Understanding fire risk assessment: Surrey and beyond
Many of our installations are triggered by a fire risk assessment in Surrey or by a change in building use. This assessment is a legal requirement for all non-domestic premises and identifies potential hazards, those at risk, and the adequacy of existing precautions. If your assessment has recommended improvements, we can design and install systems to address every point raised.
We work closely with qualified fire risk assessors and ensure that your fire alarm solution aligns with the recommendations, giving you peace of mind and clear evidence of compliance for insurers and regulators.

What are the different types of fire alarms?
Understanding the technology helps you make an informed choice. The core difference lies in how these systems communicate information about a fire’s location.
Conventional fire alarms
These systems divide your property into zones (e.g., “Ground Floor North”). When a detector is activated, the control panel identifies the zone but not the specific device. This is a cost-effective solution for smaller properties.
Addressable fire alarms
In these advanced systems, every detector, call point, and sounder has a unique address. The control panel can identify the exact location of the activation, down to the specific device. This allows for a much faster, more targeted emergency response and is the standard for commercial and large-scale buildings.
Wireless fire alarms
These can be either conventional or addressable in their logic. Their key differentiator is that they communicate via secure radio signals instead of physical cabling. This makes them ideal for buildings where installing wires is difficult, impractical, or too disruptive.
