually take over servicing of most makes and will tell you honestly if anything needs upgrading.
BS 5839-1 recommends at least every six months. Some sites, such as those with higher risk or more frequent false alarms, benefit from more frequent visits.
Usually, yes. Send us the panel make and model and we will confirm.
A service certificate after each visit, an updated logbook entry and a written note of anything that needs attention.
Yes. A weekly test by someone on site is recommended, using a different call point each week. We will show you how.
