Yes we do, we handle fire evacuation drills and fire risk assessments: 

Fire Evacuation drills

A fire evacuation drill is done to simulate an emergency situation and is used to evaluate the effectiveness of the evacuation procedure, ensure everyone involved closely follows procedures and to identify any weak points or improvements.

During a fire evacuation drill it is highly recommended that all staff participate. This will help to ensure everyone remains familiar with the evacuation process and any new employees can experience and learn the procedures in place.

It is a legal requirement that a fire drill should be carried out at least once per year and the results must be recorded as part of fire safety records.

Fire Risk Assessment

If you are the person responsible for the premises, as stipulated by The Regulatory Reform (Fire Safety) Order 2005, a fire risk assessment is a legal requirement that must be regularly carried out and reviewed. You must keep a written record of the fire risk assessment if your company/business has 5 or more people.

When carrying out the assessment you should:

• Identify potential fire hazards
• Identify people who may be at risk
• Evaluate risks and minimise/remove them wherever possible
• Record findings of the assessment
• Review and update regularly

There are several factors which influence the cost of your fire alarm system such as:

- The type of fire alarm system. Different fire alarm systems vary in cost depending on what is required for the fire risk level of your building.

- The size and layout of your building. If your building is larger, you will typically require a larger set-up for your fire alarm system. Also, more complex building layouts can lead to more complex fire alarm systems - increasing the cost.

Based on the above we can’t give exact figures without understanding your individual requirements for a commercial fire alarm system. However, our team can work with you to design and install a compliant fire alarm system which suits your budget and meets regulations. For an exact quote contact our team today. 

Commercial fire alarms must be serviced every 6 months following BS 5839 (British Standard for fire detection & alarm systems).

Not servicing your fire alarm system in accordance with this regulation can have significant legal consequences and increase fire risks. Regular servicing ensures your fire alarm system operates at peak performance and helps extend its lifespan.

As well as regular servicing, you should conduct weekly testing and annual inspections of your fire alarm system. Neglecting regular maintenance increases the risk of your fire alarm system not working during an emergency, putting the lives of your employees and your property in danger.

The key regulations for fire alarm systems in the UK are as follows:

- Fire alarm systems must be installed in accordance with the size, layout and fire risk level of your building.

- Fire risk assessments must be conducted to determine the type of fire alarm system required and to ensure the fire alarm system operates efficiently.

- Fire alarm systems must be tested weekly.

- A professional engineer is required to service your fire alarm systems every 6 months.

- You must make sure your fire alarm system is compliant.
