Fire Alarms - Fire Detection - Fire Risk Assessment
Fire detection and fire alarm systems are designed to protect both property and life. The type of system required for each building is established by a fire risk assessment. Fire systems comprise of a control panels which communicate with the detection devices (smoke detectors, manual call points, heat detectors etc) and the alarm devices (electronic sounders and visual alarms). Systems are commonly wired in fire rated cable however there are wireless systems available that operate on radio frequency.

Fire Risk Assessment
The Fire Precautions (Workplace) Regulations 1997 as amended in 1999 require just about all UK business to conduct a fire risk assessment on their workplace. As an employer you are responsible for ensuring that you comply with the legislation.
If you have a fire certificate you still need to conduct a fire risk assessment as they relate to two different pieces of legislation.
There are five elements to a fire risk assessment:
- Identify fire hazards
- Identify people at risk
- Evaluate, remove, reduce and protect from risk
- Record, plan, inform, instruct and train
- Keep the assessment under review and revise when required
Does it apply to me?
- You are legally obliged to carry out a Fire Risk Assessment and update it on a regular basis. This is irrespective of size of company and the market in which you operate.
- If you or your company employs five or more people this must be demonstrated by a hard copy present on the premises and available for inspection.
- A fire risk assessment is not the same as a fire certificate. If you have a fire certificate you still need to carry out a risk assessment.
- As an employer you are responsible for ensuring that you comply with the fire detection legislation.
- Many insurance companies offer policy discounts to any business that has carried out a fire risk assessment.
Unless you're an expert it can be surprisingly hard to spot potential fire hazards. Our fire risk assessment services will help you protect your premises and people by giving you full visibility of what the fire risks are and where they lie.

All non domestic premises with 5 or more employees and all shared or common parts of a property with more than one occupier are legally required to produce a written fire risk assessment. Completing a risk assessment is not only a legal requirement under the Fire Safety Order but it can also deliver realistic benefits to employers and their company. By carrying out a fire risk assessment and actioning the recommendations of this report make the likelihood of a fire and loss of life or injury greatly reduced.
The assessment consists not only of an organised physical check of all parts of the premises within scope but also a careful examination of maintenance and test regimes, fire evacuation procedures, fire training and the keeping of appropriate records. The information gathered will be presented in a report, which will highlight any deficiencies captured as a series of prioritised action for remedial action and to focus attention on the critical areas.
